Senior AI Experience Engineer
TalentReach is representing a leading integration-platform-as-a-service (iPaaS) company, purpose-built for banks, credit unions, and core systems. Their platform provides financial institutions with the integration toolbox and development support they need to connect with fintechs, manage payments, launch projects faster, and eliminate vendor dependencies. We're committed to innovation and efficiency — and They're looking for a Senior AI Engineer with a passion for leveraging AI to transform how software is built.
About the Role: They're seeking a creative and technically skilled Senior AI Experience Engineer to build intelligent, user-centric, AI-powered applications. This role focuses on designing, integrating, and optimizing AI experiences using large language models (LLMs), agents, and third-party APIs. You won't be training models or tuning hyperparameters—you'll be shaping how users interact with AI in production. If you're passionate about crafting smart assistants, dynamic workflows, and delightful AI features, this is the role for you.
Key Responsibilities:
- Design and build AI-powered product features using tools like OpenAI, Claude, Vertex AI, and custom APIs
- Prototype intelligent user experiences such as chat interfaces, summarization tools, recommendation engines, and workflow automation
- Integrate third-party AI models and services into web and mobile apps, ensuring security, latency, and scalability
- Collaborate with product, design, and UX teams to translate AI capabilities into intuitive, user-friendly experiences
- Fine-tune prompts, orchestration logic, and fallback behaviors for consistent, high-quality output
- Partner with data engineers and backend developers to pipe relevant data into AI-driven features
- Monitor, test, and refine real-world performance using human-in-the-loop feedback and analytics
Required Qualifications
- 5+ years of software engineering experience, ideally with backend or full-stack focus
- Strong programming skills in Python, including experience building and maintaining production services
- Proven experience building with AI agents and frameworks (e.g., LangChain, Semantic Kernel, or custom agents)
- Proficiency in building APIs and front-end interfaces using modern frameworks like JavaScript/TypeScript and React
- Familiarity with foundation model APIs (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic, Cohere, Google)
- Experience with prompt engineering, tool orchestration, and LLM-based user interactions
- Understanding of REST APIs, embeddings, vector stores, and evaluation workflows for AI performance
- Excellent communication and collaboration skills across engineering and product teams
- Strong sense of ownership and persistence — comfortable navigating ambiguity and solving complex problems
Preferred Qualifications:
- Experience with retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), memory components, model routing, or multi-agent systems
- Familiarity with AI agent monitoring tools such as Humanloop, PromptLayer, or LangSmith
- Experience working with Model Context Protocol (MCP)
- Understanding of cloud-based infrastructure (AWS, Azure, or GCP) and scalable app deployment
- Knowledge of ethical AI practices and secure, responsible AI deployment patterns
