Agency Growth Team Hiring! Part Time Generative AI Engineer - LLM Engineer - AI Application Developer in - Ricebowl

Designs, builds, and maintains software applications that use generative AI, large language models (LLMs), and related machine learning technologies. Works with product managers, designers, engineers, and subject matter experts to understand user needs, define suitable AI use cases, and turn requirements into reliable application features. Solutions may include chat assistants, document search and summarization, content generation, workflow automation, or AI-powered integrations.

Develops application components that connect models to business data, tools, and existing systems. This may involve prompt design, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), embeddings, vector databases, model APIs, and agent or workflow orchestration. Selects and integrates appropriate models based on requirements for quality, latency, cost, privacy, and deployment constraints. Builds supporting software such as data-processing pipelines, APIs, user interfaces, and monitoring systems.

Evaluates model and application performance using representative test cases and user feedback. Investigates issues such as inaccurate or unsupported responses, inconsistent behavior, latency, and unexpected outputs, then improves prompts, retrieval, model configuration, or application logic. Helps establish safeguards for sensitive data, harmful outputs, access control, and appropriate use. Documents system behavior and limitations, monitors applications after release, and works with engineering and operations teams to maintain performance and reliability.
