Senior AI Engineer

About the Role

As a Senior AI Engineer at Seven Peaks, you’ll work with a multinational team building AI-powered products for enterprise clients from retrieval-based knowledge assistants to autonomous agents that act on real systems. Hands-on role for someone equally comfortable shipping a clean backend service, integrating a new model, and tuning retrieval quality or agent behavior for measurable improvement. You’ll work directly with clients to turn ambiguous business problems into AI systems that ship and hold up in production. Hybrid role based in Bangkok.

Responsibilities

• Design and build backend services and APIs that power AI features.
• Integrate and optimize LLMs from leading providers: prompts, structured outputs, streaming, tool calling, cost/latency tuning.
• Design and build AI agents from single-purpose to multi-step, tool-using systems with the right balance of autonomy, guardrails, and human-in-the-loop.
• Develop tools and integrations that connect agents to real systems safely.
• Own model evaluation, drift monitoring, and AI observability evaluation suites; track quality, latency, cost, safety, and regression detection.
• Champion AI governance and responsible AI practices: privacy, PII, access controls, audit trails, versioning.
• Implement real-time and event-driven features where needed (e.g. WebSocket).
• Collaborate with the Data team on upstream data, vector indexes, and embeddings.
• Establish AI engineering best practices and mentor engineers.
• Consult directly with clients on the right AI architecture.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Mathematics, Statistics, or a related field.
• 5+ years backend engineering, with 1–2 years shipping AI/LLM features in production.
• Strong proficiency in a modern backend language with async programming (e.g. Python).
• Working knowledge of relational and vector databases (e.g. pgvector, Pinecone, Weaviate, Qdrant).
• Production experience with commercial LLM APIs (OpenAI, Gemini, Anthropic) and RAG pipelines.
• Shipped AI agents or tool-using LLM systems in production with a view on when agents are the right answer.
• Practical experience with LLM evaluation, drift detection, and observability (e.g. LangFuse, LangSmith, or in-house).
• Awareness of AI governance and responsible AI privacy, PII, versioning, auditability.
• Familiarity with LLM orchestration tooling (LangChain, LlamaIndex, or equivalents).
• Strong API design fundamentals: OAuth 2.0, rate limiting, retries, resilient integrations.
• Strong written and spoken English.
• Good to have: agent frameworks/protocols (MCP, OpenAI Agents SDK, LangGraph, CrewAI); AI risk/compliance frameworks (EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF, ISO/IEC 42001); document processing for unstructured data (Docling, Unstructured, Tika); cloud experience (Azure, AWS, GCP); Microsoft Graph / SharePoint / PowerBI integrations; consultancy or client-facing background.
