Job Description

As Principal AI Engineer, you will lead the technical design and development of AI agent systems and LLM-powered capabilities. You’ll operate at the intersection of applied research, systems design, and strategic customer engagement. While your day job includes architecting scalable, production-ready AI components, your role also spans into guiding enterprise customers—serving as a thought leader in pre-sales, executive briefings, and AI strategy workshops. 

Key Responsibilities: 

Technical Leadership 

  • Architect and implement advanced AI agent frameworks using LLMs (e.g. GPT, Claude, open-weight models). 

  • Design end-to-end systems and solutions that integrate planning, memory, retrieval, and tool usage within AI agents. 

  • Lead model evaluation, prompt engineering, fine-tuning, and RLHF efforts where necessary. 

  • Collaborate with product and engineering teams to translate AI capabilities into platform features. 

Customer & Pre-Sales Engagement 

  • Partner with Sales, Product, and GTM to articulate AI strategy and solution architecture to enterprise clients. 

  • Participate in pre-sales meetings, technical deep-dives, and AI innovation workshops with C-level stakeholders. 

  • Translate customer needs into solution blueprints involving agents, LLMs, and AI workflows. 

  • Represent the company in conferences, webinars, and thought-leadership forums as an AI expert. 

Requirements: 

Must-Have 

  • PhD in Computer Science, Machine Learning, NLP, or related field. 

  • 5+ years of industry experience in AI/ML, with at least 2 years focused on LLMs and/or AI agents. 

  • Strong programming skills in Python and experience with frameworks such as LangChain, Transformers, Ray, or similar. 

  • Experience building production systems using LLMs (RAG, agentic workflows, orchestration, tool use, etc). 

  • Exceptional communication skills and a proven ability to present complex ideas to technical and non-technical audiences. 

  • Experience in client-facing roles or pre-sales technical advisory. 

Nice-to-Have 

  • Experience with enterprise AI deployment (e.g., compliance, privacy, scalability). 

  • Publications or public talks in AI, NLP, or agentic systems. 

  • Contributions to open-source LLM/agentic frameworks. 

We focus on our mission: Sprinklr was founded in 2009 to solve a big problem: growing enterprise complexity that separated brands from their customers. Our vision was clear: to unify fragmented teams, tools and data — helping large organizations build deeper, more meaningful connections with the people they serve. Today, Sprinklr has a unified, AI-native platform for four product suites: Sprinklr Service, Sprinklr Social, Sprinklr Marketing, and Sprinklr Insights. Sprinklr is here to do three things: 

  • Lead a new category of enterprise software that we call Unified-CXM. 

  • Empower companies to deliver next generation, unified engagement journeys that reimagine the customer experience. 

  • Create a culture of customer obsession, with trust, teamwork, and accountability.

We believe in our product: Customers who value exceptional customer experiences have what they need on our single unified platform, built with an operating system approach on a single codebase. That means that everything — and everyone — can work together to service, respond, sell, and market to customers on the channels they prefer. While Unified Customer Experience Management (Unified-CXM) as a category is just getting started, we are well on our way to creating a no-compromise, unified approach to better customer experiences for the world’s leading enterprise brands. 

 

We invest in our people: We offer a comprehensive suite of benefits designed to help each member of our team thrive. Sprinklr believes that you should be able to get the type of care you need for your personal well-being when you need it. We offer you and your family voluntary healthcare coverage in countries where applicable. We believe it is important to take time off – it is essential for your mental and physical wellbeing. We provide Sprinklrites with paid time off to recharge and spend time with loved ones. We want to grow our talent with purpose. Our open Mentoring Program is designed to create meaningful connections that support growth and amplify our focus.
