We’re a team that’s focused on growth and innovation, and we’re proud that our crew, products, and leadership are being recognized for it.
- A Top-Tier Growth Company: Named one of the Financial Times’ Fastest Growing Companies 2025 and #10 on the Inc. 5000 Rocky Mountain Regional list for 2025.
- Innovative Leadership: Our CEO, Ryan Porter, was named an EY Entrepreneur of the Year 2025, and our CTO, Steve Lindsey, was inducted into the Silicon Slopes CTO Hall of Fame in 2024.
- Product & Software Excellence: We were named one of The Software Report’s Top 100 Software Companies of 2023 and are a winner of the Security Today Govies Award for 2025.
About This Role
LVT is looking for a hands-on AI practitioner to own and execute our AI initiatives across the organization. As Senior AI Specialist, you will build and ship production AI systems, shape how LVT adopts AI at scale, and partner cross-functionally to turn AI from an experiment into a competitive advantage. This is an individual contributor role reporting into IT leadership — you’ll work directly with Data Engineering and the Automation Integrations team to build RAG pipelines, develop AI policy, rationalize our AI tool investments, and embed intelligent components within our automation workflows. This role is based in-office out of our Headquarters in American Fork, Utah.
Role Responsibilities
- Execute LVT’s AI adoption strategy, owning the roadmap of AI initiatives and driving measurable business value across departments.
- Develop and own LVT’s internal AI policy framework, setting standards for responsible AI use, governance, and organizational readiness.
- Audit and rationalize the AI capabilities embedded across LVT’s existing tech stack — driving adoption of high-value tools, consolidating redundancies, and deprecating underutilized spend.
- Build and deploy RAG pipelines and Cortex-based models in partnership with Data Engineering, translating business needs into production-ready AI solutions.
- Architect the AI strategy at the intersection of automation — defining where and how AI augments workflows built on platforms like Workato and Oracle Integration Cloud (OIC).
- Design and build the AI components embedded within automation flows, partnering with the Automation Integrations team to ensure seamless, intelligent execution.
- Champion AI literacy and adoption across LVT, partnering with business leaders to identify high-impact opportunities and drive measurable outcomes.
- Communicate AI strategy and progress to executive leadership, translating technical direction into clear business outcomes.
OUR IDEAL CANDIDATE
- AI Practitioner First: You have built and shipped LLM-based systems in production — not just used AI-powered SaaS tools. Strategy matters, but your hands are in the code.
- Proven AI Depth: You have substantive, hands-on experience building and deploying LLM-based solutions — RAG pipelines, vector databases, agent frameworks, prompt engineering at scale. Using Copilot or ChatGPT at work does not qualify. We need someone who can build the systems, not just use them.
- Platform Fluent: You understand enterprise automation platforms (Workato, OIC, or equivalent) and can reason clearly about where AI fits within complex integration flows.
- Tech Stack Evaluator: You know how to assess embedded AI features across SaaS and enterprise tools — cutting through vendor marketing to determine what’s actually delivering value, what’s redundant, and what should go.
- Policy-Minded: You’ve developed or contributed to AI governance frameworks, usage policies, or organizational AI standards — and you understand the stakes of getting it right.
- Cross-Functional Influencer: You build trust with engineering, operations, and executive stakeholders alike, and know how to move initiatives forward without direct authority over every team involved.
- Data-Environment Comfortable: You’re experienced working within data platforms (e.g., Snowflake, Cortex) and partnering with data engineering teams to bring AI models from concept to production.
- Outcome-Oriented: You measure your work by business impact — adoption rates, efficiency gains, cost reduction — not by the sophistication of the model you shipped.
