See how it works ->This work prices with the AI/ML family. A mid-level AI engineer in the United States sits around $12,500 per month (2026 salary table). LLM engineers with Teilur start at $5,150 all-in.
They work the layer between a general model and your specific problem: retrieval over your documents, prompt and context engineering, fine-tuning when it is genuinely warranted, evaluation harnesses that measure quality instead of guessing at it, and the token economics that decide whether a feature is viable at scale.
Anyone can make a language model produce something. The engineers worth hiring can tell you whether the output got better after a change, and prove it. Without that, teams ship prompt edits on intuition and discover regressions from customer complaints.
A strong LLM engineer will often talk you out of fine-tuning, because better retrieval or a clearer prompt solves the problem at a fraction of the cost. We screen for that judgment, not just the technique.
This discipline is barely three years old. There is no established seniority ladder anywhere, which means engineers in LATAM started when everyone else did, and the salary premium US companies now pay for this skill has not reached the region.
Every engineer is evaluated for English before you see a profile.
