Senior AI Engineer building reliable, production AI systems for Newfold Digital’s web technology brands. Developing LLM, RAG, agent, workflow, and automation experiences for millions of customers.
Responsibilities
Build production AI experiences across Network Solutions, including conversational agents, business and website creation, knowledge and FAQ agents, content experiences, domain discovery, and intelligent automation
Translate product requirements into practical AI solutions using LLMs, RAG, tool calling, agents, deterministic workflows, or traditional software where appropriate
Build production AI services using Python, FastAPI, asynchronous workers, PostgreSQL, Redis, queues, model APIs, and external tools
Implement reliable tool-calling agents and multi-step workflows interacting with internal APIs, MCP tools, business systems, and knowledge sources
Build event-driven workflows using RabbitMQ, Kafka, Azure Service Bus, or equivalent platforms, including retries, dead-letter handling, idempotency, and failure recovery
Build and improve RAG systems covering ingestion, chunking, embeddings, hybrid retrieval, reranking, metadata filtering, context construction, and citations
Integrate models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, xAI, and open-weight ecosystems; select models based on quality, latency, reliability, and cost
Build and run AI evaluations using curated datasets, regression tests, retrieval metrics, LLM-as-judge techniques, groundedness checks, and tool-execution evaluation
Use Cursor, Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, or equivalent coding agents for implementation, testing, debugging, refactoring, and documentation
Turn product goals into testable technical tasks and prototype alternatives
Measure quality, latency, reliability, safety, and cost and use those signals to improve solutions
Own implementation across APIs, workflows, data, queues, model integration, evaluations, observability, and production support for assigned features
Work with senior engineers, architects, and product partners to create reliable, secure, observable, and cost-efficient AI systems
Requirements
5 or more years of professional software engineering experience building production backend, distributed, or cloud-based systems
At least 1 year of hands-on experience building Applied AI, LLM, RAG, NLP, or agent-based applications; production experience strongly preferred
Strong Python skills, including FastAPI, asynchronous programming, Pydantic, SQLAlchemy or SQLModel, and production API development
Good backend and distributed systems fundamentals, including REST APIs, concurrency, background processing, caching, reliability, and production debugging
Hands-on experience with RabbitMQ, Kafka, Azure Service Bus, or equivalent queue and messaging architectures is required
Hands-on experience integrating LLM APIs and building structured output, function calling, tool calling, or agent execution workflows
Experience building or contributing to a RAG or knowledge-grounded system, including retrieval, embeddings, indexing, context construction, and evaluation
Working knowledge of PostgreSQL and data modeling, with exposure to Redis, pgvector, vector databases, or hybrid search technologies
Demonstrated use of AI coding agents such as Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, or equivalent tools as a regular part of software engineering work
Understanding of prompting, structured outputs, tool schemas, context management, retries, fallbacks, rate limits, caching, and streaming responses
Ability to use experiments and evaluations to compare approaches using measurable outcomes
Understanding of retrieval quality, grounding, hallucination mitigation, prompt injection risks, tool authorization, and practical agent guardrails
Experience with Docker, CI/CD, automated testing, logging, observability, distributed tracing, OpenTelemetry, Langfuse, or similar tooling
Experience with Semantic Kernel, Microsoft Agent Framework, LangGraph, PydanticAI, or equivalent agent frameworks
Experience building or consuming Model Context Protocol tools and servers, or working with model gateways such as LiteLLM
Experience with Azure AI Search, pgvector, Chroma, Kubernetes, Azure, OCI, or similar production AI platform technologies
Experience contributing to customer-facing AI products, open weight model inference, AI safety controls, automated evaluations, or high-scale backend platforms
