What Does a Generative AI Engineer Build?

Most companies do not train their own models. They hire generative AI engineers to connect existing LLMs to their own data and systems. The work includes:

  1. Designing prompts that return reliable, structured answers
  2. Building RAG pipelines over company documents
  3. Creating AI agents that call tools and APIs
  4. Serving AI features through an API
  5. Measuring answer quality, cost and response time

Generative AI Concepts You Will Learn

The ideas behind every LLM application, explained simply and then put to work in the modules.

Large language model LLM
A model trained on large amounts of text that can write, summarise and answer questions.
Prompt engineering
Writing clear instructions and examples so a model gives reliable, well-formatted output.
Embeddings
Lists of numbers that capture the meaning of text, so similar content can be found quickly.
Vector database
A store for embeddings that returns the most relevant chunks of text in milliseconds.
Retrieval-augmented generation RAG
Adding retrieved documents to a prompt so answers stay grounded in real, current data.
AI agent
A program where the model plans steps and calls tools or APIs to finish a task.
