AI Engineer Trainee
Role - AI Engineer (Entry Level)
Location - Dallas, TX
Job Type - Full time
As an AI Engineer Trainee, you will work with senior AI engineers and architects to build, test, and deploy AI/ML and GenAI solutions. The role provides hands-on exposure to real-world AI workflows, including data preparation, model development, evaluation, and integration with business applications.
Key Responsibilities
• Assist in developing and training machine learning and GenAI models under guidance.
• Perform data preprocessing, feature engineering, and exploratory data analysis.
• Support development of AI applications using Python and ML frameworks.
• Contribute to evaluation of AI/LLM outputs for quality, accuracy, factuality, and bias.
• Document model behaviour, training process, datasets used, and versioning.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams for model testing and integration.
• Stay updated with emerging AI technologies, research, and tools.
Education
• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, IT, Data Science, or related fields
Technical Skills (AI & GenAI Focus)
• Strong skills in Python
• Strong foundation in Python and libraries such as NumPy, Pandas, Scikit-learn.
• Basic understanding of deep learning frameworks (TensorFlow, PyTorch).
• Familiarity with GenAI concepts (LLMs, embeddings, prompt engineering)
• Core Concepts: LLMs (GPT, BERT), Generative Models (GANs, VAEs, Diffusion).
• Tools & Frameworks: LangChain, Hugging Face, OpenAI API, Azure OpenAI Service.
• Cloud Platforms: Azure AI, AWS Bedrock, GCP Vertex AI.
• Advanced Topics: RAG pipelines, Vector DBs (Pinecone, FAISS), Prompt Engineering, Agentic AI, Model Context Protocol (MCP)
• Development Skills: Python, TensorFlow, PyTorch, CI/CD for AI pipelines.
Quality, Safety & Ethics (AI)
• Awareness of AI fairness, bias, privacy, and responsible AI practices.
• Familiarity with model evaluation metrics for classification/regression and LLM-specific metrics (quality, hallucination checks, factuality).
