The Role

As an Applied AI Engineer, you’ll research and utilize state-of-the-art Gen AI and machine learning (ML) techniques to successfully deliver solutions to our customers. You will work directly with our customers to understand their business and technical needs and design and deliver AI solutions to solve them. You will also help define Snorkel’s Applied AI tooling by translating repeatable real-world challenges into reusable solution recipes, workflows, best practices, and platform-level capabilities that become part of Snorkel’s next generation of AI tooling. We move fast and are constantly prototyping and innovating new ways to deliver value to our customers. This position is ideal for someone who enjoys solving complex problems, bridging the gap between AI technology and business value, working directly with customers, keeping up-to date with AI research, and standardizing bespoke solutions into internal recipes and staying naturally curious about the infrastructure that underpin the Applied AI stack end-to-end.

Main Responsibilities

- Partner with customers to build and deploy impactful Gen AI and machine learning solutions, from use case scoping and data exploration to model development and deployment. This will involve designing custom approaches using state-of-the-art tools, with the goal of delivering real business value and informing the evolution of Snorkel’s tooling.

- Develop and implement state of the art AI systems such as retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), fine-tuning pipelines, prompt engineering recipes and agentic workflows.

- Create augmented real-world datasets and comprehensive evaluation workflows to ensure model reliability, transparency, and stakeholder trust. A data- and evaluation-first mindset is essential for success in this role.

- Forge and manage relationships with our customers’ leadership and stakeholders to ensure successful development and deployment of AI projects.
