Eligibility: This role is open to U.S. citizens only due to client security and compliance requirements. Please apply through this posting only — do not contact Data-Sleek directly regarding this position. Applications received outside this channel will not be considered and reported to Upwork. Data-Sleek is looking for a Senior AI Solutions Engineer to lead our on-premise and government-cloud AI deployments. You will design, build, and deploy AI-powered data pipelines for clients who cannot use commercial cloud due to ITAR, CMMC, or other data residency constraints, beginning with a client in the aerospace and defense sector. Beyond this first engagement, you will become Data-Sleek's go-to engineer for AI deployments across defense and aerospace clients, building the practice rather than just executing a single project. About Data-Sleek Founded in 2020, Data‑Sleek® is a U.S.-based AI and data consulting firm that helps mid-market companies build the data foundation that AI actually runs on. We own the full path — data strategy, architecture, integration, warehousing, and AI implementation — so organizations can adopt AI with confidence, stay compliant, and scale, without first hiring an internal data team. Our distributed U.S. team (San Francisco, Los Angeles, Irvine, Dallas, Chicago, and New York) partners with clients across healthcare, finance, insurance, logistics, and technology, modernizing data platforms with best-in-class tools like Snowflake, dbt, Fivetran, Tableau, and AWS. Trusted by Fortune 500 institutions and growing companies alike, Data‑Sleek turns complex data into measurable outcomes — faster insight, lower cost, and AI projects that deliver. About the Role You will own the technical delivery of AI-powered data pipelines in restricted environments where commercial cloud is not an option. The immediate engagement centers on a Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) data migration: building a pipeline that connects to a client's SharePoint on a restricted Microsoft 365 government tenant, reads engineering documents, classifies and summarizes them, detects duplicates, and rates naming-convention compliance to produce a migration-readiness report. You will start on-premise, then help the client evaluate and move to government cloud for production. Key Responsibilities AI Pipeline Development Build AI pipelines that connect to a client's SharePoint on a government cloud tenant, read engineering documents, classify them by type, generate summaries, detect duplicates, and rate naming-convention compliance in support of PLM data migration. Catalog large document repositories and produce migration-readiness reports and Excel catalogs that give clients a clear, measurable picture of their data. Engineer document-parsing workflows across DOCX, PDF, and XLSX formats, including embedding generation and database operations. On-Premise & Government Cloud Deployment Deploy on-premise first — a Mac Mini running Gemma via Ollama — standing up, serving, and tuning local inference infrastructure. Evaluate and migrate to production on Azure OpenAI (Azure Government) or AWS Bedrock (GovCloud) when the client is ready to scale. Keep deployments compliant within ITAR-sensitive, restricted-network boundaries throughout. Architecture & Cost Advisory Produce cost models and architecture recommendations that help client IT teams make informed platform decisions based on measured data, not vendor pitches. Compare deployment options — local, Azure Government, and AWS GovCloud — on cost, performance, and compliance, and explain the trade-offs clearly. Practice Building & Delivery Serve as Data-Sleek's go-to engineer for AI deployments across defense and aerospace clients. Build a reusable capability — a repeatable AI-solutions practice — rather than executing a single one-off project. What You Bring Required U.S. Citizen: U.S. citizenship is required and non-negotiable due to ITAR and client security and compliance requirements. Production LLM deployment: You have stood up inference infrastructure — not just called an API. You've handled model loading, memory constraints, failure modes, and throughput tuning in a real deployment. Local inference: Ollama, vLLM, llama.cpp, LM Studio, or TGI. You've served open-source models (Gemma, Llama, Mistral) on local hardware. Cloud AI platforms: Azure OpenAI or AWS Bedrock — at least one. Service configuration, model access, authentication, and token-based pricing. Python: Pipeline engineering — document parsing (DOCX, PDF, XLSX), API integrations, embedding generation, and database operations (SQLite, Postgres). Experience: 5+ years post-degree in software engineering, data engineering, or ML engineering. Strong Preferences Microsoft ecosystem: Entra ID, Microsoft Graph API, and SharePoint REST API at the API level. GCC High experience is a bonus. MCP (Model Context Protocol): Experience building or consuming MCP servers — a significant plus for a fast-evolving protocol. Workflow orchestration: n8n, Temporal, Airflow, or similar. The pipeline is orchestrated, not scripted. Government cloud awareness: Understanding of what FedRAMP High, IL4/IL5, and ITAR mean for cloud architecture decisions. Embeddings & vector similarity: sentence-transformers, pgvector, Qdrant, or FAISS for duplicate detection. 
Bonus (valued if present) Aerospace or defense experience: Familiarity with ECOs, BOMs, and AS9100 saves ramp time. Apple Silicon optimization: MLX, Metal acceleration, and Ollama tuning on M-series chips. Agentic frameworks: Bedrock AgentCore or Azure AI Foundry — the future direction involves agentic AI workflows on government cloud. What This Role Is Not Model training or fine-tuning. This is deployment engineering, not research. Data science or statistical modeling. The AI here is document understanding and classification, not predictive analytics. Frontend development. The deliverable is an Excel catalog and a report, not a web app. Sales or client acquisition. Data-Sleek's leadership manages the client relationship; you focus on delivery. Engagement & Compensation Remote, US-based. Occasional on-site travel to client facilities for hardware deployment and workshops may be needed. An average of 2–3 trips for the first engagement may be possible. Compensation. $40-$55/hour Why Join Data-Sleek? At Data-Sleek, you'll lead AI deployments in environments most engineers never touch — government cloud and on-premise systems where commercial tools simply aren't an option. Your work will directly shape how defense and aerospace clients adopt AI, and you'll build a reusable capability the company grows around. We focus on doing the right thing architecturally rather than selling the most expensive option, and we give our engineers the autonomy to deliver real solutions for real constraints. How to Apply If you've shipped real LLM deployments with real constraints, we'd like to hear from you. Please submit: Your resume A brief note describing one LLM deployment you've shipped — what model, what infrastructure, what data source, and what went wrong. Data-Sleek® is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all contractors.

