Live roles as of 15 November 2026. [Open the AI tab](https://realanalystjobs.com/?mode=ai#jobs). E-Verify: Enrolled means the employer is enrolled per E-Verify's public employer list as of 6 November 2026; we matched it by name. Employers choose which hiring sites use E-Verify, so confirm with the employer that the site you would join is enrolled, and check the company's E-Verify number on your Form I-983. No data means we could not match the employer, not that it is not enrolled. ## Frequently asked ### Where can I find entry level AI engineer jobs? 21 entry-level US AI engineer roles are open on Real Analyst Jobs as of 15 November 2026, at 18 companies. 14 (67%) are at employers with a USCIS H-1B record (USCIS H-1B Employer Data Hub, FY2023 to FY2026, data as of 2026-09-30).
