We are seeking a Senior AI Engineer to join our team. In this role, you will play a pivotal part in designing, refining, and evaluating strategies to optimize the performance of Large Language Models (LLMs) to solve real business challenges. You will collaborate with cross-functional teams—including internal subject matter experts, software engineers and product managers—to build and maintain cutting-edge AI agents and LLM-enabled applications.

The ideal candidate has previously built AI systems and deployed them to production, has a solid foundation in professional software development in a strongly typed language (such as Go, TypeScript, or similar), and a deep understanding of LLM techniques such as Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), few-shot prompting, guardrails, and evals.

What You'll Do

  • Develop and refine effective prompts for various AI use cases (e.g., data analysis, report generation, survey development, synthetic data generation).
  • Iterate rapidly on prompt design and development strategies to improve model performance, accuracy, efficiency, and reduce latency.
  • Collaborate with the AI Native team to experiment with and deploy state-of-the-art LLM-enabled systems.
  • Contribute to production code and participate in code reviews.
  • Implement features like RAG, few-shot prompting, and domain-specific fine-tuning.
  • Develop and execute evaluation plans to measure the performance of LLMs.
  • Gather user feedback, interpret results, and iteratively enhance model outputs and user experience.
  • Partner with product managers and stakeholders to translate customer use-cases and requirements into LLM-enabled solutions.
  • Coordinate with other developers to ensure seamless integration of AI models into applications and services. In many cases, you will own implementation end-to-end.

Who You Are

  • 5+ years of professional experience in software engineering, AI/ML, data science, or a related field.
  • 2+ years of hands-on experience with LLMs, such as OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, Hugging Face, etc. in production environments.
  • Proficiency with Python.
  • Experience with Git for team-based collaboration.
  • Demonstrated familiarity with RAG, few-shot prompting, tool-use, context engineering, and evals.
  • Experience evaluating LLM performance with metrics, user testing, and iterative improvements.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and ability to break down complex technical tasks.
  • Excellent written and verbal English language communication skills to effectively collaborate with team members and stakeholders.
  • Familiarity with vector databases (e.g., Postgresql+pgvector, Pinecone, Weaviate, Milvus) or semantic search technologies.
  • Professional experience with Go, TypeScript or other strongly typed language.
  • Experience with containerized environments.
  • Contributions to open-source ML projects or publication of AI research.

  • Note: We view the above section as a guide, not a checklist. Research shows that underrepresented/marginalized groups are less likely to apply for a job if they feel that they don’t meet 100% of the qualifications. We welcome diverse and non-traditional backgrounds and encourage you to apply even if you don’t satisfy every single bullet on this list! It’s expected that you’ll learn and grow throughout your time at Morning Consult, so if you’re open to building new skills, we’d love to hear from you.

Why Join Morning Consult?

  • Support a mission-critical function at a fast-growing, innovative company.
  • Be at the forefront of AI-driven transformation at Morning Consult, with the opportunity to experiment, learn, and set new industry standards.
  • Work with a talented, collaborative team and executive leadership.
  • Competitive compensation, benefits and opportunities for growth.
  • Flexible work arrangements and a culture that values continuous learning and development.

The expected salary range for this position is $146,300 - $243,400 with a midpoint of $194,900.
