Build the Future of AI in Financial Services
A leading, confidential enterprise organization is building next-generation AI and Generative AI solutions—and is seeking a Prompt Engineer who can operate at the intersection of Python development, LLM optimization, and enterprise-scale machine learning systems.
This is not a traditional developer role.
This is an opportunity to shape how AI thinks, responds, and performs in real-world, high-stakes environments—working directly with machine learning teams, business stakeholders, and evolving LLM ecosystems.
What You'll Do:
- Design, test, and optimize high-impact prompts across evolving LLM models (OpenAI + others)
- Build and maintain Python-based libraries supporting AI/ML solutions
- Partner with SMEs and business leaders to translate real-world problems into AI-driven solutions
- Continuously refine prompt performance through benchmarking, testing, and iteration
- Monitor and improve model performance, scalability, and reliability
- Contribute to enterprise-grade AI systems focused on resiliency, observability, and performance
What You Bring:
- 5+ years of experience in Python development (production-level)
- Hands-on experience with Prompt Engineering + LLMs (OpenAI or similar)
-
Strong understanding of:
- Object-oriented design
- Scalable system architecture
- Observability, performance, and resiliency
- Experience working in Agile environments
- Ability to communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
Preferred (Highly Valuable)
- Experience with multiple LLMs and prompt benchmarking frameworks
- Exposure to machine learning + vector databases
- Cloud development experience (Azure preferred)
- Background in FinTech or regulated environments
- Experience in global or distributed teams
Compensation:
- $66,000 – $73,000 USD base salary
- Full benefits package
Why This Role Stands Out
- Work at the forefront of Generative AI + enterprise transformation
- Influence real-world AI systems used at scale
- Collaborate with highly technical teams shaping AI strategy and execution
- Gain exposure to cutting-edge LLM advancements and applications
