Position Title:
Senior AI Platform Engineer
Job Description:
Senior AI Platform Engineer
Location:
This role requires associates to be in-office 1 - 2 days per week, fostering collaboration and connectivity, while providing flexibility to support productivity and work-life balance. This approach combines structured office engagement with the autonomy of virtual work, promoting a dynamic and adaptable workplace. Alternate locations may be considered if candidates reside within a commuting distance from an office. Please note that per our policy on hybrid/virtual work, candidates not within a reasonable commuting distance from the posting location(s) will not be considered for employment, unless an accommodation is granted as required by law.
The
Senior AI Platform Engineer
will design, build, and operate production AI systems that power platform experiences: RAG pipelines, model endpoints, evaluation harnesses, guardrails, and multi tenant AI services published through a developer hub/marketplace.
How You Will Make an Impact
Lead end to end AI solutioning: problem framing, data sourcing, labeling strategy, model/LLM selection, and safety considerations.
Build retrieval augmented generation and agentic workflows: document processing, chunking/embedding strategies, vector indexing, prompt/chain design, tool use, and guardrails (content filters, policy enforcement).
Implement evaluation with golden datasets, automatic metrics, rubric based grading, and human in the loop reviews; run A/B and interleaving tests.
Productionize inference (synchronous, batch, streaming) with autoscaling, caching, request routing/fallbacks, cost and token/latency budgets, and kill switch patterns.
Establish LLMOps/MLOps foundations: experiment tracking, model registry, data/model lineage, governance, CI/CD for models/prompts, and safe rollback.
Instrument AI observability (prompt traces, quality drift, hallucination/safety events, per tenant cost dashboards); drive continual improvement cycles.
Partner with platform engineers to expose AI capabilities as APIs/SDKs, publish to the marketplace with metadata, versioning, and deprecation policies.
Collaborate with security, privacy, and risk on data minimization, access controls, PII handling, and policy aligned evaluation, document tradeoffs and decisions.
Mentor engineers and data scientists; create reusable evaluation harnesses, prompt libraries, and templates that accelerate feature delivery.
Minimum Requirements Requires a Bachelor’s degree in a highly quantitative field (Computer Science, Machine Learning, Operational Research, Statistics, Mathematics, etc.) or equivalent degree and 6 or more years of experience; or any combination of education and experience in configuration management, which would provide an equivalent background.
Preferred Skills, Capabilities & Experiences
Strong Python plus one systems language; experience with model serving (batch/online), GPU utilization, and optimization (quantization, distillation).
Practical knowledge of vector databases, embedding generation, prompt/chain orchestration, and evaluation methodologies for generative systems.
Experience integrating with feature stores, catalogs/registries, and data governance controls in cloud environments.
Familiarity with responsible AI topics (safety, privacy, bias) and how to operationalize them in production.
