The Role

We’re looking for an AI Engineer focused on Generative AI, from large language models to diffusion systems, to build real, impactful applications. At ZURU AI, you’ll work on next-generation products that leverage LLMs, LoRA techniques, and generative pipelines to tackle real challenges and deliver value across ZURU’s global divisions. This is not a research-only role: we move fast from idea to demo to product. You’ll join an international team that drives AI strategically, turning generative concepts into real experiences used by designers, engineers, and creators worldwide.

Key Responsibilities

Design, prototype, and implement Generative AI systems (text, image, 3D, and multimodal) that enhance ZURU’s internal tools and workflows.

Experiment with LLMs, LoRA, diffusion, and agentic systems, adapting open-source and proprietary models for practical use.

Translate research papers and emerging techniques into working demos with measurable impact.

Collaborate with UX, OS, and frontend teams to bring your models to life inside real products.

Build and maintain internal tools, datasets, and pipelines that accelerate experimentation.

Occasionally support broader ML or Computer Vision initiatives.

Share learnings and foster an AI-first culture through internal sessions, docs, and experiments.

Requirements

3–6 years of experience in AI engineering, with proven hands-on work in Generative AI over the past couple of years (text, image, or multimodal).

Strong Python skills and experience with frameworks such as PyTorch, Hugging Face, or ComfyUI.

Solid understanding of transformer architectures, fine-tuning, LoRA, and model adaptation.

Familiarity with LangChain, OpenAI SDK, or similar orchestration frameworks.

Ability to quickly move from concept to prototype, iterating fast and documenting results clearly.

English proficiency (B2 or higher) and comfort working in a global, English-speaking environment.

Collaborative mindset — curious, humble, and eager to learn and teach within a tight-knit team.

Nice to Have

Exposure to model evaluation and benchmarking practices.

Experience bridging research to production (deployment, monitoring, or scaling pipelines).

Some C++ familiarity for integrating AI into high-performance applications.

Background or interest in ML or Computer Vision

Who You Are

You’re an AI enthusiast who loves exploring new models, frameworks, and ideas.

You understand both the science and the craft of AI — reading papers, experimenting, and building.

You see every model as a starting point, not a limit.

You thrive in a fast-paced, cross-functional team and want your work to have tangible impact.

You believe in our motto: “AI is not the final destination, but a tool that empowers us to foresee possibilities and shape the future.”
