CoPilot Innovations, a subsidiary of The Plumtree Group, is looking for an AI Engineering Lead to act as the technical authority across our engineering team.

 

This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who can build production-ready AI systems while coaching engineers, reviewing architectures, and setting strong engineering standards internally as well as across client accounts.

  • Leading and developing a high-performing Al engineering team while setting engineering standards across multiple client engagements
  • Translating complex Al concepts into clear, practical direction for business and technical audiences
  • Architecting and delivering production-grade end-to-end Al solutions (ML + newer generative/agent-based approaches)
  • Acting as a trusted advisor in shaping Al roadmaps, solution design, and delivery approaches
  • Define best practices for AI-first software development, cloud deployment, and engineering quality

What We’re Looking For:

  • Strong hands-on experience with Python, LLM applications, RAG, agentic workflows, and AI microservices
  • Experience with tools such as LangChain, LlamaIndex, vector databases, PyTorch/TensorFlow, Docker, Kubernetes, and cloud platforms like AWS, Azure, or GCP
  • Understanding of MLOps/LLMOps, CI/CD, AI observability, latency, cost, and performance optimization
  • Proven experience mentoring or leading engineering teams
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to explain AI trade-offs to both technical and non-technical stakeholders

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys building advanced AI systems while raising the technical standard of an entire engineering team.
