Senior AI Engineer – MarTech / Marketing Intelligence Hybrid | San Jose, CA or Frisco, TX (must be locally based | (no relocation)

The Role
Senior AI Engineering role architecting the intelligence layer behind a global consumer software company's marketing ecosystem. You'll move the org from manual campaign management to autonomous campaign orchestration — designing agentic workflows, generative creative pipelines, and real-time personalization systems that operate with minimal human intervention.

This is a hands-on, build-it role at the intersection of MarTech and applied AI.

Responsibilities

  • Architect and deploy AI agents for cross-channel campaign orchestration, real-time lead qualification, and end-to-end workflow automation
  • Build scalable generative asset pipelines for automated ad creative (text, image, video) using LLMs and multimodal models, with brand-safe guardrails
  • Implement RAG systems for context-aware, personalized content across web, email, and SMS
  • Develop and productionalize ML models for LTV prediction, churn propensity, and Next Best Action engines
  • Own the full MLOps lifecycle — feature engineering, deployment, monitoring for data drift
  • Ensure compliance with global privacy standards (GDPR, CCPA) and implement privacy-first AI techniques (differential privacy, synthetic data)
  • Establish Responsible AI governance frameworks across the marketing function

Requirements
  • Strong SQL and cloud data warehouse experience; Databricks for feature engineering a strong plus
  • MarTech integration experience — CDPs (HighTouch), ESPs (Braze, Iterable), Ad Platforms (Meta Conversions API, Google Enhanced Conversions), Analytics (Adobe CJA)
  • Deployment fluency with Docker, Kubernetes, and cloud AI services (SageMaker, Vertex AI, or Azure AI Studio)
  • Previous experience in a high-growth B2C marketing environment
  • Ability to translate vague marketing goals into concrete technical requirements

Nice to Have
  • Experience developing applications or integrations across Windows, macOS, iOS, or Android ecosystems
  • Customer-facing web experience (JavaScript, Adobe Experience Manager)
  • Expert Python; deep experience with PyTorch or TensorFlow
  • Hands-on with LLM orchestration frameworks (LangChain, LlamaIndex, LangGraph)
  • Production experience with RAG systems and vector databases (Pinecone, Milvus, Weaviate)
  • Fine-tuning experience (LoRA, QLoRA) with frontier LLMs
  • Strong grounding in Bayesian A/B testing and causal inference



The Stack
  • Data: Databricks, HighTouch
  • AI/ML: Claude, PyTorch, Hugging Face, OpenAI API, LangGraph
  • Orchestration: Airflow, Prefect, GitHub Actions
  • Marketing Execution: Braze
  • Monitoring: Weights & Biases, Arize, Grafana
  • Analytics: Adobe CJA

Compensation
$180,000 – $230,000 USD base + bonus program

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
