AI Developer

About the role

This is an AI-First Developer role on the R&D team, focusing on building AI-powered internal tools and data-driven systems that enhance decision-making across the organization.

Responsibilities

• Build AI-powered internal tools and data-driven systems used across the organization - analytics platforms, reporting automation, workflow intelligence.
• Develop AI/ML-driven platforms that process and analyze large-scale operational data from 30M+ sites across our product suite.
• Design and deploy RAG systems, LLM-powered features, and agentic workflows that generate actionable insights for internal teams.
• Build data pipelines that ingest, transform, and serve behavioral and operational data at scale.
• Prototype and ship AI solutions that streamline internal processes, reduce manual effort, and improve decision-making.
• Evaluate and select the right models, frameworks, and infrastructure for each use case - balancing performance, cost, and latency.
• Write clean, well-tested, production-grade Python code with proper error handling, logging, and observability.
• Collaborate with product teams and stakeholders to understand what they need, then build tools they actually use.
• Keep up with the rapidly evolving AI landscape and bring new ideas, tools, and approaches to the team.
• Communicate with the team and support your peers using chat, audio, and video.

Requirements

• 3+ years of professional experience building AI/ML systems in production environments (not just POCs or hackathon projects).
• Strong proficiency in Python, including production-grade practices - proper packaging, testing, type hints, async where appropriate.
• Hands-on experience with LLM frameworks and tools: LangChain, LlamaIndex, or similar. You should be able to build a RAG pipeline from scratch.
• Solid understanding of ML fundamentals - not just API calls, but how models work, when to fine-tune vs prompt engineer, how to evaluate properly.
• Experience with vector databases (Pinecone, ChromaDB, FAISS, Qdrant, or similar) and embedding models.
• Experience building and deploying APIs (FastAPI, Flask, or similar) that serve ML models in production.
• Familiarity with cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and containerization (Docker, Kubernetes).
• Experience with data processing at scale - SQL, pandas, Spark, or similar.
• Clean commit history, proper branching, code review through PRs.
• The ability to iterate and ship ideas quickly without sacrificing code quality.
• Exceptional troubleshooting skills - when something breaks in production at scale, you can diagnose it.
• The ability to keep complex systems simple. Simplicity is a core value.
• Previous remote work experience. You know how to manage your time, communicate proactively, and stay productive without supervision.
• Availability to participate in audio/video meetings and be available on Slack between the hours of 9 AM - 1 PM EST daily.
