The arrival of capable foundation models changed the job. Today, many AI features start with a pre-trained LLM, and the engineering work shifts to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Connecting models to data<\/strong>, so answers are grounded in a company&#8217;s own documents and systems.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Building agents<\/strong> that can call tools, query databases and complete multi-step tasks.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Evaluating and controlling output<\/strong>, because LLMs can produce confident but wrong answers (hallucinations).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Managing cost and compliance<\/strong>, since every model call costs money and may involve personal data.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Types of AI Engineers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><th>Specialisation<\/th><th>Focus<\/th><\/tr><tr><td>GenAI \/ LLM Engineer<\/td><td>Applications built on large language models<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.freelancermap.com\/blog\/what-does-ai-agent-developer-do\/\">AI Agent Developer<\/a><\/td><td>Autonomous workflows that use tools and APIs<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.freelancermap.com\/blog\/what-does-machine-learning-engineer-do\">ML \/ MLOps Engineer<\/a><\/td><td>Training, deploying and monitoring models<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Computer Vision Engineer<\/td><td>Image and video models<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.freelancermap.com\/blog\/what-does-nlp-engineer-do\">NLP Engineer<\/a><\/td><td>Text classification, extraction, translation<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"Responsibilities\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Responsibilities and tasks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The exact tasks depend on the company and project, but most AI Engineers cover these eight responsibilities:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Translate business problems into AI solutions:<\/strong> work with product owners and domain experts to define what AI should and should not do.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Build AI features with LLMs:<\/strong> chatbots, document search, summarisation and agents using RAG and function calling.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Prepare data for AI systems:<\/strong> clean, chunk and embed documents; build pipelines that keep data current.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Select, fine-tune or train models:<\/strong> choose between hosted LLMs, open-source models and custom ML models for each task.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Deploy models as services:<\/strong> wrap models in APIs and integrate them into existing applications.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Evaluate quality and safety:<\/strong> build automated tests (evals) for accuracy, hallucinations, bias and harmful output.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Monitor and optimise in production:<\/strong> track latency, cost per request, model drift and user feedback.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Ensure security and compliance:<\/strong> protect personal data, manage access and meet GDPR and EU AI Act requirements.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What tasks does an AI Engineer do? <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As AI Engineering is a very large field, there are a number of different tasks that an AI Engineer can do.

However, there are many <strong>misconceptions, due to all this terminology related to humans skills<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All these words like reasoning, understanding, neural networks, and intelligence, are bad misnomers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is software and a small set of high-school-level math ideas put together that can shine in lots of tasks but firstly you will need to have those tasks digitized. In the projects that I collaborate on, around 70% of the time is spent gathering and organizing data before even beginning to solve the actual problem at hand.<br>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>Around 70% of the time is spent gathering and organizing data before even beginning to solve the actual problem at hand.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What advice would you give to those aspiring to become AI engineers?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Artificial Intelligence per se doesn&#8217;t exist. It is a general term that includes lots of different disciplines:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Computer vision<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Natural language processing<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Machine learning<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Knowledge management<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Planning and reasoning<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I suggest you decide if you prefer working with images or text and from this decision start picking areas that you love: social media, nature, marketing, sports&#8230; there is an application for AI everywhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you have it just google for use cases, projects solved etc. Google and Amazon have dozens of actual implementations. You can check <a href=\"https:\/\/ai.google\/research\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Google AI research<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From there, start going deeper into the concepts that you don&#8217;t understand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I strongly recommed you to move to <strong>Python<\/strong> and <strong>Docker<\/strong> but especially to have <strong>Ubuntu<\/strong> on your computer as it will help you go faster without being distracted with software versioning incompatibilities (as there are many nowadays).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AI experts are willing to talk about their work so don&#8217;t hesitate to ask them and <strong>participate in forums, your local AI communities, talk to colleagues<\/strong>, etc&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How will AI change web development and workplaces in the future?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Machine learning is about finding patterns<\/strong> and we all know that all the jobs have a degree of routine and all tasks some implicit repetition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AI can work with that and help humans be <strong>more effective and productive<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">More specifically, in web development I see lots of space for improvements in auto-completion suggestions, image processing, users&#8217; content approval (for example in a web that sells second-hand products), tackling spam bots (in reviews for example), segmenting and understanding your audience or first line of customer support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>In a few years time, Artificial Intelligence will have the potential to change how we build software.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you are able to collect enough data about the problem you are solving, the deep learning architectures can build their own features and solve the problems without having to take into account all the previous requirements, use cases or unexpected tasks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We all know that customers and requirements are not a perfect symbiosis so, it can facilitate web programming a lot and increase the velocity of development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is Artificial Intelligence Engineer a remote-friendly role? Is it ok for freelancers?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nowadays, AI is still a novel thing. It is an innovation with an incredible technological update rate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Big IT companies (Google, Microsoft, IBM, Amazon) are working very hard in offering new solutions and tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are no good or bad solutions and AI practitioners need to <strong>do a lot of research<\/strong> before starting to solve their clients&#8217; problems. It is not a mature technology and most of the projects are new, non-deterministic and very dynamic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That is why I think <strong>freelancers and remote workers are good candidates to offer great solutions<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They need research time and peaceful environments to achieve great solutions and have successful AI projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button aligncenter\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.freelancermap.com\/profile\/juan-luis-rosa\">Get Juan on to your project<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Other interesting profiles<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"su-posts su-posts-list-loop \">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<li id=\"su-post-40308\" class=\"su-post \">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.freelancermap.com\/blog\/what-does-deep-learning-engineer-do\/\">What Does A Deep Learning Engineer Do?<\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/li>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<li id=\"su-post-32345\" class=\"su-post \">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.freelancermap.com\/blog\/what-does-ethical-hacker-do\/\">What Does An Ethical Hacker Do?<\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/li>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<li id=\"su-post-20762\" class=\"su-post \">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.freelancermap.com\/blog\/what-does-soc-analyst-do\/\">What does a SOC analyst do?<\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/li>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<li id=\"su-post-32574\" class=\"su-post \">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.freelancermap.com\/blog\/what-does-data-quality-manager-do\/\">What Does A Data Quality Manager Do?<\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/li>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<li id=\"su-post-29228\" class=\"su-post \">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.freelancermap.com\/blog\/what-does-inventory-analyst-do\/\">What Does An Inventory Analyst Do?<\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/li>\n\n\t\t\t\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"> \u00bb\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.freelancermap.com\/blog\/freelance-job-profiles-it-roles\/#job-profiles-data-science-analysis\">More job profiles in Data Science &amp; Analysis<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AI Engineer is still kind of a new role within the IT sector.
