About fullthrottle.ai
At fullthrottle.ai, we're focused on delivering cutting-edge applications & data services to our clients, including advertising agencies, media companies and brands. Our patented, privacy-compliant technology powers next-level marketing by unlocking first-party data at scale—giving advertisers the edge they need in a cookieless world.
As a fully remote, fast-growing startup, we move quickly, embrace innovation, and follow an Agile/Scrum framework to deliver impactful solutions. We're looking for someone who thrives in a collaborative environment, enjoys solving complex technical challenges, and wants to help build and scale the future of AI at fullthrottle.ai.
The Role:
As our AI Platform Engineer, you will ensure the reliable, secure, and scalable deployment of AI systems across fullthrottle’s platforms. You’ll focus on building and managing production infrastructure, developing robust APIs and microservices, and optimizing for cost-effective operations. This role requires hands-on expertise in AI/ML platform engineering, production deployment of AI systems, infrastructure as code, and cloud-native engineering to deliver high-performance AI solutions.
You will play a pivotal role in implementing best practices for deploying, operating, and scaling AI/ML systems in production, defining infrastructure as code for AWS, and driving observability and optimization across our AI production environments.
Key Responsibilities:
- API & Microservices Development: Build and manage production-grade APIs and microservices to support scalable AI deployments.
- AI Agent Development: Build, tune, and deploy AI agents using Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Runtime and the Strands Agent SDK. Design system prompts, implement tool routing, and optimize for latency and accuracy.
- Infrastructure as Code: Define and manage Terraform modules for AWS services (Lambda, S3, RDS, OpenSearch, etc.).
- Observability & Monitoring: Monitor system performance and implement observability practices using tools such as New Relic, Cloudwatch, and OpenTelemetry to ensure reliability, proactive alerting, and rapid issue resolution.
- CI/CD Pipelines: Build and maintain CodePipeline/CodeBuild pipelines for automated testing, Docker builds, and ECS deployments.
- Optimization: Optimize infrastructure and operations for cost, latency, and reliability, ensuring efficient use of resources.
- Compliance & Security: Ensure systems meet compliance standards and maintain robust security controls.
Required Qualifications:
- Experience: Minimum 2+ years of hands-on AI engineering experience, including building and deploying scalable infrastructure for AI/ML systems.
- Technical Expertise: Expert-level Python and AWS (Lambda, API Gateway, CloudWatch).
- AI/ML Experience: Hands-on experience with AI/ML systems, including model integration, inference workflows, or lightweight model development, along with Amazon Bedrock (including AgentCore Runtime), LLM prompt engineering, or agent frameworks. Must be comfortable building and iterating on AI/ML-driven application logic and agent workflows in production.
- Infrastructure as Code: Strong experience with Terraform and/or CloudFormation for AWS resource management.
- Production Experience: Proven ability to operate large-scale, multi-tenant SaaS architectures in production.
- Monitoring & Optimization: Deep understanding of system monitoring, cost optimization, and compliance in cloud environments.
- Education/Certifications: Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Data Engineering, or a related field. Relevant certifications in AWS or DevOps are a plus.
- Collaboration: Proven ability to work effectively in cross-functional teams and communicate technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders.
You're Not a Fit If...
- You haven’t previously built and managed production-grade APIs or infrastructure for AI systems.
- You are not an expert in Python and/or AWS.
- You prefer a slow-moving environment and are not comfortable with the pace of a startup.
- You prefer to react to problems rather than plan ahead strategically.
- You do not want to be hands-on with the technical details of the role.
Our Core Principles:
We're a team that believes in big ideas and fast execution, adopting a "crawl, walk, run" approach to innovation. We're looking for someone who embodies these principles:
- Customer Centricity: We always put our customers first.
- Growth Mindset: We are constantly learning and evolving.
- Accountability & Integrity: We take ownership and act with honesty.
- Collaboration & Humility: We work together and value every voice.
- Open Communication: We believe in transparency and direct feedback.
If you are a passionate, experienced AI platform engineer with a drive to build and optimize advanced AI infrastructure, we want to hear from you. This is an opportunity to make a real impact at a dynamic and growing company.

Prepare your application
Use the description above to assess your fit for fullthrottle.ai. This checklist is guidance from Resumize, rather than additional requirements from the employer. Imported listings can be shortened or change after collection, so confirm the complete description and current availability before sending an application.
Match requirements to evidence
Identify the responsibilities and skills the employer explicitly names. For each important requirement, choose one example from your work, education, training, or projects. Explain what you did, how you did it, and what changed as a result. Include a measurable outcome when you can support it. If you lack a requirement, describe related experience accurately instead of adding an unfamiliar skill to your resume.
Put the most relevant examples near the top of your resume. Keep job titles, dates, qualifications, and contact details consistent across your application materials. Use the employer’s terminology when it describes your experience accurately; a copied list of keywords does not explain your contribution. A short, specific bullet is easier to review than a paragraph that mixes several unrelated duties.
Check the working arrangement
Confirm the location, schedule, employment type, and any eligibility requirements on the employer’s site. A remote label does not establish worldwide eligibility or flexible hours. If compensation, benefits, equipment, travel, or contract duration are missing from this listing, write down your questions for the recruiter. Do not assume details from another opening at the same company apply to this role.
Review before submitting
Follow the employer’s requested file format and application instructions. Open your exported resume and check that its text is selectable, its sections read in order, and its links work. Proofread names, dates, and contact information. Share confidential work samples only when you have permission, and use an anonymized example when necessary.
Submit through a trusted employer or recruiting destination. If the original listing has disappeared, search the employer’s careers page for the title rather than assuming the vacancy remains open. Save the application date, job reference, and the version of your resume you sent. Those details help you prepare for a later conversation and avoid submitting conflicting information through several job boards.
Review your resume for writing and readability feedback, or browse other openings if this opportunity is unavailable.
