Role Overview

NewRocket is seeking a hands-on AI Engineer – Campus and Graduate Level to support the design, development, testing, and deployment of AI-enabled solutions for enterprise clients.

This role is ideal for an early-career engineer with foundational experience in software development, data, and generative AI who is eager to work on practical, high-impact applications of AI—including Claude-powered applications, agentic workflows, intelligent automations, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), and ServiceNow-based solutions.

You will work closely with AI engineers, product managers, data scientists, platform teams, and client-facing consultants to prototype and deliver scalable AI capabilities. You will gain exposure to the full AI solution lifecycle, from use-case discovery and proof-of-concept development through production rollout, evaluation, monitoring, and continuous improvement.

Travel to clients and conferences as needed.

Key Responsibilities

AI Solution Development

• Assist in building, testing, maintaining, and documenting AI-enabled applications, workflows, and reusable accelerators.
• Develop prototypes and proof-of-concepts using generative AI, large language models (LLMs), including Claude and other model providers as appropriate, RAG, APIs, and workflow automation tools.
• Support the development of agentic AI solutions that can use enterprise context, call approved tools or APIs, and help orchestrate enterprise processes.
• Assist with prompt and context engineering, including instruction design, examples, structured inputs, response formatting, and output constraints.
• Help build AI applications using structured outputs, tool use/function calling, human-in-the-loop review, and workflow orchestration patterns.
• Help integrate AI capabilities with enterprise platforms, including ServiceNow, where applicable.
• Write clean, maintainable, secure, and well-documented code following engineering best practices.

Retrieval, Data, Evaluation & Quality

• Support data preparation, document ingestion, chunking, embedding, retrieval, prompt development, evaluation, and testing activities for AI solutions.
• Assist with RAG solutions that ground AI responses in authorized enterprise knowledge sources and data.
• Help assess model and workflow performance across accuracy, relevance, groundedness, reliability, latency, cost, safety, and user experience.
• Assist with the development of test cases, evaluation datasets, monitoring approaches, and feedback loops for AI applications.
• Support techniques that improve reliability and user trust, such as output validation, citation or source-grounding patterns, fallback handling, confidence thresholds, and escalation workflows.
• Identify issues, document findings, and contribute to iterative improvements across AI prototypes and production solutions.

Responsible AI & Security

• Apply responsible AI principles in the development and testing of AI solutions, including awareness of model limitations, hallucinations, bias, privacy, and appropriate human oversight.
• Help implement safeguards for sensitive data, access controls, authorized data use, prompt-injection risks, and unsafe or unintended tool execution.
• Support human-in-the-loop workflows for sensitive, high-impact, low-confidence, or exception-based AI decisions.
• Document solution behavior, known limitations, test results, and operational considerations for internal teams and client stakeholders.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Collaborate with product, engineering, design, data science, ServiceNow platform, and consulting teams to translate business needs into technical solutions.
• Participate in requirements gathering, solution-design sessions, sprint planning, code reviews, and retrospectives.
• Support client-facing teams with technical research, demos, proof-of-concept development, and implementation activities.
• Communicate technical concepts, solution behavior, and findings clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Contribute to internal documentation, technical playbooks, reusable components, prompt libraries, evaluation assets, and knowledge-sharing sessions.

AI Innovation & Research

• Stay current on emerging AI technologies, frameworks, Anthropic and Claude capabilities, and enterprise use cases.
• Complete relevant Anthropic training, partner enablement, and technical education opportunities as available through NewRocket’s partnership.
• Research opportunities to apply generative and agentic AI to improve operational efficiency, employee experiences, customer service, knowledge management, and enterprise workflows.
• Contribute ideas for new AI capabilities, reusable intellectual property, Agent Packs, accelerators, and product enhancements.
