About the role

A US-based technology and media company operating consumer platforms at national scale is looking for a hands-on Senior AI Engineer. This is one of their first dedicated AI engineering hires: you’ll design, build, deploy and operate production AI applications, while helping set up the engineering foundation for a growing AI team. Most of the role is hands-on coding. You’ll work 100% remotely from LATAM in a small, senior and autonomous team.

What you’ll do

• Turn business problems into production AI solutions: APIs, serverless functions, event-driven workflows, data pipelines and model integrations

• Build LLM workflows using prompting, structured outputs, retrieval, tool use and agentic patterns

• Work on near-term use cases such as speech-to-text, summarization and high-volume LLM inference, and grow into search, classification, automation and conversational experiences

• Set up a secure multi-developer environment: repo structure, testing conventions, CI/CD, infrastructure as code and onboarding

• Design evaluations, version prompts and models, and manage staged rollouts and rollbacks

• Instrument AI services with logging, tracing, dashboards and alerts, and improve reliability and cost

What we’re looking for

• Strong professional software engineering experience, owning production services end to end

• Strong Python skills: APIs, services, automated tests and data-processing workflows

• Hands-on experience shipping an AI/LLM-backed capability to production, not only prototypes

• Working knowledge of LLM evaluation, retrieval, structured outputs and latency/cost trade-offs

• Production experience with cloud services, infrastructure as code, CI/CD and observability

• Clear communication and good judgment in ambiguous situations

• Advanced English (B2+), spoken and written

Nice to have

• Event-driven serverless architectures, queues and high-volume async processing

• RAG, semantic search, agents or human-in-the-loop applications

• Speech-to-text, open-weight model serving or model fine-tuning

• Analytical SQL

What we offer

• 100% remote work

• Long-term project with a US technology company

• Collaboration with international teams

• 15 days of paid vacation per year

• Your country’s national holidays off
