💣 Jobs in AI Engineering are exploding! [TIME-SENSITIVE INVITE]

Don’t miss this chance to quickly & easily cultivate deeper AI engineering expertise

I’ve been doing some pretty in-depth market research over the last week, because - True story, I’m looking for a full-time role.

The epicenter of my expertise is of course: Growth, Data Products & Applied AI.

Since your expertise probably dovetails nicely with at least one of those pillars, I thought I’d share the findings of my LinkedIn market research with you here today.

Before revealing my findings, quick quiz!

Ok, so the number one takeaway from my research is this: 

NEW JOBS ARE BEING CREATED ALMOST OVERNIGHT FOR ANYONE & EVERYONE WHO CAN COVER AI ENGINEERING RESPONSIBILITIES. (very well paid jobs too!)

Data to support my claim:

Job postings on LinkedIn as of August 14, 2023:

• AI Engineer in United States - 5,916 results

• Data Product Manager in United States - 5,440 results

• Growth Product Manager in United States - 856 results

Conclusion, if you’re looking for a hotbed of opportunity right now, you’re gonna want to take a look into what’s happening across the AI engineering space.

What do you need to get an AI Engineer job?

Next questions… What does an AI engineer do, what expertise is required to become an AI Engineer, and how can you cultivate the expertise in short order?

In short form, you can says that an AI Engineer designs and builds AI products. But things have changed since the generative AI explosion, most of this work is being done through one of the many LLM API Stacks, instead of building from scratch. (yay!)

⏰ Join This Free AI Engineering Skill-Building Event Tomorrow

AI developer skills are forecast to be the most highly-demanded skills of the next decade, but - as always - the early bird catches the worm.

Tomorrow, a lovely data startup called SingleStore will be hosting a free live hands-on training session that you can attend to learn more about what’s actually involved in being an AI engineer.

Signing up for this free training is an excellent idea if you’re interested in developing deep AI engineering expertise. (I’ll certainly be joining!)

The training is built specifically for data professionals and developers.

Topic: How to Drive 100x Faster Analytics for Your MongoDB® Apps

Time: Tuesday, August 15 at 10 am PDT, replays available for all who register now.

Join me to learn more about AI engineering as it relates to optimizing MongoDB and to see AI engineering skills being demonstrated in real-time.

Oh, and don’t worry if you can’t join the event live, just sign up for the event now and they’ll send you the event replay afterward.

Cheers,

Lillian

Note: I plan to attend this event myself, for my own learning benefits. That said, SingleStore has agreed to pay me a small fee for creating and publishing this #sponsored content.
