Job Summary
We are building a best-in-class AI team focused on delivering advanced capabilities that empower our data organization. This is not a role for theoretical research; it is for an AI Engineer with a strong Software Engineering backbone.
You will be expected to be highly independent, taking ownership of problems from end-to-end. We value "Modern Productivity"—you should leverage LLMs and AI coding assistants to bypass boilerplate and ship code faster. In our view, manual line-by-line coding is outdated; we want engineers who use every tool at their disposal to increase output without sacrificing reasoning or quality.
Stack Highlights:
Core: Expert Python (Non-negotiable), PostgreSQL + pgvector, SQLAlchemy.
AI/LLM: Azure OpenAI, LangChain, Langfuse, Multi-agent orchestration.
Productivity: ChatGPT/Copilot for development, Docker, async I/O.
Key Responsibilities
- Independent System Building: Own the design and implementation of scalable ML solutions, moving rapidly from problem statement to working code.
- Classification & Attribution: Build and fine-tune systems for complex data, such as identifying ad creatives or global brand deduplication by cross-referencing government registries.
- Advanced Reasoning: Implement "Chain of Thought" prompting and multi-agent workflows (e.g., classification agents vs. reasoning agents) to solve complex attribution tasks.
- Data Engineering Rigor: Optimize vectorization, manage migrations via Alembic, and ensure high-throughput ingestion with minimal supervision.
- Operational Excellence: Implement guardrails and observability (Langfuse) to ensure that high-velocity output remains explainable and robust.
Key Qualifications
- Academic Foundation: Strong degree in Computer Science or Telecommunications (Teleco).
- Software Rigor: You think like a developer. Clean code, architecture, and scalability are your default settings.
- The "Hacker" Spirit: Active participation in Hackathons or a portfolio of ambitious side projects. We want to see that you build things because you love solving problems.
- Extreme Independence: Proven ability to thrive in international roles without constant lead structure or heavy supervision.
- Technical Mastery:
- * Expert Python (typing, async, performance).
- Deep SQL & Vector DB knowledge (pg_trgm, HNSW).
- Experience building and deploying RAG pipelines and LLM agents.
Skill Focus for 2026
- Vision-based ML: Using reasoning to correctly attribute visual ad creatives.
- Context Optimization: Utilizing window context detection to improve system reasoning.
