Senior Applied AI Engineer

$180k - $215k

TEEMA

Job Title: Applied AI Engineer Job ID: 88664 Location: San Francisco, CA What you will be doing: Build autonomous agent systems
  • Architect agents that read enterprise documentation, plan implementations, call APIs, and promote tested changes.
  • Design hierarchical planners and multi-agent coordination with shared scratchpads and guardrails.
  • Operationalize LLM + RL research into production systems that deliver measurable impact.
Engineer learning & reliability:
  • Design RL / preference optimization loops that optimize business outcomes, not token loss.
  • Build evaluation suites simulating real customer change requests, compliance checks, and regression risks.
  • Implement sandboxing, deterministic replays, and rollback strategies for safety and auditability.
Bridge research and production:
  • Create data pipelines, synthetic task generation, and reward modeling for agent fine-tuning.
  • Integrate structured decoding, retrieval, and tool use orchestration into a cohesive reasoning stack.
  • Collaborate with customers to turn messy tickets into automated, validated, documented changes.
Shape technical culture
  • Define standards for agent evaluation, experiment hygiene, dataset versioning, and reproducibility.
  • Lead design reviews, share failures openly, and help build the foundation for autonomous enterprise AI.
