RemoteArlington, VA , Chicago, IL, Remote, USSE120k - 140k USD

Since 2017, Lovelytics has helped some of the most complex enterprises in Media & Entertainment, Manufacturing, Retail & CPG, Healthcare & Life Sciences, and Financial Services actually modernize their data and put AI to work — not in a deck, but in production. We move fast, stay close to the cutting edge, and care more about outcomes than optics.

We're the first consulting firm backed by Databricks Ventures — which tells you something about how seriously we take the technology we build on. Alongside Interlock Equity, that backing has helped us grow from 50 to 500+ people in three years, while keeping the technical depth and low-ego culture that makes the work worth doing.

Lovelytics is seeking a Generative AI Engineer (Senior Consultant) with hands-on experience delivering client-facing projects in the Generative AI domain, particularly on the Databricks platform. As part of our growing AI & GenAI practice, this role offers an exciting opportunity to design and deploy state-of-the-art solutions that combine language models, vector databases, and cutting-edge orchestration frameworks.

The Sr Consultant will play a pivotal role in delivering client engagements focused on AI Agents, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), LLM application development, prompt engineering / DSPy, GenAI-driven automation, and advanced NLP. Our ideal candidate blends technical depth with consulting acumen and thrives in a collaborative, fast-paced environment.

Note: This position is not eligible for work sponsorship at this time.

Primary Responsibilities:

  • Deliver high-impact, client-facing engagements independently and/or lead specific workstreams under the supervision of an engagement lead and principal consultants.
  • Build and optimize LLM applications, including AI Agents, RAG systems, evaluation pipelines, prompt chaining, and output refinement.
  • Design, implement, and deploy GenAI pipelines using tools such as DSPy, MLFlow, LangChain, LlamaIndex, and Databricks Mosaic AI.
  • Work hands-on with models like OpenAI GPT, LLaMA, Claude, and others—fine-tuning or prompt-tuning as required.
  • Ingest and process unstructured and structured data for use in GenAI systems, including document parsing, chunking, vectorization, and retrieval.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to build custom UI and API integrations and GenAI-powered user experiences.
  • Implement enterprise-grade best practices for security, compliance, evaluation, and governance in GenAI projects.
  • Develop evaluation frameworks using MLFow, Mosaic AI Eval tools, and standard and custom metrics.
  • Support CI/CD and DABs for AI applications and promote code and model artifacts across environments.
  • Contribute to internal accelerators and reusable GenAI components as part of our growing framework library.
  • Work closely with senior leadership to design architecture and delivery plans tailored to client needs.

Our Ideal Candidate's Skills and Experiences:

  • B.S. in Computer Science or equivalent technical field.
  • 3–5 years of experience in Machine Learning or NLP; at least 1–2 years working with LLMs or Generative AI systems, preferably on Databricks.
  • Proficiency with open-source LLM tooling such as Hugging Face Transformers, LangChain, or similar orchestration libraries.
  • Strong hands-on experience with Databricks (Unity Catalog, MLFlow, Delta Tables, etc.).
  • Familiarity with GenAI-specific challenges including hallucination mitigation, grounding techniques, and evaluation frameworks.
  • Experience designing and deploying applications with security, compliance, and scalability in mind.
  • Excellent communication skills and a strong ability to engage with technical and business stakeholders.

What We Promise You:

  • Meaningful, cutting-edge projects in Generative AI with clients across industries—from Fortune 100 firms to disruptive startups.
  • Rapid learning and mentorship opportunities with AI/GenAI thought leaders and practitioners.
  • A culture of experimentation, innovation, and continuous improvement.
  • Opportunity to be a conference speaker, blogger, writer.
  • A diverse, inclusive team and one of the best GenAI teams, where your voice, ideas, and
