Full-Stack AI Engineer

Role Description

At Pavago, one of our clients is hiring a Full-Stack AI Engineer to design, build, and deploy production-ready AI applications that combine modern software engineering with applied artificial intelligence. This is a highly technical, hands-on role where you’ll build intelligent products from end to end—integrating Large Language Models (LLMs), machine learning models, vector databases, cloud infrastructure, and modern web applications into scalable production systems.

You’ll collaborate closely with product managers, data scientists, and engineering teams to develop AI-powered solutions that automate workflows, improve user experiences, and create measurable business impact. If you’re passionate about shipping AI products—not just experimenting with models—this role is built for you.

What Happens After You Apply

Right after you apply, you’ll receive an email invitation from Spark Hire to record your Intro Video. This short, self-recorded video is the final step that completes your application and can be recorded whenever it’s convenient for you. Instead of repeating yourself across multiple screening calls, you’ll introduce yourself once, and your video will be shared with the hiring team. This helps hiring managers evaluate your communication style early, making future interviews more meaningful and reducing unnecessary interview rounds.

Don’t overthink it—you can record your video as many times as you’d like before submitting it. Only your final submission will be reviewed. Please keep an eye on both your inbox and spam folder for your Spark Hire invitation after submitting your application.
