JOB DESCRIPTION
client in Houston, TX in need of an AI Engineer to play a critical role in designing, training, and deploying advanced machine learning and generative AI solutions that address complex, real-world challenges. You will be working on cutting-edge AI initiatives, large language models (LLMs), agentic workflows, and multimodal systems, delivering impactful and responsible AI applications at enterprise scale. This is a hybrid role which requires 3 days onsite, 2 days remote in Houston, TX. Responsibilities:

Design, develop, and train machine learning and deep learning models for production use
Build agentic AI systems, including multi-step reasoning workflows, tool using agents, and autonomous or semi-autonomous processes
Evaluate, customize, and fine-tune open-source and commercial large language models (LLMs) for domain-specific use cases
Develop impactful AI applications that deliver measurable business and operational value
Design robust ML systems capable of handling multimodal data (text, tabular data, images, documents, etc.)
Apply advanced statistical analysis and machine learning techniques to large, complex datasets
Leverage state-of-the-art Generative AI techniques such as Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG), prompt engineering, embeddings, and model orchestration
Lead the design and implementation of AI solutions leveraging Microsoft AI and Azure services, and open-source LLM models (e.g. HuggingFace, etc.)
Collaborate closely with product managers, domain experts, data engineers, and software engineers to define and deliver AI-driven solutions
Participate in fast-paced proof-of-concepts (POCs) and pilots to validate solution designs
Ensure best practices for MLOps, including CI/CD, monitoring, versioning, and lifecycle management
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Mathematics, Engineering, Data Science, or a related field (Master's or PhD preferred)
Proven experience as a Machine Learning Engineer, AI Engineer, or similar senior-level role

Expertise in Python and experience with production-quality codebases (experience with C#, Java, or similar languages is a plus)
Hands-on experience with deep learning frameworks such as PyTorch, TensorFlow, or Keras
Strong experience working with language foundation models and techniques for adapting them to specific use cases (fine-tuning, prompt engineering, RAG, evaluation)
Experience working with both open-source LLMs (e.g., LLaMA, Mistral, Falcon) and commercial LLM platforms
Familiarity with CI/CD practices across the model lifecycle
Solid understanding of software architecture, data structures, and data modeling
Excellent communication skills with the ability to explain complex technical concepts to diverse audiences
Strong analytical thinking and problem-solving skills
Ability to work effectively in cross-functional, collaborative teams
Nice to have:
Experience designing, building, and maintaining AI solutions on commercial cloud platforms, especially Microsoft Azure
