Staff Applied AI Engineer

Future Modern is recruiting for a well-established B2B SaaS client whose name is not provided. The Staff Applied AI Engineer will build and ship AI-native product intelligence, including LLM-powered systems, and partner with engineering, product, and design to bring these products to customers.

Responsibilities:

• Design and build applied AI systems, including RAG pipelines, agentic workflows and LLM-powered features, from prototype through production
• Decide when to prompt, when to fine-tune and when to use a different tool, and explain those tradeoffs to the team
• Build evaluation frameworks, catch hallucinations early, and implement guardrails that hold up under real load
• Own MLOps end to end: deployment, monitoring, latency, cost and reliability
• Contribute full-stack when the product needs it
• Partner with product and design to frame problems before writing code, and push back when the framing is wrong