We've been building our platform for the past year and have a solid, web app up and running. We’ve built a health ecosystem where users can track labs, sync their wearables, and order medications—managing everything from one place with seamlessly shared data across decisions. Now, we need a Product Designer to join us. Someone who will actually listen to our users, understand why they signed up, and dig deep into their pain points. Someone who understands health tech/labs/longevity We want to completely avoid generic AI slop; this needs to feel personal, human, and visually beautiful. We’re not looking for someone to just polish buttons. We need a Product Designer who will craft a unique identity and build a design system that makes our users feel genuinely understood.

I’m building Elevyn, a platform designed to help people better understand themselves through connected data, intentional reflection, and AI-generated insights. This is not a social media platform. This is not a productivity app. This is not just another trading journal. Elevyn is an operating system for self-mastery, with trading serving as the first environment where personal growth becomes measurable. Most apps collect data. Elevyn is designed to observe. The goal is to connect information across different areas of a person’s life and uncover meaningful patterns that help them improve their decision-making, habits, discipline, and overall performance. The Vision Users will log information such as: • Sleep • Mood • Daily reflections • Workouts • Morning routines • Trading activity • Goals • Habits • Personal notes Instead of simply displaying this data, Elevyn will analyze relationships between it and surface meaningful insights. Examples include: • “You slept less than 5 hours before 7 of your last 10 losing trades.” • “Your win rate increases after completing your morning routine.” • “You tend to become more impulsive after multiple winning days.” • “Your consistency improves when workouts and journaling happen on the same day.” The long-term vision is an intelligent system that continuously helps users become more self-aware. Current Stage I already have: • Brand identity • Vision and philosophy • User flows • Interactive prototype • Core feature planning • Long-term roadmap I’m now looking for a developer or small team (2-3 people) to build the first production version. What I’m Looking For I’m looking for someone who can think beyond simply building screens. I want someone who can: • Build scalable architecture • Recommend the best technologies • Think through user experience • Ask thoughtful questions • Help solve technical challenges • Build for future AI integrations • Create clean, maintainable code Experience with AI, analytics, mobile applications, and scalable backend systems is a significant advantage. Technology (Open to Recommendations) I’m open to your recommendations, but I’m considering: • Flutter or React Native • Node.js or Python backend • PostgreSQL • Firebase/Supabase • AWS • AI integrations (OpenAI or similar) • Secure authentication and cloud infrastructure Long-Term Vision Trading is only the beginning. The underlying engine should eventually support entrepreneurs, athletes, creators, students, and anyone pursuing mastery in a specific area of life. The core idea remains the same: Help people understand themselves by connecting patterns across their behaviors, decisions, and outcomes. Who I’m Looking For I’m looking for someone who believes in building meaningful products—not just completing tasks. If you’re excited about creating a platform that combines psychology, data, AI, and personal development into something people genuinely use to improve their lives, I’d love to hear from you. Please include examples of similar work, your recommended tech stack, and how you would approach building a scalable MVP that can grow over time.

I need a developer to build an AI visibility audit tool for destination marketing. The core logic is already defined and I have a full spec. I need someone who can build it clean and ship it. What the tool does: it queries ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude and Perplexity with a fixed set of real traveler questions, captures whether a destination shows up and where its competitors land, scores the result, and drafts a short report. Roughly 15+ questions, each run a few times per platform, with web search enabled. What I need built: The query engine across all three platforms, running on my own API keys Integration with my existing scorecard backend A gated flow: a personal emailed link that runs once per user, results delivered by email A saved-run database I can log into and review, so every run is stored from day one Built to be re-run on a schedule later (this becomes an ongoing monitoring product) Two non-negotiables: It runs entirely on my API accounts and keys. Billing and ownership sit with me. I own all code and IP outright. This is a defined, finish-and-ship project, not open-ended. I'll share the full spec with candidates who look like a fit. US-based candidates only. Skills LLM / OpenAI API, Gemini API, Perplexity API, API integration, Python (or your stack — tell me), backend development, database design, prompt engineering If interested, please respond with the following answers to be taken seriously: Describe a tool you've built that calls LLM APIs in production. What did it do and what was your specific role? How would you handle the fact that AI answers vary run to run? How do you make a score that holds up to scrutiny? What's your approach to keeping per-query API costs controlled at volume? Rough estimate on timeline and cost for a project scoped like this.
