AI Product Engineer

About Casper Studios

We’re an AI services firm that helps companies figure out where and how to use AI. We’ve built Casper Studios to roughly 45 people, worked with 30+ clients, and done deals with some of the largest companies, PE funds, and model providers.

It all comes down to how we work with clients. Before we build anything, we listen, understand the business, and help them figure out the highest-leverage way to get started on their AI journey.

About the Role

We're looking for engineers in the Philippines who are AI-native, have real fundamentals in programming, data, and systems, and have the judgment to get the most out of LLMs - and know where they break. The work spans enterprise document processing, workflow automation, computer vision, and financial research tooling, across finance, healthcare, and enterprise clients.

This is a role for someone who ships, owns outcomes, and wants unusual amounts of responsibility early.

What You’ll Do

• Own AI product builds end to end, from concept through production, on a client engagement

• Decide what to build and how: gather requirements, pressure-test what stakeholders ask for, and prioritize the work that matters

• Prototype fast with LLMs, then harden into production with the data pipelines, integrations, and evals that make it trustworthy

• Do the data engineering enterprise work requires: ingestion, data modeling, and ETL

• Serve as the primary technical contact for clients - talk shop with their engineers and give their executives clarity

• Instrument what you build (analytics, funnel metrics, error analysis) and iterate on real usage, not assumptions

• Own reliability, security, and cost: auth, secrets, PII handling, and not blowing up the cloud bill

• Write up what you learn; for the team, for clients, and publicly

What You’ll Bring

• Strong engineering fundamentals: programming, debugging, and system design. You think well beyond the happy path.

• You've shipped something real with an LLM that got actual usage - ideally with error analysis and evals on your outputs

• Data engineering: data modeling and architecture, plus ETL/pipeline experience (Airflow, Dagster, Inngest, Prefect, or similar)

• Web and infra fundamentals: auth and web security, profiling slow queries (N+1, unnecessary joins), CI/CD, and cost-aware deployment on a major cloud
