We are seeking a Generative AI Engineer to design, build, and deploy production-grade LLM-powered systems across Taxwell. This role focuses on implementing scalable, reliable generative AI capabilities embedded in internal tools and customer-facing products. You will work hands-on with retrieval systems, agent workflows, and model integrations to deliver measurable business impact.
You will collaborate closely with platform, product, data, and security teams to translate AI use cases into secure, production-ready systems.
Responsibilities:
Design and implement LLM-powered applications supporting internal workflows and customer-facing features.
Build and optimize retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipelines grounded in proprietary documentation and structured data.
Develop agent-based and workflow-driven systems using frameworks such as LangChain, LangGraph, ADK, or similar.
Integrate commercial and open-weight LLMs into APIs and production services.
Implement prompt strategies, tool-calling workflows, and structured output generation.
Contribute to shared AI infrastructure including embeddings, vector search, evaluation tooling, caching, and monitoring.
Improve system performance through latency optimization, cost management, and retrieval tuning.
Partner with DevOps and platform teams to deploy scalable services in AWS.
Measure system performance using telemetry, experimentation, and user feedback.
Qualifications:
5–8+ years of software engineering experience.
2+ years building and deploying LLM-powered or RAG-based systems in production.
Hands-on experience with embeddings, vector databases (e.g., Pinecone, Chroma, FAISS), and retrieval pipelines.
Experience building agent workflows and integrating LLM APIs.
Proficiency in Python or TypeScript.
Experience deploying systems in AWS environments.
Strong debugging and systems thinking skills.
Preferred:
Experience implementing evaluation frameworks (e.g., LangSmith).
Experience optimizing latency and token cost.
Exposure to regulated industries (fintech, tax, healthcare).
Experience fine-tuning or adapting open-weight LLMs.
