Senior level
Software
Propelling the restoration industry forwards in a dynamic tech-driven environment focused on excellence and innovation
The Role
Design train and implement domain-specific LLMs for automation in restoration companies. Collaborate with teams coordinate AI engineering and ensure model reliability.
Summary Generated by Built In

We’re building deeply integrated LLMs into a real product used daily by restoration companies running thousands of jobs. This is not a “prompt engineer” role. You’ll design train and ship domain-specific language models that automate real workflows and move real revenue.

You will:

  • Own end‑to‑end LLM systems: architecture training evals and iteration
  • Fine‑tune and extend existing models (LoRA instruction tuning RLHF)
  • Build and maintain data pipelines from product databases documents APIs and logs
  • Ship reliable monitored production models with clear guardrails
  • Collaborate closely with product and engineering to turn messy real‑world problems into working systems
  • Build and coordinate the AI engineering team
  • Use Claude Code as a core tool for development refactors tests and experiments

This is for you if:

  • “How does this actually work under the hood?” is your default question
  • You’re fine sitting with a hard problem for days and reading papers on weekends to figure it out
  • If there’s something interesting to learn or solve it doesn’t matter if it’s Saturday or 1 a.m. you’re in
  • You build side projects nobody asked for and write cleaner code than anyone requires
  • You’re quietly competitive self‑taught in at least one major skill and think in systems
  • You’re slightly allergic to meetings without a clear purpose or owner

Requirements
  • 5+ years of real world experience in ML / AI engineering
  • Proven experience training or substantially contributing to training LLMs (not just calling APIs)
  • Deep understanding of transformers attention and training dynamics
  • Strong Python plus PyTorch or JAX
  • Experience with large‑scale data pipelines and experiment tracking
  • Hands‑on fine‑tuning (LoRA instruction / SFT RLHF or similar)
  • Comfortable using Claude Code as part of your daily workflow
  • Able to explain complex systems simply to non‑technical stakeholders and go deep with experts
  • Track record of owning projects end‑to‑end and mentoring other engineers

Nice to have:

  • Distributed training (FSDP DeepSpeed Megatron etc.)
  • Inference optimization (quantization speculative decoding vLLM Triton)
  • Experience shipping LLM features in production SaaS
  • Open‑source contributions or published work or patents in ML / NLP
  • Microsoft Foundry experience

Benefits
  • Competitive salary (based on experience and location)
  • Generous PTO
  • Medical dental and vision coverage
  • 401(k) plan
  • High ownership and autonomy over your work
  • Direct collaboration with a small team of smart kind motivated engineers
  • An environment that values deep work clear thinking and real impact
  • Regular team events and off‑sites
  • Equipment and learning budget to help you do your best work and keep up with the frontier
