AI Principal Engineer
Indexed description
As a rapidly scaling Series A startup that raised $34 million in funding, we're proud to partner with globally recognized brands such as ASUS, Docker, Activision, H&R Block, and many others. Our diverse team of curious, open, and hard-working individuals is committed to cultivating a fast-paced, agile culture that values personal and professional growth.
About The Role
We're looking for a hands-on AI Principal Engineer to join Improvado and help shape the future of AI-powered marketing intelligence. This is a unique opportunity for someone who thrives at the intersection of deep technical work and real business impact — someone who can move from architecture decisions to production code to client conversations without missing a beat.
You'll work directly with our CEO and VP of Product on our most critical AI initiatives. Depending on your background and strengths, your focus will be either Product Architecture — owning the core AI Agent and data intelligence systems — or InfoSec Architecture — ensuring our AI infrastructure is secure, compliant, and enterprise-grade. Both tracks require the same core profile: a fast-moving, ownership-driven engineer who builds with urgency and thinks at a systems level.
Note: This is a high-ownership, high-impact role with a 6-day workweek. We're building fast and need someone ready to move with urgency and focus.
What You'll Do
- Design and implement key AI-powered features from the ground up — from architecture to production
- Build and evolve intelligent agents using modern LLM frameworks, including memory systems, Knowledge Graph design, multi-agent orchestration, and retrieval pipelines
- Drive technical architecture decisions across your focus area — Product or InfoSec — and ensure high code quality and reliability
- Write scalable, production-ready code and take full ownership of outcomes end-to-end
- Define and track success metrics — from model performance to user satisfaction and adoption
- (InfoSec track) Design and enforce security architecture across our AI systems
- (Product track) Own the architecture of our AI Agent product
- A catalyst for action with a relentless drive for execution — a doer who thrives on speed, takes absolute ownership, and is energized by a fast-paced environment
- Deep experience building AI/ML systems, ideally with LLMs in production — agents, retrieval, orchestration, evaluation
- Hands-on with modern AI tooling: prompt engineering, vector databases, Claude/Opus, Claude Code or similar agentic coding environments
- Strong product instincts — you think beyond models and love solving real user problems
- Clear communicator with strong English — comfortable leading technical discussions with clients and internal stakeholders
- Previous startup or fast-paced environment experience is a plus
- Available for a 6-day workweek with consistent overlap with US timezone (until 6pm PST)
- Velocity and speed of delivery
- Clear ownership and high trust
- Working on problems that matter
- Staying flexible while delivering high-quality work
- Fully remote work with overlap in U.S. time zones
- Competitive salary based on your experience and impact
- Relocation assistance to Latin America
- Modern AI tech stack and freedom to experiment
- 20 PTO days + U.S. holidays and extra days off
- Professional development reimbursement
- Stock options after the probation period
