Artefact is a next-generation data and AI consulting firm dedicated to accelerating the adoption of data and AI to create measurable business impact across the full enterprise value chain. We sit at the intersection of consulting, data science, AI technologies, data engineering, and digital transformation. We do not just advise — we build, implement, and deliver results our clients can measure. Our teams bring together consultants, data scientists, data engineers, AI engineers, analysts, and digital experts to solve complex business challenges with pragmatic, production-ready solutions. As Artefact continues to grow globally, we are building a team of entrepreneurial data and AI talent who can help clients move beyond experimentation and into scalable, governed, value-generating AI adoption. The Role Artefact is looking for a Senior AI & Agentic Engineer: a full-stack engineer who takes AI features from idea to production. You will design and build the interfaces, services, and agentic systems at the heart of our client work, such as conversational applications over enterprise data, multi-step agents that automate business workflows, and the retrieval and data pipelines that support them. You will own your components end to end: the React front end, the Python or Node service behind it, the RAG pipeline feeding it, and the evaluations proving it works. This role combines breadth and depth: the ability to take a feature from front end to cloud deployment, together with strong expertise in at least one major AI platform — Google (Gemini), Anthropic (Claude), or OpenAI. You will work with direct client exposure, and you will support the professional development of the junior engineers around you. What You'll Do Build Full-Stack AI Applications, End to End You will build AI products across the entire stack, from interface to infrastructure.

Overview We are seeking a hands-on Director of AI Software Engineering to lead and scale AI engineering efforts supporting multiple business units across Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC). This role sits at the intersection of product delivery, platform evolution, and applied AI—driving real-world impact across core workflows. This is not a pure management role.

About Scale AI At Scale, our mission is to develop reliable AI systems for the world's most important decisions. Our products provide the high-quality data and full-stack technologies that power the world's leading models, and help enterprises and governments build, deploy, and oversee AI applications that deliver real impact. Scale Frontier Data is the organization behind the training and evaluation data that frontier labs depend on. We build the systems, tooling, and expert workflows that turn hard human expertise into signals that models can learn from, across reasoning, coding, agentic tool use, and domain expertise. Reinforcement learning environments are now the center of gravity for that work: the difference between a model that demos well and a model that reliably completes long-horizon work is almost always the quality of the environments and reward signals it was trained against. Responsibilities As a Staff Software Engineer, RL Environments, you'll own the technical foundation for how Scale builds, runs, verifies, and delivers RL environments at scale. An RL environment is a real piece of software: a containerized world with real dependencies, real state, real tools, and a grader that has to be correct even when the agent is creative about breaking it. Building one is a full-stack engineering problem. Building thousands of them reproducibly, cheaply, with trustworthy reward signals and throughput measured in millions of rollouts is a systems problem that very few people have solved. You'll work on both. You'll design the platform: sandboxed execution, environment packaging and versioning, rollout orchestration, trajectory capture, verifier frameworks, and the authoring surfaces that let engineers and domain experts produce environments without reinventing infrastructure each time. And you'll go deep on the environments themselves by instrumenting real applications, designing task suites that expose specific capability gaps, and building graders that
