Summary We are looking for an AI Engineer with a strong foundation in software engineering, data engineering, or machine learning, and hands-on experience building modern AI systems. This role is best suited for someone who has built production software or data-intensive systems and has more recently expanded into large language models (LLMs), retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), and agentic AI systems. Candidates with a strong software engineering or data engineering foundation are especially encouraged to apply. We are looking for someone with an evaluation-first mindset who believes AI systems should be designed with clear success criteria, testing strategies, and monitoring plans from the start. The ideal candidate enjoys building reliable production systems, collaborating across engineering, product, and business teams, and is excited to continue growing as an AI engineer. Strong software engineering fundamentals, curiosity, and a willingness to learn are just as important as prior AI experience. We're looking for someone who enjoys solving complex engineering problems, works well within real-world business and regulatory constraints, and is excited to help build the next generation of AI capabilities at Mitek. Humility, accountability, and a growth mindset are essential for success in this role. The right candidate is comfortable admitting mistakes, learning from feedback, challenging assumptions, and adjusting quickly when evidence suggests a better path forward. Why This Role Matters This role matters because we need more than someone who can build AI features. We need someone who can build AI systems in a thoughtful and reliable way. That means starting with a clear plan for how quality, risk, and business impact will be measured, and carrying that through design, deployment, monitoring, and continuous improvement. Success in this role requires balancing innovation with reliability while working closely with engineering, product, legal, and business stakeholders to build AI systems that are trustworthy, measurable, and production-ready.
