Role Summary:
We are seeking a Generative AI Engineer to build, optimize, and scale production-ready AI applications. You will design complex multi-agent systems, implement advanced RAG pipelines, and manage the deployment of both frontier and local LLMs. The ideal candidate blends deep machine learning expertise with modern software engineering practices.


Technical Stack:

LLMs: Gemini, OpenAI, Claude, Llama, and Local Model deployment.

Frameworks: LangChain, LlamaIndex, and Hugging Face.

Orchestration: LangGraph and Multi-Agent Systems (MAS).

Development: Python, FastAPI, and Asynchronous Programming.

RAG & Data: PostgreSQL, Vector Databases, and Advanced Retrieval strategies.

ML/DL: PyTorch, TensorFlow, and Model Fine-tuning.

Deployment: Docker, Production API management, and LLM monitoring.

Tools: Prompt Engineering, Workflow Design, and GenAI Optimization.


Key Responsibilities:

Develop and orchestrate sophisticated AI workflows using LangGraph and multi-agent architectures.

Build and maintain Advanced RAG systems utilizing LlamaIndex and vector databases for high-accuracy retrieval.

Integrate and swap diverse LLMs (commercial and open-source) based on performance and cost requirements.

Design and deploy high-performance, scalable backend services using FastAPI and Async Python.

Fine-tune large language models (LLMs) using PyTorch/TensorFlow to improve domain-specific performance.

Optimize GenAI workflows for latency, cost, and reliability using advanced prompt engineering and monitoring tools.

Containerize and deploy AI services via Docker to production environments.


Required Qualifications:

Hands-on experience building and deploying GenAI applications in a production setting.

Strong proficiency in Python and the modern AI library ecosystem (LangChain, LlamaIndex, etc.).

Experience with vector search, embedding models, and advanced data retrieval patterns.

Knowledge of model fine-tuning techniques and local LLM quantization/hosting.

Familiarity with production-grade monitoring, API security, and CI/CD for ML.


Compensation, Benefits and Duration

Minimum Compensation: USD 40,000
Maximum Compensation: USD 141,000
Compensation is based on actual experience and qualifications of the candidate. The above is a reasonable and a good faith estimate for the role.

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
