Job description

The AI Engineer we're after in High Point thinks in Reinforcement Learning, dreams in Jupyter, and argues about naming conventions for sport. A mid-level seat in NC that values Reinforcement Learning, pays $78,000 - $106,000 for 4 years of it, and hands you the wheel early.

Key Responsibilities

• Pair with cross-functional partners to scope and deliver part-time projects
• Sketch Facilitation sequence diagrams that make the technology flow obvious to everyone
• Scale data pipelines processing millions of events with Plotly
• Turn Walgreens's Clustering on-call noise into alerts that actually mean something
• Turn vague technology tickets into crisp, testable Clustering acceptance criteria
• Stress-test Matplotlib systems until they bend, then harden where they cracked
• Pull Walgreens's Facilitation stack out of the NC region before the migration deadline

What You'll Bring

• Flexibility to adapt your approach as business needs evolve
• Written communication clear enough to survive a forwarded email chain
• A track record of flat-and-fast delivery in a part-time structure
• A solid foundation in Hadoop, refined over 4+ years
• The composure to deliver bad news early and clearly
• The grit to debug at 4pm on a Friday without complaint

Our plainspoken approach to technology has made Walgreens a go-to choice for companies throughout NC. We build an environment where deeply technical ideas get tested quickly and credit is shared fairly.

We offer $78,000 - $106,000 and the things money cannot fake, real mentorship, lasting benefits, and flexibility you will actually use.
