Senior Applied AI Engineer
Compensation: $170k - $250k base + equity
Location: New York City (Chelsea) — fully on-site five days/ week
We’re partnering with a fast-growing NYC AI startup that’s building agentic systems for complex, high-stakes insurance investigations. The team already has strong backend in place and is now building its next generation of AI agents and LLM workflows.
This is a hands-on IC role for an engineer with a backend background who has shipped production AI systems and wants real ownership from idea through deployment.
What You’ll Do
- Build and ship production AI agents and multi-step LLM workflows.
- Develop agents that enrich claim information using permissible public sources.
- Build internal workflows to help operations review ambiguous records.
- Integrate agents with existing backend, data, and ML systems.
- Monitor production performance, investigate failures, and improve reliability.
- Work closely with the CTO, ML, backend, and operations teams.
What You’ll Bring
- Strong Python and production backend engineering experience.
- Experience shipping LLM agents and AI systems to production.
- Hands-on with evaluations, graders, and testing frameworks.
- Familiarity with agent tooling such as OpenHands, Agent2Agent, and MCP.
- Able to move quickly from prototype to robust production systems.
- Clear track record of owning and shipping meaningful technical work.
Why Join?
Join a small, technical team with real customer traction and established infrastructure, where you’ll help build the applied AI layer from the ground up and see your work used in real operational workflows.
