Job Description

Machine Learning Engineer – LLM Focus

Location: Dallas

Salary: $115,000 – $130,000 base + 15% Bonus

Company Overview:

Join a fast-growing, innovative organization at the forefront of artificial intelligence, committed to pushing boundaries in generative AI and Large Language Models (LLMs). They are solving cutting-edge problems with scalable machine learning and deploying solutions across industries.

Role Overview:

As a Senior Machine Learning Engineer with a specialization in LLMs, you will play a pivotal role in architecting, building, and deploying high-impact machine learning systems. You’ll collaborate cross-functionally with data scientists, research engineers, and business stakeholders to drive real-world applications of advanced AI.

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead development of ML/LLM solutions for tasks like summarization, classification, Q&A, and RAG.
• Collaborate on transformer models (e.g., GPT, LLaMA, Claude, Mistral).
• Fine-tune and optimize pre-trained LLMs using best practices.
• Build and maintain ML pipelines with MLFlow, Airflow, or Kubeflow.
• Partner with MLOps/DevOps to ensure scalable, secure production systems.
• Deploy models using Docker, Kubernetes, and serving frameworks (e.g., TensorFlow Serving, TorchServe, FastAPI).
• Implement model versioning, blue-green/canary deployments, and performance monitoring.
• Develop scalable data pipelines for text and embeddings.
• Stay up to date with LLM/AI research and apply findings to real-world problems.
• Document workflows and support knowledge sharing across the team.

Required Qualifications:

• MSc or PhD in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Engineering, Mathematics, or related STEM field.
• Proven experience with LLMs and transformer-based architectures (e.g., BERT, RoBERTa, GPT, T5).
• Expertise in developing and deploying ML models in production environments.
• Strong Python programming skills; familiarity with ML/AI libraries (Hugging Face Transformers, TensorFlow, PyTorch).
• Experience with cloud platforms (AWS preferred), container orchestration (Kubernetes), and distributed data processing (Apache Spark, Kafka).
• Hands-on experience with ML tools including MLFlow, Airflow, and experiment tracking systems.
• Solid understanding of DevOps and CI/CD pipelines for ML systems.
• Strong communication skills with the ability to articulate technical details to non-technical stakeholders.

Preferred Experience:

• Experience in retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), vector databases (e.g., Pinecone, FAISS, Weaviate), and embedding models.
• Exposure to open-source LLM deployment frameworks like LangChain or LlamaIndex.
• Knowledge of reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF), prompt engineering, and evaluation metrics for generative models.
• Prior work in regulated or high-security environments (finance, healthcare, etc.) is a plus.

Compensation and Benefits:

• Base Salary: $115,000 – $130,000
• 15% Annual Bonus
• hybrid work setup
• Generous benefits package including health, dental, and vision insurance
• Professional development budget and opportunities to attend top AI conferences
