Vetted AI Engineers, Enterprise & Startup Experience, Live in 48–72 Hours

Lucent provides more than a shortlist of profiles. When you hire AI engineers from us, you gain in-house specialists supported by proven delivery processes, secure collaboration and the wider expertise needed to move AI from experimentation into production.
Share your requirements and review vetted AI engineer profiles within 48 hours, matched by technical skills, experience and availability.
Assess your selected engineer's technical ability, communication and compatibility with your team for seven days before continuing the engagement.
As a Certified Databricks Partner, we understand how to connect AI development with governed data, reliable evaluation and production deployment.
Our expert AI developers can work within your tools, workflows and sprint cycles, with support from ML, data engineering and MLOps specialists as requirements grow.
Every engagement is backed by 12+ years of engineering experience and delivery knowledge developed across 250+ enterprise clients.
You retain ownership of the source code and project IP, supported by secure access practices, documented handover and knowledge transfer from the beginning.
Model choice is an engineering decision, not a preference. We benchmark against your data, cost ceiling and privacy constraints.
Build the right team around your use case, from one specialist to a cross-functional pod. Hire AI developers with production experience across model development, enterprise data, deployment and ongoing monitoring.
Build predictive models, recommendation engines and anomaly-detection systems using your operational data to support more consistent planning and decision-making.
Engineers skilled in production LLM systems, prompt engineering, fine-tuning and frameworks such as LangChain and LangGraph. They manage model selection, evaluation, security and cost optimization.
Create document-processing systems that classify content, extract key information and summarize contracts, tickets or transcripts to reduce manual review.
Deploy OCR, object detection and quality-inspection solutions in the cloud or at the edge to automate visual checks and process images at scale.
Turn fragmented data into forecasts, customer segments, fraud indicators and decision models that business teams can use in daily operations.
Automate model training, deployment, monitoring and drift detection with MLflow and Databricks workflows to keep AI systems reliable after launch.
Our engineers select technologies based on the model, data, security and deployment requirements of each project, not to force every solution into the same stack.
Choose an engagement based on your scope, internal capabilities and preferred level of delivery ownership. Hire dedicated AI developers, commission a defined project or access specialist expertise for a specific technical challenge.
Add an AI developer or dedicated team to your existing setup. They work within your tools, stand-ups and sprint cycles while you control priorities and scale the team as needed.
$45–65/hr
Best for defined outcomes with agreed scope, milestones and deliverables. Lucent manages discovery, development, testing and handover while you retain ownership of the code and project IP.
From $12,000 / Project
Access AI expertise for technical evaluations, architecture reviews, audits, development spikes or proofs of concept without a long-term commitment.
$35–65/hr
Combine a dedicated core team with part-time MLOps, computer vision or data engineering specialists to access deeper expertise when required.
Custom, blended rates
Provide the business problem, required skills, current data and systems, expected timeline and time-zone needs. An NDA can be signed before sensitive technical details are shared.
A solution architect reviews the scope and identifies the right role or team structure. Receive vetted profiles within 48 hours, interview the shortlisted engineers and select the best fit.
Finalize the engagement, access requirements and communication process. Begin the 7-day risk-free trial, followed by planned sprints, weekly progress updates and delivery reviews.
Our AI developers cover the complete delivery path from validating a use case to building, integrating and maintaining AI systems your team can operate confidently.
Build applications with AI embedded into core business workflows to support faster decisions, personalization and intelligent user experiences.
Develop forecasting, scoring, recommendation and anomaly-detection models using your data to improve planning and operational decisions.
Process documents, tickets and conversations through classification, entity extraction, sentiment analysis and semantic search.
Automate visual tasks with OCR, object detection, defect inspection and image or video analysis pipelines.
Create RAG-grounded assistants with source citations, escalation paths and human review for customer or internal support.
Connect GPT, Claude, Gemini, Llama or custom models with existing ERP, CRM, commerce and internal systems, followed by monitoring and optimization.
Develop agentic workflows that complete approved multi-step tasks while maintaining permissions, human checkpoints and auditable activity.
Assess data readiness, prioritize viable use cases and define build-versus-buy roadmaps before committing resources to development.
A fast-growing meal-kit and grocery subscription company faced rising Snowflake costs, slow batch-based personalization, fragmented machine learning workflows, and limited visibility across its data systems.
Our team migrated the company to a Databricks Lakehouse using a phased approach. We unified batch and streaming data, moved machine learning workflows to MLflow, and introduced Unity Catalog for centralized governance without disrupting analytics operations.

Our AI developers work within your approved cloud and development environments, using least-privilege access, centralized secrets management and separate development, evaluation and production environments. NDA, data-handling, audit logging and IP requirements are documented before onboarding to align delivery with your security policies and applicable compliance controls.
Tell us what you're trying to ship. You'll get matched AI engineer profiles within 48 hours and a 7-day risk-free trial before you commit to anything.
