Artificial Intelligence Engineer

Data Science / AI Software Engineer Employment Type: Contract-to-Hire (6 months with intent to convert to FTE) Location: Remote Overview: We are seeking a Data Science / AI Software Engineer to join a global AI and data engineering team focused on building enterprise-grade generative and agentic AI applications. The ideal candidate brings a software engineering background with strong data experience—comfortable integrating large-language-model APIs and creating composable AI architectures rather than developing models from scratch. Key Responsibilities: • Design, develop, and deploy AI-driven applications leveraging generative and agentic AI capabilities. • Build scalable backend and frontend components that integrate with LLM APIs and enterprise data sources. • Develop and optimize data workflows using SQL and Python. • Integrate AI solutions with data platforms and systems such as Snowflake, AWS, or GCP. • Utilize Docker and modern development practices to create modular, composable solutions. • Automate and orchestrate data and AI pipelines to streamline business processes. • Apply best practices in software engineering—version control, modularity, and secure integration. • Collaborate with cross-functional teams including data engineering, data science, and strategy to implement practical AI-driven automation use cases. Qualifications: • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience). • 4–7 years of hands-on software engineering experience. • Proficiency in Python and SQL for backend and data operations. • Experience building AI applications on cloud data platforms (e.g., Snowflake Cortex, AWS Bedrock, Azure OpenAI, or GCP Vertex AI). • Knowledge of Docker, composable architecture, and API integration. • Familiarity with generative AI / agentic AI principles and LLM APIs. • Exposure to machine learning techniques (classification, regression, clustering) a plus. • Excellent problem-solving and communication skills. • Spanish or bilingual capability preferred but not required.
