Why build AI at Verizon?Most early-career AI roles keep builders stuck on isolated prototypes, internal chatbots, or low-stakes demos that never make it past a proof-of-concept. In Verizon's Marketing Technology Group, you'll build production-grade agentic AI systems that directly power how a $130B+ enterprise sells, serves, and operates. Working alongside senior AI engineers and product owners, you'll design and deploy multi-agent workflows, RAG pipelines, and tool-integrated LLMs using modern stacks (LangGraph, Google ADK, MCP) that elevate sales productivity and service operations for thousands of employees and millions of customers. Backed by Verizon's multi-year investment to industrialize AI-and deep partnerships with hyperscalers like Google Cloud and AWS-this is your opportunity to master production guardrails, latency optimization, and real-world agent orchestration while accelerating your growth as an AI engineer.
What you'll be doing...
You will help drive profitable growth and business innovation by building Generative AI and Agentic AI solutions for Verizon Business Group.
