AI Solutions Engineer

AI Solutions Engineer — Greater Huntsville, AL Area

The Talent Mine is hiring an AI Solutions Engineer to join a Fortune 500 industrial leader — North America's largest recycler and a top name in sustainable steel manufacturing, known for exceptional employee investment and long-term stability.

If you're an up-and-coming Solutions Engineer with polish, a consultative mindset, and a drive to push the envelope on innovation, we want to talk to you.

The Role

You'll partner directly with business stakeholders and IT delivery teams to design, build, and deploy advanced technical solutions that solve real business problems. This is a high-visibility, embedded role blending strong engineering chops, systems thinking, and business partnership — with a focus on fast, feasible deployment of modern platforms, analytics, and AI-enabled capabilities (not long-term product ownership).

Expect up to 25% travel to support cross-site benchmarking, knowledge-sharing, and internal development, and the majority of the work will be on site in a manufacturing environment. Be prepared to enjoy wearing a hard hat, steel toed boots and full PPE.

Compensation:

TOTAL COMPENSATION = $157,000-$186,000 broken down as follows:

• Base salary range – $120-$140k

• Annual bonus of 23-33% over the past 5 years!

• 401K and Roth accounts

• Educational assistance (up to $10K per year for you and your family members)

• Outstanding medical, dental, and vision benefits for you and your family!

What You Bring

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or equivalent practical experience
• 3+ years in a technical role (Solutions Engineer, Software Engineer, Systems Analyst, Technical Consultant, or similar)
• Strong Python skills plus at least one additional language (JavaScript/TypeScript, Java, C#, etc.)
• Track record of designing and deploying production applications, integrations, and data/AI solutions end-to-end — including pipelines and operationalization
• Solid grasp of enterprise systems, APIs, and data flows
• Proven success partnering with non-technical stakeholders: running discovery, presenting findings to teammates up to the executive level and driving adoption
• A humble, "get it done" project ownership mindset. You love working in a team first environment and see your ideas to completion.

Nice to Haves

• Experience deploying AI-enabled or advanced analytics solutions
• Familiarity with prompt engineering, model evaluation, or agent-based workflows
• Background in enterprise IT with complex, integrated systems
• Experience partnering with external vendors/solution providers
• Exposure to manufacturing, supply chain, finance, or other enterprise domains

Also Important

Must be legally authorized to work in the US (no visa sponsorship available now or in the future) and able to pass both a criminal background check and drug screen.
