AI Engineer - GenAI / AI Assistant

We are looking for a very strong Senior AI Engineer to join an elite, fully remote team of 6 supporting the private equity division of a top-tier global consulting and advisory firm.

You'll work within a new department tied to the firm's private equity line of business. The team is building the AI Assistant layer on top of RMS, an already operational system containing a large volume of structured and unstructured data from the Credit team covering assets, operations, clients, and initiatives. The AI Assistant enables fast analysis, lookups, and data processing on top of that data.

• Comfortable working daily with AI coding tools such as Claude Code or Cursor
• Very strong organizational skills, able to manage scope and priorities with minimal oversight
• Very strong communication and presentation skills in English; able to communicate quickly, clearly, and correctly with a US-based client

Nice to Have

• Background working with structured and unstructured financial/credit data

Key Responsibilities

• Contribute to the ongoing development of an operational AI system (RMS) used by the Credit team, adding an AI Assistant layer for fast analysis, lookups, and data processing
• Build and improve RAG pipelines, tool-calling flows, and MCP integrations using LangGraph and LangChain
• Collaborate closely with a small, high-caliber team of 6–8 engineers and the team manager
• Communicate directly with the client, primarily US-based, when needed in a clear, consulting-appropriate manner
• Work independently with minimal supervision while staying tightly aligned with team priorities and client expectations
