New AI Engineer postings at the employers we follow are up 134% over the last 6 weeks compared with the 6 before.

We file this job under AI Engineer, by the work the posting describes.
AI engineers build products on top of AI models that already exist, most often large language models: they connect a model to a company's data and tools and ship the assistants, agents and search features people use.
Postings ask for strong Python or TypeScript, experience with model APIs, retrieval and agent frameworks, and ways to test whether the model's answers are good enough.
An ML engineer trains and serves models; an AI engineer usually starts from a model someone else trained and builds the product around it, though titles often mix the two.
