Job Description
Project Overview
HireScale is partnering with an innovative organization looking to accelerate their AI capabilities and embed intelligent systems into core workflows. This engagement is built around rapid 0→1 product development —taking ideas from concept to working prototypes and MVPs with speed, precision, and real-world applicability.
The focus is on shipping, not speculating . You’ll leverage AI-assisted development as a force multiplier—using modern tooling to compress build cycles, iterate quickly, and validate ideas in-market—without compromising on code quality, system design, or long-term scalability.
This is a hands-on role for a consultant who can operate across the full lifecycle:
- Rapidly translating ambiguous ideas into tangible prototypes
- Building MVPs that balance speed with solid engineering fundamentals
- Making smart trade-offs between velocity and technical rigor
- Establishing patterns that can evolve from prototype → production
You’ll work at the intersection of product, engineering, and AI—bringing structure to fast-moving environments while maintaining a high bar for accuracy, performance, and maintainability.
The end goal isn’t just to build something quickly—it’s to build the right thing, prove it works, and set the foundation to scale it.
Scope of Work & Core Capabilities
- Design and ship AI-driven solutions aligned to clear business outcomes
- Translate ambiguous use cases into fast, working prototypes and MVPs
- Build, test, and deploy scalable AI applications end-to-end
- Apply strong engineering fundamentals to balance speed, accuracy, and maintainability
- Optimize models, pipelines, and system performance for production readiness
- Leverage modern AI/ML frameworks and LLMs (OpenAI, Anthropic, LLaMA, Mistral)
- Develop across Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, and SQL-based environments
- Utilize frameworks like LangChain, LlamaIndex, PyTorch, TensorFlow, FastAPI, and Node.js
- Deploy and manage infrastructure across AWS, GCP, or Azure using Docker and modern hosting platforms (Vercel, Netlify)
- Work with vector databases and data systems (PostgreSQL, Pinecone, Weaviate, FAISS)
- Collaborate with stakeholders and communicate complex concepts clearly
- Document solutions and enable clean handoff for internal teams
Engagement Brief
This consulting engagement is focused on delivering real, production-ready AI outcomes within a defined timeframe by balancing speed, scalability, and measurable business impact. It’s structured for experienced builders who can own execution end-to-end and deliver work that lasts beyond the engagement.
- Target Outcomes: Production-ready AI solutions aligned to defined use cases, delivering measurable improvements in efficiency, accuracy, or cost, with scalable architecture and a clean handoff for internal teams
- Duration: 8–12 weeks, with potential extension based on outcomes
- Commitment: Full-service or fractional, depending on scope
- Budget: Flexible based on timeline, scope, and proposal
- Start Date: ASAP
Portfolio Requirements:
- 2–3 relevant AI/ML projects (production or near-production)
- Demonstrated end-to-end ownership (problem → solution → outcome)
- Clear evidence of impact (metrics, business results, or adoption)
- Supporting materials such as GitHub, case studies, or technical write-ups preferred
