full-time Job Description:
About the Company We are seeking an AI Consultant (hands-on) to support rapid experimentation, proofs of concept (PoCs), and pilot AI solutions that accelerate priority business use cases. This role is focused on building quickly, testing ideas, and demonstrating value, leveraging existing internal platforms such as AWS, Databricks, Copilot studio & Power Automate rather than heavy production engineering. The ideal candidate is hands-on, pragmatic, and comfortable working in early-stage, exploratory AI efforts where speed and learning matter most. About the Role We are seeking an AI Consultant (hands-on) to support rapid experimentation, proofs of concept (PoCs), and pilot AI solutions that accelerate priority business use cases. Responsibilities Rapid PoCs & Pilots:
Build and iterate on quick-turn AI PoCs, pilots, and demos to validate ideas, workflows, and agent-based experiences. Emphasis is on speed, usability, and learning-not production hardening. Agentic Experimentation:
Familiar with agentic harness to configure and test AI agents in a controlled, repeatable way. This includes:
Defining agent roles, prompts, tools, light weight orchestration and simple memory/state handling Running structured experiments to test agent behaviors across scenarios Iterating on configurations to improve usefulness, reliability, and clarity Comparing different agent patterns (e.g., single vs. multi-step flows) and capturing learnings AWS Usage:
Use AWS Bedrock & Agentcore to build AI agents with foundation models, agents, and knowledge integrations to support use cases such as summarization, insight generation, content drafting, and workflow assistance. Databricks-Based Prototyping:
Leverage Databricks for to build AI agents, lightweight data exploration, preparation, and integration into AI experiments-using notebooks and existing datasets to move fast. Low-Code / Config-Driven Workflows:
Favor low-code or configuration-based approaches (prompt templates, reusable configs, simple orchestration patterns) to accelerate development and iteration. Lightweight Orchestration:
Connect AI components across tools (e.g., Bedrock ? Databricks ? APIs, multiple agents within same environment) using simple orchestration patterns sufficient for pilots and demonstrations. Stakeholder Collaboration:
Partner closely with product, analytics, and business teams to shape ideas, demo solutions, gather feedback, and refine concepts. Documentation & Readouts:
Clearly document PoCs, agent behaviors, findings, and recommendations so successful pilots can be evaluated for future scale-up. Qualifications 4-7+ years of experience in AI engineering, data engineering, AI enablement, or applied technology roles. Hands-on experience working with AWS (including AWS Bedrock or similar managed AI services). Working experience with Databricks (Genie spaces, Playground, etc.) Strong Python and SQL skills; comfortable working in notebooks and lightweight scripts. Experience building quick prototypes and explaining technical concepts clearly to non-technical stakeholders. Ability to work independently and move quickly in a remote, fast-paced environment. Required Skills Familiarity with core AI/ML concepts (e.g., LLMs, embeddings, prompt engineering). Exposure to agent-based AI patterns or evaluation frameworks. Basic understanding of orchestration or automation tools. Prior experience supporting early-stage AI pilots or innovation programs. Preferred Skills Delivery of multiple working PoCs or pilots within the first 4-8 weeks. Clear stakeholder signal on which ideas are viable and worth further investment. Demonstrated acceleration of workflows, insights, or decision-making through AI experimentation. Well-documented outcomes and recommendations to support next-phase scaling. Pay range and compensation package 6 month temp to hire contract. Remote. Pays up to $127.74 an hour depending on experience. ATR International, Inc. cannot sponsor work visas (H-1B, F-1 STEM OPT with I-983, or similar). Candidates must have valid U.S. work authorization.
