About TensorOps
TensorOps is a boutique AI consultancy that bridges strategy and execution, we design and ship production-grade AI systems for enterprise clients, from Fortune 500 companies to fast-growing unicorns. Our work spans agentic AI, LLM fine-tuning, RAG systems, and ML-driven products, deployed on AWS, GCP, and Azure.
We've shipped AI systems impacting 200M+ end users daily, partnered with 11 unicorns and NASDAQ-listed companies (including Notion, ServiceNow, JFrog, Seeking Alpha, Armis, and GoCardless), and get 95% of validated ideas into production within two months. We're Google Cloud, AWS, and Cloudflare partners, and we're 100% remote by design.
About the roleWe're hiring a Mid/Senior ML Engineer to contribute to technical direction across client engagements and mentor a growing team of junior ML engineers. You'll work directly with clients, taking AI systems from prototype to production-grade deployment.
In this role, you will:
- Design, build, and deploy production ML and LLM-based systems (RAG, agentic workflows, fine-tuning, embeddings) for enterprise clients
- Own technical delivery end-to-end: from architecture and prototyping to deployment, monitoring, and iteration
- Work directly with client engineering and product teams to translate business needs into scoped, shippable technical solutions
- Mentor and support other ML engineers on the team — code reviews, technical guidance, and knowledge sharing
- Help shape internal best practices, tooling, and technical standards as the team grows
- Represent TensorOps technically in client conversations, workshops, and (optionally) at industry conferences
You’ll be part of a supportive, fast-growing team that values autonomy, open communication, and continuous learning.
