Key skills for this role
Yield Solutions Group (dba RefiJet) is one of the country's largest auto-refinance BPOs, processing more than 15,000 applications per month across a network of 30+ lending partners. We operate at the intersection of financial services, technology, and customer experience, and AI is central to how we plan to scale all three.
This role sits inside our Technology Department, which consolidates Product, Development, DevOps, AI/Data, IT, and Support under a single leadership structure. The AI Engineer reports directly to the AI / Data Lead and works across the full stack of AI development: data pipelines, model development, LLM tooling, and production deployment.
This is a production-focused role. You will own systems that run on real loan volume, influence real borrower outcomes, and operate under the SLA expectations of our lender partners. The work is high-visibility, the feedback loop is short, and the roadmap is yours to help shape.
The AI Engineer is responsible for designing, building, and maintaining AI-powered systems across the borrower journey, lender pipeline, and internal operations. Responsibilities span four domains.
Partner with the CTO and product leadership to define the AI roadmap, prioritize use cases, and align engineering investment to business outcomes.
Translate operational problems into well-scoped ML and AI problem statements. Own the solution architecture from initial design through production deployment.
Establish internal standards for AI development, including model evaluation frameworks, validation protocols, and responsible deployment practices.
Present technical findings, tradeoffs, and recommendations clearly to non-technical stakeholders, including operations leadership, lender partners, and executive teams.
