Senior AI Engineer — Document Intelligence

About the company

Tracium builds AI-assisted technical documentation software that turns complex manuals and engineering documents into structured, traceable information. Our initial focus is maritime, with applications across manufacturing, aerospace, and defence.

We combine document intelligence with S1000D authoring to help technical teams extract maintenance information, create documentation, and verify AI-generated suggestions against their sources.

Your tasks

You will own the AI capabilities behind our document intelligence platform—from understanding complex PDFs to extracting information that engineers can review and use.

• Build pipelines for document parsing, OCR, layout understanding, and extraction from text, tables, and diagrams.
• Develop retrieval and AI workflows for technical question answering and maintenance information extraction.
• Design structured outputs with validation and references to source documents.
• Build evaluation datasets and measure extraction accuracy, retrieval quality, and unsupported outputs.
• Improve model performance, processing speed, and cost across cloud and private deployments.
• Work with product and engineering colleagues to bring prototypes into production.

Requirements

• Experience delivering AI or machine learning systems into production.
• Strong Python and software engineering skills.
• Practical experience with LLMs, structured extraction, retrieval, and evaluation.
• An understanding of document processing challenges, including imperfect scans and complex layouts.
• The ability to investigate failures systematically and make clear technical trade-offs.
• Clear communication in English.

• Technical manuals, industrial documentation
• Multimodal models, open-source model deployment, or GPU inference.
• Private, on-premises, or restricted-network environments.

What we offer

Help shape the core AI architecture of an early-stage product, work directly with the founders, and solve document problems with clear operational value.
