VAST Data is looking for a Senior AI Engineer to design and build production-grade, LLM-powered systems. You'll work at the intersection of software engineering and applied AI — shipping agents, RAG pipelines, and tool-using systems that solve real problems at scale. This is a hands-on, high-ownership role for someone who thrives at the frontier of what's possible with modern LLMs and isn't afraid to write the glue, the infrastructure, and the prompts that make it all work.
This is a **cross-functional, company-wide role**. You won't be embedded in a single product team — instead, you'll partner with every department to identify high-leverage opportunities and build AI-powered tools and workflows that boost productivity and efficiency across the entire organization.
This is a great opportunity to be part of one of the fastest-growing infrastructure companies in history, an organization that is in the center of the hurricane being created by the revolution in artificial intelligence.
