Job description

Itransition has a new AI team that builds AI solutions for clients in any industry. Its projects range from adding AI to a system the client already runs to building a new product, and its work spans agents, assistants, and chat interfaces, as well as backend routing and optimisation, computer vision, and language model fine-tuning. As a Senior AI/ML Engineer, you will be one of the first engineers on the team. You will take a project from the client's request to a production feature and lead 2–3 engineers on the project. In this role, the hard part is usually the data and the client's process, not the model. A project phase may end with evidence that the data cannot support the feature. That is a valid result when it comes early and explains why. What is specific to this team: - A new team: the first projects set how it works - Direct contact with the client's managers and data - A justified \"this will not work\" counts as a result, not a failure If you are close but not across all of it, apply anyway and say where you are unsure.office remote GeorgiaKazakhstanUzbekistanRequirementsTypically 5+ years in software or ML engineering; strong PythonKnowing when a task needs AI and when plain code, a rule or a database query does it betterLLM features and agents you took to production and kept running: function calling, RAG, agent workflowsAgent frameworks: LangGraph, LlamaIndex or comparableDeployment to the cloud (Azure, AWS) and on premises, including local modelsEvaluation of LLM output: test sets agreed with the business, pass thresholds, error analysisClassical ML on tabular data: churn, segmentation, forecastingPlanning the AI part of a project of 1 person-year or more, and leading 2–3 engineers on itPersonal data and AI: GDPR, what may go to an external LLM provider and what may notWorking English: you present results to the client's managers and defend a technical decisionNot expected: depth in every kind of AI work.
