An embedded AI teammate serves as every operator's always-on co-pilot: detecting anomalies, correlating events, and surfacing recommendations 24/7.\nWe are seeking an AI/ML Engineer who is excited to build intelligent systems at the intersection of applied AI and critical infrastructure. You will work across the full AI development lifecycle - from data pipelines and model integration to agentic orchestration, evaluation, and production support - collaborating closely with a small, fast-moving engineering team.\nThis is not a research-only role, but research thinking matters here. You will be expected to read papers, stay ahead of the field, and bring ideas to the table - then build them into production systems.\nWho We Are Looking For\nWe care more about how you think than how many years are on your resume. This role is open to both junior and senior candidates. What matters is:\nYou are genuinely excited about AI and infrastructure - not just one of them\nYou learn fast, go deep, and can hold your own in a technical debate\nYou have the engineering fundamentals to ship reliable systems\nYou are proactive, curious, and comfortable with a steep learning curve\nYou want to work on something technically hard that actually matters in the physical world\nIf you are early in your career but have strong fundamentals, a track record of self-directed learning, and a portfolio that shows you build things - we want to hear from you.\nWhat You Will Work On\nMulti-agent orchestration and LLM-driven triage workflows\nTime-series modeling for anomaly detection, failure prediction, and health forecasting on multivariate telemetry\nRetrieval-augmented knowledge systems for operations teams\nData and ML pipelines - ingestion, ETL, and dataset construction\nFine-tuning and post-training of language models for operational use cases\nAI observability, evaluation frameworks, and production performance benchmarking\nResponsibilities\nDesign, develop, and maintain AI-powered applications and automation workflows\nIntegrate and optimize LLM APIs for production use cases\nBuild and refine retrieval and knowledge-augmentation pipelines\nDevelop evaluation frameworks to benchmark AI system performance\nImplement monitoring, tracing, and debugging capabilities for AI systems\nRead and synthesize relevant research; bring ideas forward and debate them with the team\nContribute to AI architecture decisions and production hardening\nStay current with the rapidly evolving AI/ML landscape \nRequirements\nRequired\nDegree in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Mathematics, or a related field - or equivalent demonstrated experience\nStrong proficiency in Python\nSolid software engineering fundamentals: testing, version control, CI/CD\nExperience working with LLM APIs in applied contexts\nFamiliarity with agentic system concepts - tool/function-calling, agent frameworks\nDaily use of AI-assisted coding tools (Cursor, Copilot, Claude Code, etc.)\nAbility to read ML research papers and translate ideas into practical experiments\nStrong analytical thinking and clear communication - you can argue a position and update it when wrong\nPreferred\nProfessional AI/ML engineering experience (any level)\nExperience building agentic systems using frameworks such as LangGraph or LangChain; MCP a plus\nTime-series modeling - forecasting and anomaly/failure prediction on multivariate data\nExperience fine-tuning or post-training language models\nPyTorch and/or model serving frameworks (e.g., vLLM)\nExperience building data and ML pipelines - ingestion, ETL, dataset construction\nFamiliarity with cloud ML platforms, particularly GCP (Vertex AI)\nLLM evaluation and benchmarking: harness design and eval loop development\nDomain experience with data center or industrial telemetry, BMS/OT protocols (Niagara, BACnet/Modbus)\nBackground in DevOps, distributed systems, or observability tooling\nBenefits\nHealth Care Plan (Medical, Dental & Vision)\nPaid Time Off (Vacation, Sick & Public Holidays)\nFree Food & Snacks\nStock Option Plan\n401(k)","description_format":"text","description_chars":4425,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Data Centers & Colocation","Energy Management","Observability & APM"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-06T05:37:21Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"US","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"H-1B filings in 12 months: 1","filings_12m":1,"filings_prev_12m":0,"green_card_filings_12m":0,"median_offered_wage_usd":167500,"route":null,"cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-03T21:08:04+00:00","sources":["US Department of Labor: LCA disclosure data (H-1B, H-1B1, E-3)"],"filings_for_role_12m":1}],"liveness":{"score":86,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.86,"p_room":1,"age_days":1,"expected_fill_days":21,"reasons":["conf:1","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-10-07T05:47:15Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/teserac-ai-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/teserac-ai-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-08T00:49:32Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":1343,"day_limit":5000,"remaining_today":3657,"minute_limit":60,"resets_at":"2026-10-09T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":688810},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=688810"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fteserac-ai-engineer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fteserac-ai-engineer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fteserac-ai-engineer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/teserac-ai-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fteserac-ai-engineer"}]}
