Senior AI Engineer
- LocationHyderabad / Remote
- DepartmentAI
- TypeFull-Time
- Experience5+ years
- CompensationCompetitive
- Apply byOpen until filled
“Join our AI Practice and build production AI workflows for our clients — automations, agents, document processing, and integrations. Real engineering, real production code, real impact. You'll work directly with senior engineers, AI specialists, and clients on end-to-end builds.”
What you’ll do
- Lead end-to-end AI workflow engagements for 2–3 clients at a time — discovery, architecture, build, ship, monitor.
- Architect production AI systems using n8n, LangChain, custom Python services, and direct LLM APIs (Claude, GPT-4o, open-source models).
- Make the build-vs-buy decisions on every engagement — when n8n suffices, when custom code is needed, when fine-tuning makes sense.
- Build observability into every workflow — logs, traces, drift detection, cost monitoring, automated alerts.
- Debug production issues across LLM behavior, integration failures, and data quality. Your code runs at 2 AM whether or not you're awake.
- Mentor 2–3 junior AI engineers — code review, architecture reviews, weekly 1:1s.
- Contribute to internal tooling — our shared n8n nodes, internal AI evaluation harness, prompt libraries.
What we’re looking for
- 5+ years of software engineering experience, with at least 2 years in AI/ML or LLM-powered systems.
- Production experience with at least one major LLM provider (Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, AWS Bedrock, or open-source via vLLM/Ollama).
- Strong Python — async, type hints, testing, package management. Comfort with at least one framework: FastAPI, Pydantic, LangChain, LlamaIndex.
- Experience with workflow tools (n8n preferred, or Make, Zapier, Temporal) — and clarity on when to use them vs. custom code.
- Vector databases and embeddings experience (pgvector, Pinecone, Qdrant, Weaviate, or similar).
- Comfort with debugging non-deterministic systems — prompt engineering, eval harnesses, A/B testing LLM outputs.
- Strong written communication — you'll write architecture documents, postmortems, and client reports.
Bonus points for
- Open-source contributions to AI tooling (LangChain, LlamaIndex, n8n nodes, etc.).
- Experience fine-tuning models on domain-specific data.
- Built and maintained an internal LLM evaluation harness or eval suite.
- Background in agencies or consulting — comfort working directly with non-technical clients.
- Public presence — blog posts, conference talks, podcasts about AI engineering.
