About this role

Role Overview

Contribute to a GenAI engineering team that builds production software on top of frontier large language models. You will develop full-stack applications, integrate pre-release model APIs, and stress-test model-driven systems before they ship, working directly with the engineering manager to deliver working code quickly.

Key Responsibilities
  • Build and ship full-stack applications, services, and internal tools using Python, Java, Rust, C#, C++, or TypeScript that exercise model capabilities end to end.
  • Integrate pre-release model APIs and build the surrounding scaffolding, including tool interfaces, evaluation harnesses, and telemetry.
  • Diagnose, document, and communicate model and integration failure modes discovered while building, providing clear written feedback for the research team.
  • Prototype rapidly against shifting requirements, delivering working increments with limited up-front specification.
  • Collaborate with the engineering manager and other engineers to maintain code quality, consistent architecture, and technical documentation.
Qualifications
  • At least 3 years of professional experience building and shipping production software at a recognized, top-tier organization.
  • Production experience in at least one of Python, Java, Rust, C#, or C++, plus working proficiency in a second language from that list or TypeScript. This cohort is intentionally staffed across multiple language ecosystems.
  • Hands-on experience across the stack: backend services and APIs, a modern front-end framework such as React or equivalent, relational or document databases, and cloud deployment.
  • Proven ability to onboard onto an unfamiliar codebase and deliver working code quickly with minimal ramp-up.
  • Demonstrable career progression, and strong written communication skills to explain complex technical decisions clearly.
  • Ability to engage reliably for at least 40 hours per week during weekdays.
Work Terms
  • Location: United States.
  • Employment type: hourly, full-time commitment of 40 hours per week, weekdays.
  • This is a W-2 employment position with Cincinnatus LLC, serving as the employer of record, with placement on a leading AI lab team as part of their extended workforce.
  • Project and team assignments are coordinated to leverage language and technology strengths within the cohort.
Compensation
  • Pay rate: $50.00 to $65.00 per hour.
Eligibility
  • Cincinnatus LLC will be the employer of record for this position, providing W-2 employment, payroll, benefits, and compliance while placing employees directly within client teams.
  • The employer is an Equal Employment Opportunity employer, and does not discriminate on legally protected characteristics.
Onboarding and Initial Expectations

Once placed, you will onboard directly with the AI lab engineering manager on fast-moving projects. New engineers are expected to ramp quickly and contribute working code early in the engagement.
