# Junior AI Developer (Claude + Python, On-Site)

> United Placement Group · Bradenton, United States · Contract · Posted 2026-02-23

**Workplace:** on_site

**Department:** Technology Services

## Description

**About Us**  
We are building a small, fast-moving team focused on practical AI agents that actually help people get real work done. You’ll work at the intersection of **Claude**, Python, and modern design—helping us create and integrate AI agents into internal tools, customer-facing experiences, and creative workflows. This is an **in-house, on-site** role, ideal for someone who has started experimenting with LLMs and wants to grow into a strong applied AI/LLM engineer in a collaborative team setting.

**Role Summary**  
As a Junior AI Developer, you will help build and refine AI agents powered by Claude, integrate them with Python back-ends and third-party APIs, and support collaboration with our design team. You’ll work closely with more senior engineers, but you’ll also own small features end-to-end—from prototype to production.

### Responsibilities

-   Implement and maintain Claude-powered workflows and agents using Python.
-   Call LLM APIs (Claude and others), parse responses, and integrate them into internal tools or web applications.
-   Collaborate with senior engineers to connect agents to external tools, REST APIs, databases, and other services.
-   Help with prompt design and iteration: test different prompts, contexts, and settings to improve reliability and output quality.
-   Assist in building simple context-augmented/RAG-style workflows (e.g., feeding documents or data into LLMs in a controlled way).
-   Write clean, readable Python code with basic tests, logging, and error handling.
-   Work closely with designers and non-technical stakeholders to turn ideas into AI-powered features and tools.

### Requirements

-   1–2+ years of programming experience (professional, internship, or strong project work), with solid **Python** skills.
-   Some hands-on experience with large language models (Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, etc.), either through projects, coursework, or personal experimentation.
-   Basic experience calling web APIs (REST/JSON) and handling JSON data in Python.
-   Familiarity with core LLM concepts: prompts, tokens, context windows, and common issues like hallucinations.
-   Comfort using Git and working in a collaborative development environment.
-   Strong desire to learn, experiment, and improve; clear communication and willingness to ask questions.
-   Ability and willingness to work **on-site full time** at our office location.

### Nice to Have

-   Direct experience with **Claude** (Claude API, Anthropic console, or Claude Skills).
-   Projects involving chatbots, assistants, AI agents, or workflow automation.
-   Exposure to web frameworks (FastAPI, Flask, or a front-end framework like React/Next.js).
-   Experience working with or supporting graphic designers, content teams, or UX designers.
-   Basic understanding of vector databases, embeddings, or RAG-style systems (not required, but a plus).

### What We Offer

-   **Full-time, on-site position** with **weekly pay**.
-   Competitive compensation package with **benefits** (health, PTO, etc. – customize as needed).
-   A **collaborative environment** that encourages growth, shared ideas, and cross-functional learning.
-   Direct mentorship from more experienced AI/LLM engineers on real-world projects.
-   The opportunity to work hands-on with the latest LLM tools and workflows in a supportive team setting.

**How to Apply**  
Please send your resume, a brief introduction, and links to any relevant projects (GitHub, portfolio, or demos). If you’ve built anything with LLMs—even small experiments—please highlight those; we’re excited to see how you think and build.
