Role brief

remoteroles summary, based on the employer's posting.

What you'll do

  • Build and release LLM applications and agent workflows, then connect them to APIs, databases, search and other tools
  • Design agent systems for planning, memory, tool use and multi-step tasks, with safeguards that make actions observable and reliable
  • Improve model behavior through prompts, context design, structured responses and tool calling
  • Create evaluation datasets and frameworks to track quality, reliability and regressions
  • Trace problems from model responses through backend services and user experience, then tune systems for quality, speed and cost

What you bring

  • You have experience with AI and have built applications that use it
  • You have hands-on experience with LLMs, generative AI or agent-based systems
  • You have designed prompts, AI workflows, evaluations or model behavior
  • You can write clean code ready for production and work across model, system and product layers

Who this fits

This remote role suits a mid-level engineer who can turn unclear product needs into working AI features and iterate on them in production. You’ll work across product and engineering teams.

From the employer

LLM Application Engineer, Artificial Intelligence (AI) Required, Work From Home

As an LLM Application Engineer, you will build the intelligence layer that powers the AI experiences. You will work at the intersection of Large Language Models (LLMs), software engineering, and product designing agent workflows, improving model behavior, and turning Artificial Intelligence (AI) capabilities into reliable user experiences. You will own problems end-to-end, from understanding user needs, designing Agentic workflows, integrating models and tools, building evaluation systems and continuously improving AI behavior in production. This position is 100% Remote.

LLM Application Engineer Responsibilities:

- Build and ship LLM-powered applications and AI agent workflows.

- Design systems for reasoning, planning, memory, tool use and multi-step execution.

- Build reliable orchestration pipelines that turn probabilistic model outputs into predictable, observable, and safe actions.

- Integrate Large Language Models (LLMs) with APIs, databases, search, internal services, and external tools.

- Develop prompting, context engineering, structured outputs, tool-calling, and other techniques to improve model behavior.

- Build evaluation frameworks and datasets to measure AI quality, reliability, and regressions.

- Debug AI systems across the entire stack from model behavior and prompts to orchestration, backend services, and product UX.

- Optimize AI systems for quality, latency, and cost.

- Work closely with product and engineering teams to turn ambiguous product problems into working AI solutions.

- Establish production practices for observability, tracing, experimentation, evaluation, and continuous improvement.

LLM Application Engineer Outcomes:

- Artificial Intelligence (AI) features reach production quickly and deliver measurable user impact.

- LLM-powered workflows are reliable, scalable, observable, and maintainable.

- Artificial Intelligence (AI) quality improves through systematic evaluation, experimentation, and iteration.

- Artificial Intelligence (AI) workflows become increasingly predictable, efficient, and cost-effective.

- Complex AI capabilities are translated into simple, intuitive user experiences.

LLM Application Engineer Qualifications:

- Artificial Intelligence (AI) experience required.

- Strong software engineering fundamentals with experience building AI-powered applications.

- Hands-on experience with Large Language Models (LLMs), generative AI, or agent-based systems.

- Experience designing prompts, workflows, evaluations, or AI behavior.

- Ability to write clean, production-quality code.

- Comfortable working across abstraction layers from model to system to product.

- Strong problem-solving skills in ambiguous, fast-moving environments.

- Bias toward shipping, iteration, and continuous improvement.

- Tech Stack: Python, LLM APIs and model providers, including OpenAI-compatible APIs and open-weight models, Agent frameworks and orchestration systems, Vector databases and retrieval systems, Backend services, APIs, and distributed systems, and PyTorch / JAX.

Benefits include medical insurance, Dental, Vision, Savings Plan Options, PTO, etc.
