Artificial Intelligence Engineer at Harnham

Role Overview

An elite AI engineering team within a global organization is hiring a VP-level AI Engineer to lead the development and deployment of agentic AI solutions at enterprise scale. These systems will power internal automation and cost-efficiency efforts, touching millions of transactions and users across a complex, high-volume environment.

This role is about building and deploying production-grade LLM and agentic systems, not just experimentation or internal tools. You’ll be expected to design for scale, reliability, and real-world performance — with the full backing and reach of a global enterprise.

What You’ll Do

• Design and deploy LLM-based and agentic AI systems in cloud environments
• Lead architecture and development of production-ready AI applications
• Collaborate with engineering, infrastructure, and business partners to identify impactful AI opportunities
• Ship systems that reduce operational cost and increase automation across the organization
• Own solutions from prototype to deployment and long-term optimization

What We’re Looking For

Must-Haves

• 8+ years of experience in software engineering or AI/ML roles (commercial/industry)
• Hands-on experience deploying LLM-based systems at scale
• Strong skills in both ML model deployment and system architecture
• Prior ownership of AI products used by external users or across large orgs
• Experience in cloud-based environments (e.g., AWS, GCP, Azure)
• Track record of shipping AI into production, not just R&D or PoCs
• Stable career trajectory (ideally 2+ years per role)
