Job Description

We’re partnered with a fast-growing applied AI company building production grade AI systems that are deployed directly into customer environments. This role sits on a small, high-output team focused on AI agents and large scale AI evaluations, with a strong backend engineering foundation.

If you’re interested in shipping real AI systems (not demos) and working in a high-intensity environment, this is a rare career opportunity.

What You’ll Be Working On

  • Build and deploy AI agents that operate in real-world, customer facing workflows
  • Design and implement AI evaluation frameworks to measure quality, reliability, and performance of models and agents
  • Develop backend services and APIs supporting agent orchestration, data flow, and evaluation pipelines
  • Work across data, models, and infrastructure to move systems from prototype to production
  • Collaborate directly with customers to adapt agents to real use cases and constraints

Ideal Background

  • Experience or strong interest in applied AI, AI engineering, or forward-deployed systems
  • Solid backend engineering fundamentals (APIs, services, debugging production systems)
  • Familiarity with LLMs, agents, or evaluation methodologies is a strong plus
  • Comfortable in customer-facing situations and fast-changing requirements
  • Python, Go (or similar backend language)
  • Agent frameworks such as LangChain, LangGraph, or custom-built systems

Culture & Expectations

  • High-intensity schedule: Monday–Saturday
  • Fast feedback, high ownership, steep learning curve
  • Team includes engineers from top engineering schools and elite technical environments
  • Best fit for builders who enjoy pressure and execution

Compensation

  • Depends on experience, junior candidates up to 150K, senior candidates up to 400K.

If you want to move fast, work hard, and build serious applied AI systems early in your career, this role is worth a conversation.
