Applied AI Engineer

About this role

We are looking for an Applied AI Engineer to help us make Foley truly AI-native — not by layering tools on top, but by rethinking how work gets done across the company.


You’ll operate as a forward-deployed builder, embedded with business teams to identify high-leverage problems and ship real solutions. This is a hands-on role where you’ll design, build, and deploy AI-powered systems that improve how we operate, make decisions, and deliver value.


This is not a research role. You build, you ship, and you measure impact.


What You’ll Do


Build & Ship Solutions

• Design and build AI-powered systems end-to-end, including agentic workflows, internal tools, automation pipelines, and business applications
• Own your work from concept through production, including iteration and improvement
• Use AI-assisted development and modern tooling to move quickly without sacrificing quality

Embed with the Business

• Work directly with operations, compliance, sales, and product teams to understand real workflows and pain points
• Translate ambiguous, messy processes into clear, scalable systems
• Operate as part of cross-functional “tiger teams” focused on high-impact problems

Drive Outcomes, Not Just Output

• Define success metrics and measure whether your solutions improve speed, quality, or decision-making
• Close the loop by evaluating what worked, what didn’t, and what to improve

Build for Scale & Reuse

• Design composable solutions that integrate into the broader platform
• Think in reusable capabilities, not one-off scripts

Operate with Judgment & Guardrails

• Build with awareness of regulatory constraints (DOT, FMCSA, PII)
• Apply strong judgment when using AI to ensure quality, trust, and compliance

Contribute to the Builder Community

• Share patterns, tools, and learnings with other engineers and teams
• Review work and help raise the bar for how we build
