Who we are:
AI is the new electricity: Just as electricity transformed numerous industries starting 100 years ago, AI is now poised to do the same. AI Fund is a venture studio founded by Dr. Andrew Ng in 2017. Our portfolio companies use AI technology to build applications across numerous industry sectors. The AI Fund team combines their experiences as AI pioneers, entrepreneurs, venture capitalists, investors, and operators. We are backed by a $390-million dollar fund from top-tier global corporations and VC firms. Our purpose is to build AI companies that move humanity forward.
What We’re Looking For: For the Visiting Engineer role, we are seeking an AI Full-Stack Engineer with fluency in full-stack development and proficiency in rapid prototyping. You should possess intense curiosity and leverage modern Generative AI frameworks. The ideal candidate thrives in fast-paced environments where the goal is to quickly build and iterate on full-stack applications leveraging cutting-edge AI techniques, as well as guiding technical vision and defining architectural patterns. You’ll be passionate about staying ahead of the curve in AI—constantly exploring new tools, frameworks, and best practices. You’ll collaborate closely with Andrew Ng to bring experimental ideas to life through functional prototypes. This role puts you in the front row of where AI is heading, working with technologies that are helping shape the future. If you’re driven by ambition, innovation, and the thrill of building what’s next—this is the role for you.
What you will do:
Drive rapid engineering efforts to build full-stack applications using GenAI tools, enabling deep exploration of product ideas, user experiences, and technical feasibility
Apply GenAI building blocks (prompt engineering, graphDBs, vectorDBs, agentic frameworks, evals, and guardrails) to real-world development
Make key decisions around infrastructure and platform choices, balancing short-term prototyping needs with long-term scalability
Collaborate cross-functionally with product, design, and AI experts to create, test, and iterate on new concepts
Use AI-assisted coding tools (e.g., Cursor, Windsurf, GitHub Copilot, Claude Code) to enhance productivity and speed of iteration
Gather user feedback and iterate quickly based on insights to improve usability and effectiveness
Deploy and manage applications on cloud infrastructure (e.g., AWS, GCP, Supabase)
Build and integrate APIs and third‑party services
Participate in architecture discussions and technical planning
Identify and troubleshoot issues across the stack
Contribute to improving development processes, tools, and team practices
Stay current with industry trends and emerging technologies
What you must bring:
Demonstrated experience building applications that incorporate Generative AI
Proficiency with GenAI tools and frameworks: prompt engineering, Retrieval‑Augmented Generation (RAG), vector databases (e.g., Pinecone, Weaviate), agentic platforms (e.g., LangGraph, CrewAI), LLM evals, and guardrails
Experience with front‑end technologies like JavaScript, HTML, CSS, and modern frameworks
Strong back‑end skills, particularly with Python
Familiarity with SQL and NoSQL databases (PostgreSQL, MongoDB, etc.)
Hands‑on experience using AI‑assisted coding tools (e.g., Cursor, Claude Code) and understanding of best practices for effective use
Proven track record of architecting, implementing, and deploying scalable and maintainable AI‑powered systems
Expertise in designing end‑to‑end system architectures involving front‑end, back‑end, APIs, and AI/ML components
Deep curiosity and a fast‑learning mindset—especially around emerging trends in AI
Ability to write scrappy, disposable code for fast prototyping, and clean code for scalable products
Strong communication skills and ability to work collaboratively across disciplines
Nice to have:
Experience gathering user feedback directly and iterating based on insights
Exposure to rapid prototyping methodologies and shipping MVPs
Interest or experience in product design and product thinking
Contributions to open‑source GenAI projects or tools
Familiarity with serverless architectures or edge computing
Prior experience as a technical lead or architect on teams delivering AI‑driven products
Knowledge of advanced architecture patterns (microservices, event‑driven architectures, datastore design)
Experience with large‑scale system design and high‑performance cloud infrastructures
Familiarity with governance, compliance, and security aspects in AI application architecture
$10,000 - $12,000 a month
This is a great opportunity for someone in transition and looking to gain awesome building experience working alongside Andrew Ng. We are only considering candidates within commuting distance from Mountain View. As part of the interview process, you will be asked to complete a 15 minutes AI assessment.
