AI Engineer Jobs

AI engineering at a startup means shipping LLM-powered features into a real product, not running benchmarks against base models. The day-to-day is some mixture of prompt engineering, eval harness writing, RAG pipeline tuning, agent orchestration, and explaining to the founder why GPT-4 hallucinated the customer's billing address. The companies hiring here usually have an existing product getting AI features bolted on, or are building an AI-native product from the first commit. Either way: you own the model, the latency, the cost per request, and whether the answer is right.
