AI Specialist

Prestige Staffing
Charlotte, NC Full Time
POSTED ON 6/2/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 8/21/2026
Our client is looking for a Senior Python / AI Engineer to help build and deploy production-grade AI applications that integrate large language models with enterprise data. This role is hands-on and engineering-focused, centered on delivering reliable, scalable AI services rather than research or experimentation.

You’ll work on end-to-end solutions that include Python-based APIs, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipelines, agent-style workflows, and cloud deployments. The ideal candidate is comfortable owning backend architecture, translating business needs into technical solutions, and operating in a mature, enterprise environment.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Design and develop Python services that integrate LLMs with structured and unstructured data
  • Build and maintain RAG pipelines using embeddings and vector databases
  • Implement agent-style workflows using frameworks such as LangChain or LlamaIndex
  • Develop and expose APIs that connect data sources, tools, and model endpoints
  • Prepare and structure data for AI use cases (SQL, document parsing, metadata tagging)
  • Deploy and operate AI services in AWS using Docker and cloud-native patterns
  • Evaluate model performance, prompts, and retrieval quality; support lightweight fine-tuning when needed
  • Collaborate with internal teams to deliver scalable, production-ready solutions

What We’re Looking For

  • 3 years of professional Python development experience
  • Hands-on experience building and deploying AI or data-driven applications
  • Practical experience with LLMs, embeddings, and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG)
  • Familiarity with vector databases (e.g., Pinecone, FAISS, Weaviate, Chroma)
  • Experience building APIs and backend services
  • AWS and Docker experience in production environments
  • Strong software engineering fundamentals and a production-first mindset

Nice to have

  • Experience with agent frameworks or multi-agent orchestration
  • Exposure to model evaluation, prompt testing, or lightweight fine-tuning approaches
  • Background working in large enterprise or regulated environments
