AI / LLM Developer Needed – Confidential AI Copilot Project

Project Overview I am looking for an experienced AI / LLM Developer or Full-Stack AI Engineer to help me build an AI-powered Copilot from the ground up. The project is currently at the concept / early development stage. I am looking for someone who can not only code, but also help translate the concept into a solid technical architecture and a functional MVP. The project involves LLMs, conversational AI, memory/context, document processing, AI tools and potentially AI agents. Due to the confidential nature of the project, detailed specifications will only be shared after a confidentiality agreement (NDA) has been signed. What I am looking for Ideally, you have experience with: * OpenAI or other LLM APIs * Python * AI agents / agentic workflows * RAG and vector databases * Prompt engineering * Conversation memory and context management * API integration * Backend development * Database architecture * Authentication and security * Web application development * Deployment and cloud infrastructure Experience building AI assistants, Copilots, SaaS products or similar systems is highly appreciated. Responsibilities You would initially help me: 1. Understand and structure the concept. 2. Define the technical architecture. 3. Identify the technologies and APIs required. 4. Build an initial proof of concept. 5. Develop the MVP. 6. Integrate the AI model and required tools. 7. Build the backend and database. 8. Develop the user interface. 9. Test, document and deploy the application. I am looking for someone who can think with me, not simply execute isolated coding tasks. Confidentiality & Intellectual Property This is a confidential project. A mutual NDA / confidentiality agreement will be required before I provide detailed information about the concept, business model, specifications or proprietary features. All project-specific source code, documentation, architecture and deliverables must be clearly assigned to the client under the development agreement. Please do not apply if you are not comfortable working under a confidentiality and intellectual-property agreement. What I would like to see in your application Please provide: * A short introduction * Your experience with LLM / AI projects * 2–3 relevant projects you have built * Your preferred technology stack * Links to your GitHub / portfolio if available * Your hourly rate or estimated project budget * Your availability * Your estimated timeline for building an initial MVP Please do not ask for detailed information about the concept before the NDA stage. I am particularly interested in developers who are technically strong, proactive, reliable and interested in potentially working on the project beyond the initial prototype. Please start your proposal with the word “COPILOT” so I know you have read the full description.
