Generative AI Engineer

Principal Consultant | Building Platform teams for start‑ups & scale‑ups @ Few&Far

A fast‑growing European startup is on a mission to bring enterprise‑grade cloud efficiency to startups and SMEs. They’ve built an AI DevOps agent that automatically identifies and fixes wasted spend in AWS environments — delivering 20% savings from day one.

Backed by leading European VCs, they’re now expanding their founding engineering team (<5 people) to build and scale the platform from the ground up.

🔧 The Role

As a Senior AI Platform / LLM Ops Engineer, you’ll take ownership of the core infrastructure and AI execution layer powering the product.

Responsibilities

• Set up the initial AWS/EKS foundation (Terraform, workloads, queues, workers)

• Build intelligent request routing across multiple model providers with retries, fallback logic, and budget controls

• Implement full end‑to‑end observability: traces, logs, token usage, latency, answer quality

• Establish a safe CI/CD pathway for shipping prompts, tools, and model integrations

• Design scalable architecture that can support the journey from startup → enterprise

• Collaborate with DevOps, AI, backend, and frontend teams to turn the AI agent into a world‑class production system

This is a role where you’ll influence every key technical decision and have huge ownership from day one.

Qualifications

• Operated production AI/LLM workloads with SLAs

• Handled per‑tenant budget and latency constraints

• Owned AWS + EKS/Kubernetes infrastructure using Terraform

• Implemented CI/CD with gated approvals, canaries, secure releases

• Experience with authentication/authorization patterns (Cognito/OIDC, multi‑tenant isolation, per‑workspace throttling)

• Built observability and guardrail stacks for LLM systems (e.g., LangSmith, tracing, metrics, token spend tracking, audit logs)

You thrive in fast‑moving environments, want meaningful ownership, and enjoy turning ambiguity into architecture.

✨ What’s on Offer

• Founding team role (<5 engineers)

• Exceptional ownership and autonomy

• Competitive salary: €75k–130k (flexible for exceptional candidates)

• On‑site in Berlin or Munich
