• Partner with enterprise stakeholders to identify business bottlenecks, map technical requirements, define high-impact AI use cases, and develop clear business and technical narratives. 

• Implement and optimize local AI environments on NVIDIA GB10 and Apple Silicon systems, addressing privacy, latency, cost, system dependencies, and secure data-handling needs. 

• Build functional AI prototypes, including command-line tools, function-calling solutions, and foundational agentic workflows, to demonstrate value and support executive buy-in. 

• Configure and troubleshoot Linux environments, local models, webhooks, REST APIs, networking components, and client integrations while coaching internal champions through AI adoption. 

What we’re looking for 

• Working familiarity with running local models on NVIDIA GB10 (Grace Blackwell / CUDA) and Apple Silicon (unified memory / MLX) hardware, alongside developer tools (e.g., Ollama, vLLM, LM Studio). 

• Understanding of core LLM mechanics, prompt design, API/Console usage, tool integration, and foundational agent patterns. 

• Comfortable navigating Linux terminal environments, writing Bash/Python automation scripts, and managing system dependencies/environments. 

• Solid understanding of TCP/IP, DNS, RESTful APIs, webhooks, local port forwarding, and secure network traffic basics. 

• Exceptional capacity for rapid self-directed learning and a curiosity to explore expanding AI frameworks.
