Lead design and delivery of production LLM-based and agentic AI solutions using Python, cloud and RAG systems. Own technical direction, presales, architecture, mentoring, and client relationships across discovery to deployment.
What You’ll Do:
- Write clean, production-grade Python across AI integrations, backend services, and RESTful APIs
- Implement and optimize RAG systems for production use cases
- Design and build LLM-based and agentic AI solutions that address real client business challenges
- Own the technical direction of client engagements from discovery through delivery
- Support presales: discovery calls, technical proposals, scoping, and client-facing demos
- Lead architecture reviews, produce technical design documents, and contribute to standards across the Python practice
- Mentor engineers, lead code reviews, and share knowledge across the team
- Build and maintain strong relationships with key client stakeholders as a trusted technical advisor
What You’ll Bring:
- Full-stack mindset, comfortable across AI, backend development, and cloud infrastructure
- Already using AI tools in your daily workflow (Claude Code, Copilot, or similar)
- Proactive and self-directed; you own outcomes end-to-end and spot problems before they're handed to you
- B2+ English, comfortable collaborating across distributed, multicultural teams
- Owns the client technical relationship; leading discovery, decomposing ambiguous requirements into technical components, presenting architecture, and pushing back on scope when it doesn't match timeline or budget
- Produces scoped, phased delivery plans with clear deliverables, dependencies, and risks
- Experience with cost estimation and cloud architecture cost optimization
- 7+ years building and running production systems not only demos and POCs
- Strong understanding of AI/ML concepts and experience integrating AI/ML components into solutions
- Strong Python proficiency: OOP, design patterns, clean architecture, and performance optimization
- Experience building RESTful APIs with FastAPI, Django REST, or Flask
- Experience making and defending architectural trade-off decisions: microservices vs monolith, sync vs event-driven, SQL vs NoSQL
- Strong testing practices: pytest, mocking, and integration tests for AI systems
- Experience with Docker and Kubernetes
- Hands-on experience building production LLM-based applications and agentic workflows
- Experience with LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, or AWS Bedrock)
- Experience building and optimizing RAG systems
- Understanding of LLM evaluation techniques and quality assurance approaches
- Experience deploying and maintaining AI/ML models in production environments
- Hands-on experience with AWS (SageMaker, Bedrock, Lambda, ECS, S3, SQS, ECR, or similar); GCP considered
- Experience with React/Vue
- AWS and Claude Code Certifications
- Experience with Streamlit or Gradio for AI prototyping
- Modern Python tooling (ruff, uv, pyproject.toml, pyright)
- CI/CD pipeline experience (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI)
- Experience in an additional language (Go, Node.js, or Rust)
- Front-end experience

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
