OpenAI Solution Engineer
Seattle, WA (Hybrid)
OpenAI Solution Engineer with experience in AI, machine learning, and LLM (Large Language Model) integration to join our team.
As a key member of our solutions organization, you will work closely with enterprise clients to design, build, and deploy OpenAI-powered solutions that solve complex business problems.
This is a highly collaborative, hands-on technical role requiring both strong engineering capabilities and excellent communication skills.
Focus:
- Someone who can create custom GPT on daily basis
- Specializes in using OpenAI's foundation models (e.g., GPT-4, DALL E, Whisper).
- Focus is on building applications and products powered by pre-trained LLMs rather than training models from scratch.
Typical Work:
- Uses OpenAI APIs (chat, completion, embeddings, vision, audio) to build intelligent systems.
- Designs complex prompt workflows (prompt engineering, few-shot learning, prompt chaining).
- Integrates LLMs into apps for tasks like summarization, search, agents, chatbots, code generation, etc.
Tools & Skills:
- OpenAI API (GPT-4, GPT-4o, DALL E, Whisper)
- Prompt engineering, RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation)
- LangChain, LlamaIndex, Vector databases (Pinecone, FAISS, Weaviate)
- Python, FastAPI, front-end integration
- Knowledge of token limits, context management, cost optimization
Key Responsibilities:
- Collaborate with Sales, Product, and Engineering teams to understand client requirements and design scalable OpenAI-driven solutions.
- Develop and deliver customized technical demos, proof-of-concepts, and prototypes using OpenAI APIs and ecosystem tools (e.g., embeddings, vector stores, RAG, fine-tuning).
- Advise clients on best practices for integrating LLMs into their existing technology stacks, including data pipelines, APIs, and front-end applications.
- Guide clients through technical architecture decisions, deployment strategies, and performance optimization.
- Provide post-sale technical support and solution implementation, ensuring a smooth transition from proof-of-concept to production.
- Maintain expertise in OpenAI's product suite and stay current on industry trends in generative AI, LLMs, and natural language processing.
Required Qualifications:
- 3+ years in a Solutions Engineer, Sales Engineer, ML Engineer, or similar technical role.
- Proficiency with Python, REST APIs, and common ML/AI libraries (e.g., Hugging Face Transformers, LangChain, OpenAI SDK).
- Experience designing or deploying applications that utilize LLMs, embeddings, and RAG architecture.
- Strong understanding of software architecture and integration patterns, especially within cloud environments (AWS, Azure, or GCP).
- Excellent communication and stakeholder engagement skills, with the ability to explain complex topics to technical and non-technical audiences.
