Founding AI Engineer
Fort Worth, TX (4 Days Onsite – Non-Negotiable)
Compensation: Up to $300,000 Base + Meaningful Equity
About the Opportunity
We are partnering with a well-capitalized, publicly traded company undergoing a significant AI-driven transformation. The organization operates in a highly data-rich environment and is making a substantial long-term investment in artificial intelligence, software development, automation, and intelligent decision systems.
This is not a research role.
This is an opportunity for a highly capable AI Engineer to build production-grade AI products that solve real business problems, influence strategic decisions, and ultimately become core to the company’s competitive advantage. The successful candidate will work directly with executive leadership and have a meaningful role in shaping the company’s AI roadmap from the ground up.
Why This Role Stands Out
Most AI jobs today focus on prototypes, experimentation, and proof-of-concepts.
This role is different.
You’ll be responsible for building AI systems that are actively used, trusted, and integrated into day-to-day operations. You’ll have the autonomy to identify opportunities, architect solutions, deploy production applications, and see the direct impact of your work across the business.
For engineers who enjoy operating at the intersection of:
- AI Agents
- LLM Infrastructure
- Full-Stack Product Development
- Data Systems
- Model Fine-Tuning
- Automation & Workflow Design
this is a rare opportunity to build something meaningful from an early stage.
What You’ll Be Building
AI Products & Agentic Systems
- Design and deploy AI agents that automate complex workflows.
- Build production-ready LLM applications for internal and external users.
- Develop agent orchestration frameworks and AI-powered decision-support systems.
- Create scalable architectures that move beyond demos into real-world business applications.
Generative AI Infrastructure
- Implement RAG pipelines and vector database architectures.
- Develop evaluation frameworks to measure model performance and reliability.
- Fine-tune and customize models using LoRA and modern adaptation techniques.
- Work with open-source and commercial LLM ecosystems.
Full-Stack Product Development
- Develop backend services and APIs in Python.
- Build user-facing applications using modern frontend frameworks such as React and TypeScript.
- Create intuitive interfaces that make AI useful for technical and non-technical users alike.
Data & Platform Engineering
- Design scalable data architectures and database-backed applications.
- Connect AI systems with operational and business data sources.
- Ensure applications are observable, maintainable, secure, and performant in production environments.
What We’re Looking For
We are interested in builders.
The ideal candidate has experience taking an idea from concept to deployment and can comfortably operate across multiple layers of the stack.
Core Requirements
- Strong professional software engineering experience in Python.
- Experience building production-grade AI applications.
- Hands-on experience with:
- AI Agents
- RAG architectures
- Vector databases
- LangChain, LangGraph, or similar frameworks
- LoRA fine-tuning workflows
- LLM evaluation methodologies
- Experience developing APIs, backend services, and scalable systems.
- Strong understanding of application security and software architecture.
- Demonstrated ability to build software that real users depend on.
Bonus Points
- React and TypeScript expertise.
- Experience serving or self-hosting open-source models.
- Experience with GGUF, Safetensors, or model optimization workflows.
- Background in distributed systems, platform engineering, or MLOps.
- Startup mentality with a bias toward execution and ownership.
Who Thrives Here
This environment is best suited for engineers who:
- Move quickly without sacrificing quality.
- Prefer ownership over bureaucracy.
- Want direct access to business leaders and decision-makers.
- Enjoy turning ambiguity into working products.
- Are excited by the opportunity to build AI systems that become mission-critical to an organization.
You’ll be joining a team that views AI as a strategic advantage-not a side project.
Location Requirement
This role is based in Fort Worth, Texas and requires onsite presence four days per week.
This requirement is non-negotiable. The company believes the strongest outcomes come from close collaboration between engineering, operations, and leadership teams, and has intentionally built an onsite-first culture around innovation and execution.
Compensation
- Base salary up to $300,000
- Meaningful equity participation
- Long-term wealth creation opportunity
- Executive visibility and influence
- Opportunity to help define the future direction of AI within the organization