Benefits
We believe you do your best work when your whole life is supported. We invest in our crew’s health, families, and financial futures with a benefits package designed to support you inside and outside the office. Full-time benefits include, but not limited to: Comprehensive health, dental and vision coverage, retirement benefits (401k match up to 4%), and flexible PTO.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Green Card Sponsorship as an AI Specialist
Document your AI credentials before applying
Gather transcripts, publications, patents, and performance reviews that map directly to the DOL's specialty occupation definition. PERM audits frequently target AI roles because job duties can overlap with general software engineering, so concrete documentation of machine learning specialization strengthens your case.
Target employers with active PERM filings
Search the DOL PERM disclosure data for companies that have certified AI Specialist or Machine Learning Engineer positions in the past two years. Recent PERM approvals in your exact role category signal that a company already has the internal process and legal support to sponsor you.
Use Migrate Mate to filter green card sponsoring roles
Search AI Specialist jobs on Migrate Mate and filter by EB-2 or EB-3 sponsorship availability. This surfaces employers who have confirmed green card sponsorship history, saving you from applying to companies whose recruiters will later say sponsorship isn't available for your level.
Clarify sponsorship scope during offer negotiation
Ask specifically whether the offer includes PERM labor certification and I-140 filing, not just H-1B visa transfer. Some employers sponsor temporary status but decline to initiate green card proceedings, and you want that commitment in writing before you accept and give notice to your current employer.
Verify your role's wage level against OFLC Wage Search
PERM requires your offered salary to meet the prevailing wage for your specific SOC code and work location. AI Specialist duties often map to multiple SOC codes with different wage floors, so confirming the correct classification with your employer's attorney before the labor certification is filed avoids preventable denials.
Understand EB-2 versus EB-3 classification for AI roles
If your role requires a master's degree or you hold a U.S. master's equivalent, EB-2 without the PERM step may be available through a National Interest Waiver self-petition. EB-3 professional is the fallback for bachelor's-level AI roles and carries no numerical cap concerns for most countries outside India and China.
Green Card AI Specialist: Frequently Asked Questions
Do AI Specialist roles qualify for EB-2 or EB-3 green card sponsorship?
Most AI Specialist positions qualify for EB-2 when the employer's minimum requirement is a master's degree in computer science, machine learning, or a related field. Roles requiring only a bachelor's degree fall under EB-3 professional. The employer's stated job requirements at the time of the PERM filing, not your personal credentials, determine the category, so the job description language matters significantly.
How does PERM green card sponsorship differ from H-1B for AI Specialists?
H-1B is a temporary status tied to a specific employer with a six-year base limit and an annual lottery. PERM-based sponsorship leads to permanent residency with no lottery and no expiration. The tradeoff is time: PERM labor certification plus I-140 adjudication typically takes one to three years before you reach the final adjustment of status stage, depending on your country of birth and USCIS processing backlogs.
Which employers regularly sponsor green cards for AI Specialist positions?
Technology companies, financial services firms, healthcare systems, and large research-driven organizations have the most consistent PERM filing history for AI roles. Rather than guessing, search the DOL PERM disclosure data by job title and employer to see certified applications in your specialty. Migrate Mate also lets you filter AI Specialist listings by green card sponsorship history so you can focus on employers with a confirmed track record.
Can I switch employers after my I-140 is approved but before I get my green card?
Yes, under AC21 portability rules, once your I-140 is approved and your priority date has been pending for 180 days or more, you can change employers as long as the new role is in the same or a similar occupational classification. For AI Specialists, a move from one machine learning engineering role to a comparable one at a different company generally satisfies the similarity requirement, but you should confirm the classification match with an immigration attorney before accepting.
What does the PERM labor certification process involve for AI Specialist jobs?
The employer must conduct a DOL-supervised recruitment process to demonstrate that no qualified U.S. worker is available for the position. This includes posting the job through specific channels, documenting applicant rejections, and filing ETA Form 9089 with DOL. For AI Specialist roles, the job duties description must be precise because vague or overly broad language frequently triggers audits. USCIS then reviews the approved PERM when the employer files the I-140 immigrant petition.
