The Cypress Group is seeking an early AI engineer to build systems that make high-stakes decisions and improve continuously based on real-world outcomes. The role involves owning the AI development process end-to-end, including defining, designing, and shipping production code without a predefined roadmap.

Responsibilities

• Build systems where decisions → outcomes → automatic improvement
• Develop recommendation / decisioning systems that learn from real-world feedback
• Design evaluation frameworks and simulations
• Fine-tune and deploy models using proprietary data
• Build agents that automate complex workflows
• Own everything from data → model → production

Skills

• Proven experience building closed-loop systems in production (non-negotiable)
• Background in RL, recommendation systems, or adaptive learning systems
• Strong end-to-end ownership (data, models, deployment)
• Proficient in Python + modern AI stack (LLMs, embeddings, etc.)
• Comfortable in fast-moving, ambiguous environments
• Built AI systems that improved from real user or system feedback
• Early-stage or product-focused experience
