Hire an AI Engineer who has shipped systems users actually use.

Most AI engineers build demos. Few have run a production AI system long enough to know what breaks at month six. Our AI bench includes engineers who built the AI engine behind Microvest's live Bitcoin investment platform and the LLM-embedded data pipelines inside Clust. The difference between a notebook and a production system is operational rigour — and that is what we hire for.

Engagement
Monthly retainer · 30-day notice
Time zone
Pakistan · 4–5hr US overlap, full EMEA
Time to start
1–2 weeks from brief
Replacement
Free within first 30 days
— Why Hire Through AlgoCoder

AI engineers who have survived month six in production.

Production track record in regulated fintech (Microvest) and platform-scale data infrastructure (Clust).

Strong on the unglamorous parts — eval harnesses, prompt versioning, output validation, cost monitoring, drift detection.

Pragmatic about tooling — OpenAI, Anthropic, open-source, self-hosted — picked per use case, not per vendor preference.

Comfortable building privacy-first AI architectures for clients with strong legal and infrastructure boundaries.

— How It Works

From request to engineer-on-keys, fast.

Step 01

Brief Call

A 30-minute call to understand your stack, your problem, and the seniority you actually need (versus what the JD says).

Step 02

Engineer Match

We propose 1–2 engineers from the bench who fit the brief — with portfolio links to real shipped work, not pitch slides.

Step 03

Technical Interview

You interview the engineer directly. Pass or fail is your call. We re-match if needed at no cost.

Step 04

Onboard

Engineer joins your team within 1 week of offer. Monthly retainer, no hidden fees, replacement guaranteed.

— The Proof

Production AI shipped to live users — not pilots, not demos.

Microvest AI Bitcoin engine. AlgoCoder built the AI engine behind Microvest's live Bitcoin investment platform — analyses real-time market data and sentiment signals to power data-backed investment intelligence inside the live custodian system.

Clust LLM-embedded data pipelines. Production-grade language models embedded directly into the data layer for classification, semantic enrichment, unstructured-to-structured conversion, and anomaly detection at platform volume — delivered inside the same operational discipline that runs our blockchain infrastructure.

  • Microvest AI engine — analyses real-time Bitcoin market data and sentiment signals for data-backed investment intelligence.
  • LLMs embedded directly inside Clust's production data pipelines for classification, semantic enrichment, and anomaly detection.
  • Privacy-first AI architectures available for clients with strong data boundaries — self-hosted models, on-prem inference, encrypted pipelines.
  • Production rigour — eval harnesses, prompt versioning, output validation, cost monitoring, drift detection treated as first-class engineering, not afterthoughts.

— Honest Answers

The questions hiring managers actually ask.

How fast can you place an engineer?
Typically 1–2 weeks from brief to start date. Faster if the brief matches an immediately available bench profile.
What is the engagement structure?
Monthly retainer per engineer with a 30-day notice period either side. No long-term lock-ins. No placement fees.
Where are your engineers based?
Pakistan-based with overlapping working hours covering EMEA fully and US East Coast for half the day. Most engagements settle into a 4–5 hour overlap that works for both sides.
Can I hire the engineer permanently later?
Yes. Conversion is straightforward and we do not structure punitive buy-out clauses.
What if the engineer is not a fit?
Replacement at no extra cost within the first 30 days. After that, standard 30-day notice applies.
Do you build privacy-first AI?
Yes — self-hosted open-source models, on-prem inference, and architecture patterns that keep training data and prompts out of third-party logs. We have shipped privacy-sensitive AI inside fintech custodian systems.
