About the role
- Design, build, and deploy cutting-edge AI solutions that deliver autonomous, user-facing capabilities.
- Take ownership of end-to-end AI solution delivery, from initial concept through production deployment and ongoing optimization.
- Architect and implement LLM-powered applications & enrichments, multi-agent workflows, and autonomous AI systems.
- Orchestrate large language models, build sophisticated prompt engineering frameworks and fine-tuning, create robust RAG systems using vector databases and semantic search technologies.
- Deploy and operate these LLM applications at scale, ensuring they perform reliably in production environments.
- Containerize AI services, implement deployment pipelines for rapid iteration, and establish monitoring systems that track both performance metrics and AI-specific indicators like response quality, hallucination rates, and autonomous decision accuracy.
- Ensure AI systems are production-ready and enterprise-grade.
- Manage the infrastructure that powers AI applications, optimize for performance and cost-effectiveness, establishing automated evaluation frameworks for LLM applications, and build robust fallback mechanisms.
- Ensure AI systems meet security and compliance requirements while maintaining the ability to rapidly iterate and improve AI capabilities based on user feedback and performance data.
Requirements
- Hands-on experience in AI/ML engineering, software development, or related technical roles with demonstrable experience building and deploying AI powered applications.
