Senior Generative AI Engineer

About this role

Our client is seeking a Senior Generative AI Engineer to drive internal initiatives and provide AI engineering support for a major federal agency. The role centers on developing cloud-native generative AI solutions and intelligent data pipelines on AWS, spanning intelligent document processing, computer vision, and related AI / ML domains.

The ideal candidate is energized and motivated with an extreme commitment to delivery and transformational change through the use of AI. They will think about generative AI in two dimensions: as a tool that makes them and their team dramatically faster, and as a core component of the intelligent systems they build. They understand that deploying an LLM inside a production workflow is a fundamentally different engineering challenge than using one to write a function, and they have done both. They take initiative without being asked and want ownership of the firm's trajectory, not just their deliverables.

Our client is a Benefit corporation - legally committed to creating measurable social value alongside business performance. They offer mission-driven, technically challenging work on complex federal initiatives, paired with direct client access, real ownership of your work product, and a culture that rewards initiative.

Responsibilities

*Client Delivery:*

• Design and deploy production-grade Agentic AI systems where LLMs serve as operational components to reason, explain, and make decisions within live workflows
• Architect intelligent pipelines combining classical tools (OCR, fuzzy matching, structured query) with LLM-based validation, confidence scoring, fallback logic, and automated logging for auditability and continuous improvement
• Translate ambiguous mission requirements into well-scoped AI system designs; apply prompt and context engineering, RAG, semantic search, and fine-tuning as appropriate; leverage AWS services including Bedrock, Textract, Lambda, and Step Functions
• Use generative AI tooling to accelerate ...
