Manufacturing AI Engineer: Build Production AI Solutions

CelLink Corporation; Georgetown (TX); On-site; USD 120,000 - 180,000; Full time

Job summary

CelLink Corporation is seeking an AI Engineer to turn machine and process data into AI-powered manufacturing solutions. You will build models for predictive maintenance, defect detection, and process optimization, deploying production-ready pipelines across MES/ERP, SPC, SCADA, and machine vision systems.

You will own the full lifecycle from data to deployment, collaborate with cross-functional teams, and apply generative AI and ML to improve yield, uptime, and quality in a 24/7 manufacturing

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, AI/ML, Data Science, Software Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related technical field.
• 3+ years of professional experience in AI/ML, machine learning, data science, software engineering, or a related technical discipline.
• Experience developing and deploying AI/ML solutions into production, not just academic or experimental models.
• Strong Python programming skills.
• Experience with ML frameworks such as PyTorch, TensorFlow, Scikit-learn, or similar.
• Working knowledge of SQL, databases, APIs, version control, testing, and software deployment.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to work with incomplete, noisy, or rapidly changing data.
• Ability to take an ambiguous operational problem, break it down, and turn it into a practical technical solution.
• Strong communication skills and the ability to explain complex AI concepts to both technical and non-technical teams.

Responsibilities

• Build and deploy AI/ML solutions for manufacturing, quality, equipment reliability, process optimization, anomaly detection, predictive maintenance, defect detection, and engineering productivity.
• Turn factory data into useful products. Build production-ready models, applications, APIs, and data pipelines using information from manufacturing equipment, MES/ERP, SPC, SCADA, machine vision, databases, and engineering systems.
• Solve real manufacturing problems. Partner with Manufacturing, Equipment, Process, Quality, Automation & Controls, Software, and other teams to identify high-value opportunities and turn operational challenges into scalable AI solutions.
• Own the full AI lifecycle from data and experimentation through model training, evaluation, deployment, monitoring, and continuous improvement.
• Explore what's next. Evaluate and apply machine learning, deep learning, computer vision, generative AI, LLMs, RAG, and AI-enabled workflows where they can create real value.
• Build responsibly. Design solutions with appropriate controls around accuracy, security, traceability, reliability, and responsible AI use.
• Work where the problems happen. Collaborate directly with the teams running our manufacturing operation and understand how your solutions perform in the real world.
• Help establish strong engineering practices around code quality, testing, version control, deployment, documentation, and scalable AI development.
