About The Position

We’re looking for a hands-on, execution-oriented GenAI Engineer to help design, implement, and scale generative AI solutions across real client environments. This is not a purely research role – and not a narrow “model tinkering” role either. You’ll operate at the intersection of applied AI engineering, client delivery, and internal capability building, turning promising GenAI concepts into reliable, production-ready solutions. You’ll work closely with Value Engineers, clients, and internal stakeholders to match the right models and architectures to real business problems – especially in regulated, high-stakes environments. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys ownership, thrives in ambiguity, and wants to see their work move from prototype to production.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, AI, Machine Learning, or a related field.
  • Experience delivering technical projects that involve collaboration across stakeholders with varying technical depth.
  • Hands-on familiarity with generative AI concepts (e.g., LLMs, fine-tuning, embeddings) and a strong desire to deepen expertise.
  • Experience deploying or working with models on cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP).
  • Strong communication skills – you can explain why and how, not just what.
  • Ability to take ownership, manage priorities, and deliver outcomes in fast-moving environments.

Nice To Haves

  • Exposure to MLOps practices, containerization, or model monitoring.
  • Experience with AI/NLP applications beyond basic experimentation.
  • Familiarity with AI evaluation methods and performance metrics.
  • Interest in ethical AI, governance, and data security principles.
  • Experience in regulated industries (a plus, not a blocker).

Responsibilities

  • Design, implement, fine-tune, and deploy generative AI and ML solutions aligned to real business use cases.
  • Translate technical and business requirements into scalable AI architectures and implementation plans.
  • Lead or support end-to-end AI solution delivery, from experimentation through deployment and iteration.
  • Serve as the primary technical voice on GenAI initiatives, ensuring clarity across technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Evaluate and apply appropriate models (e.g., GPT-based LLMs, BERT-style architectures, or other approaches) based on problem context.
  • Fine-tune, integrate, and operationalize models with support from specialized teammates when needed.
  • Contribute to decisions around model performance, cost, latency, and reliability tradeoffs.
  • Support early MLOps practices, including deployment patterns, monitoring, and iteration.
  • Partner closely with Value Engineers, product leaders, and clients to align AI solutions with business goals.
  • Communicate complex technical concepts clearly to non-technical audiences.
  • Contribute to internal knowledge sharing, patterns, and best practices for GenAI delivery.
  • Mentor teammates and support PhoenixTeam learning and growth initiatives.
  • Stay current on emerging GenAI techniques, tools, and platforms.
  • Experiment with new approaches and bring practical insights back to the team.
  • Support PhoenixTeam’s evolution in AI delivery methods, tooling, and ways of working.
