Senior AI Engineer
Metropolis is seeking a Senior AI Engineer to join our Applied AI organization, a team dedicated to transforming the company's operations through AI-first solutions. In this role, you will design and deploy AI-powered tools and automation pipelines that replace manual, repetitive tasks across various departments, including finance, operations, and revenue. This position offers the opportunity to work closely with Process Analysts to understand and enhance business functions, driving significant operational improvements.
Key responsibilities include designing, building, and shipping AI-powered automation tools and internal applications that convert manual business processes into AI-first workflows. You will architect and maintain LLM-based systems, including prompt pipelines, agentic workflows, tool-calling integrations, and retrieval-augmented generation setups. Additionally, you will build and maintain data pipelines connecting source systems to AI workflows, ensuring data quality and reliability. Collaborating with Process Analysts, you will translate business requirements into engineering specifications and iterate based on user feedback. Maintaining production reliability for the systems you build, including monitoring, alerting, and iterating on AI outputs to maintain quality over time, is also a critical aspect of this role.
The ideal candidate will have over six years of software engineering experience, with at least two years focused on designing, building, and deploying LLM-based or AI-powered applications in production. Strong Python skills are essential, along with practical experience with LLM APIs, prompt engineering, and agentic patterns. Familiarity with data engineering fundamentals, including SQL and working with cloud data warehouses, is required. Experience with workflow orchestration tools and cloud infrastructure is also important. A strong instinct for product quality and the ability to work autonomously in a fast-paced environment are key attributes for success in this role.
The anticipated base salary for this position ranges from $170,000 to $200,000 annually. The actual base salary offered will be determined based on factors such as the applicant's qualifications, years of relevant experience, distinctive skills, level of education, certifications, and the location of residence and/or place of employment.
