We are forming a brand-new AI department and need a first-on-the-ground engineer who can rapidly turn innovative LLM ideas into working demos and educate our team on the importance of automation.

Responsibilities:

  • Prompt Engineering & Orchestration: Craft, iterate, and optimize prompts for APIs (OpenAI, Cohere, Anthropic). Build multi-step chains using LangChain, LlamaIndex, or custom controllers.
  • Vector Search & Retrieval: Implement retrieval-augmented workflows by ingesting documents, indexing embeddings (Pinecone, FAISS, Weaviate), and building similarity search features.
  • Rapid Prototyping: Create interactive AI demos and proofs-of-concept using Streamlit, Gradio, or Next.js for stakeholder feedback.
  • MLOps & Deployment: Implement CI/CD pipelines (e.g., GitLab Actions, Apache Airflow), experiment tracking (MLflow), and model monitoring for reliable production workflows.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Participate in code reviews, architectural discussions, and sprint planning to deliver features end-to-end.

Requirements:

  • Master’s degree in AI and/or Computer Science.
  • Hands-on experience integrating LLM APIs (e.g., OpenAI, Hugging Face Inference).
  • Practical experience fine-tuning LLMs via OpenAI, HuggingFace, or similar APIs.
  • Strong proficiency in Python.
  • Deep expertise in prompt engineering and tools like LangChain or LlamaIndex.
  • Proficiency with vector databases (Pinecone, FAISS, Weaviate) and document embedding pipelines.
  • Proven rapid-prototyping skills using Streamlit or equivalent frameworks for UI demos.
  • Familiarity with containerization (Docker) and at least one orchestration/deployment platform.
  • Excellent communication skills and the ability to frame AI solutions in business terms.

Nice-to-Have:

  • Familiarity with database systems (PostgreSQL, MongoDB) and caching layers (Redis).
  • Open-source contributions or published AI demos.
  • Understanding of cost-optimization, monitoring for LLM usage, and model-API trade-offs.
  • Familiarity with prompt engineering best practices and vibe-coding tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Cursor IDE).
  • Willingness to travel occasionally for team offsites or workshops.

What You Will Get in Return:

  • Competitive Salary: Your skills will be rewarded with a salary that reflects your value.
  • Work-Life Harmony: We value your life outside of work just as much as your time in the office.
  • Annual Performance Bonus: Recognizing your achievements with a well-deserved bonus.
  • Generous Time Off: Our annual leave policy allows you to recharge and enjoy life outside of work.
  • Employee Referral Program: Bring your talented friends on board and get rewarded for your contributions to our team.
  • Comprehensive Health Benefits: A robust medical insurance plan with location-specific benefits and perks.
  • Workation Wonderland: An opportunity to work remotely from anywhere in the world for 30 extra days annually (some restrictions apply).
  • Volunteer Days: Additional paid days to support causes you care about.

Join us at the forefront of the digital assets movement, propelling your career to new heights in a dynamic and rapidly expanding company that values and rewards talent, initiative, and creativity.
