About the Role

Centric Software is seeking a Senior Frontier AI Deployment Engineer to bridge product, engineering, and business stakeholders in designing and delivering production-oriented generative AI solutions. This role requires strong technical fluency, hands-on delivery experience, systems thinking, stakeholder alignment, clear communication, and sound product judgment.

Responsibilities

  • Lead discovery with business, product, data, security, and engineering stakeholders, converting ambiguous needs into clear use cases, requirements, acceptance criteria, risks, and delivery plans.
  • Act as the connective layer among distributed teams, ensuring crisp decisions, handoffs, documentation, and follow-through.
  • Shape solution designs for retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), AI agents, tool use, orchestration, evaluation, guardrails, observability, and human-in-the-loop workflows.
  • Guide prototypes and production implementations, making pragmatic tradeoffs across user value, model quality, latency, cost, security, reliability, and maintainability.
  • Partner with engineers and architects on interfaces, data flows, integrations, deployment patterns, and operational readiness; contribute code or technical artifacts when it accelerates delivery.
  • Own stakeholder-facing demos and supporting demo sites and environments, including setup, access, content and data readiness, reliability, presentation quality, and ongoing maintenance.
  • Lead stakeholder updates and technical workshops.
  • Define meaningful success measures and evaluation approaches for AI quality, safety, adoption, and business impact.
  • Stay current on rapidly changing AI capabilities and translate new developments into practical recommendations.

Requirements

  • 6+ years of experience in software, data, ML/AI, solutions engineering, technical product delivery, or a closely related field.
  • Demonstrated senior-level ownership of ambiguous, cross-functional initiatives, including driving decisions and delivery across multiple phases.
  • Demonstrated delivery experience with at least one generative AI system (e.g., RAG, AI agents, copilots, semantic search, LLM-enabled workflow automation).
  • Excellent written, verbal, and visual communication skills, including explaining technical choices to nontechnical stakeholders and business context to engineers.
  • Experience eliciting requirements, resolving ambiguity, prioritizing scope, defining acceptance criteria, and driving cross-functional execution.
  • Working knowledge of modern generative AI patterns: prompt and context design, embeddings and retrieval, agent/tool orchestration, model selection, evaluation, safety controls, observability, and production operations.
  • Ability to review architecture and code, troubleshoot across system boundaries, and produce lightweight prototypes or examples.
  • Experience collaborating across countries and time zones, with disciplined asynchronous documentation and handoffs.
  • Practical understanding of enterprise concerns including data privacy, security, access control, responsible AI, compliance, cost, and reliability.
