Job Title: AI/ML Engineer


Job Type: Full-Time


About Us:

micro1 is the end-to-end human data infrastructure behind AGI. Our AI recruiter model is used by frontier AI labs and Fortune 10s to source, vet, and deploy PhDs and professors from the world’s top universities at scale. These experts are placed directly into the training loops of the most advanced AI systems, powering the breakthroughs that move models forward. Our data platform converts their expertise into high-signal training datasets, and our talent management tooling measures, routes, and improves performance at scale.


Job Summary:

Join our team as a AI/ML Engineer and play a pivotal role in driving mission-critical government initiatives while also contributing to micro1’s proprietary AI infrastructure, you’ll harness advanced large language models (LLMs), retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), and multi-agent orchestration to deliver secure, scalable, and impactful machine learning systems. You’ll work closely with cross-functional experts, leveraging frontier AI platforms and the latest in agentic AI tooling.


Key Responsibilities:

  1. Design, implement, and optimize AI/ML models particularly leveraging LLMs, RAG, and prompt engineering for production grade applications.
  2. Develop and orchestrate multi-agent systems using frameworks such as LangGraph and LangChain.
  3. Integrate and deploy solutions on secure cloud environments, including AWS GovCloud, Google GovCloud, Azure IL5+, Vertex AI, and AWS Bedrock.
  4. Build robust data pipelines, manage ETL processes, and develop metadata catalogs and ontologies to ensure high-quality data for AI training and inference.
  5. Create and maintain REST APIs and SDK integrations to facilitate seamless data and model interactions.
  6. Collaborate with product, security, and engineering teams to ensure best-in-class delivery, following secure coding and DevOps best practices (CI/CD).
  7. Document technical decisions and communicate complex concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.


Required Skills and Qualifications:

  1. Proficiency in Python for AI/ML development, including experience with REST APIs and SDK integration.
  2. Hands-on experience with LLMs, RAG systems, and prompt engineering in production environments.
  3. Familiarity with multi-agent orchestration, tool use, and frameworks like LangGraph and LangChain.
  4. Deep understanding of cloud AI services (AWS GovCloud, Google GovCloud, Azure IL5+, Vertex AI, AWS Bedrock).
  5. Background in building and maintaining data pipelines, ontologies, metadata catalogs, and ETL processes.
  6. Strong grasp of secure coding and modern DevOps practices (CI/CD pipelines).
  7. Exceptional written and verbal communication skills for effective collaboration and documentation.


Preferred Qualifications:

  1. Experience with AI/agentic platforms, such as Anthropic for Gov, OpenAI Enterprise, Gemini Enterprise, or Grok Enterprise.
  2. Knowledge of metadata catalog platforms (MCP) and advanced API development techniques.
  3. Prior exposure to government or highly regulated cloud environments and compliance standards.

Questions you could be asked

  1. How do you structure and test a prompt to get consistent output from a language model?
  2. How would you design a retrieval step so the model answers from real data instead of guessing?
  3. What are the limits of OpenAI that you've run into, and how did you work around them?
  4. What's a project where you used Anthropic hands-on?
  5. Walk me through how you've used Gemini in your day-to-day work.

Adapt your resume

  • List these exact terms on your resume: Prompt engineering, RAG, OpenAI, Anthropic, and Gemini. An applicant tracking system matches the wording, not the idea.
  • Attach one line of real, concrete experience to at least one of them. A tool named with nothing behind it rarely survives a human read.
  • Lead with what you built, trained or shipped. This role is judged on the AI system itself, not the tools around it.
