Job description

  • Data Analysis and Modeling: Leveraging advanced analytics and machine learning techniques to extract actionable insights from data, enabling data-driven decision-making for the client.

  • Model Development: Creating predictive models and AI-driven solutions that optimize client services, enhance personalization, and improve overall client experiences.

  • Continuous Improvement: Iterating on models and algorithms to adapt to changing client needs and data trends, ensuring that services evolve to meet evolving expectations.

  • Data Security and Ethics: Upholding data privacy standards and ethical AI practices to build trust with clients and protect sensitive information.

  • Cross-functional Collaboration: Collaborating with cross-functional teams to integrate AI/ML solutions seamlessly into client services, aligning technology with business goals.

  • Innovation: Staying at the forefront of AI and ML advancements to identify opportunities for innovation and provide clients with cutting-edge, competitive services.

Responsibilities:

  • Extend and harden RAG pipelines, retrieval strategies, and embedding workflows.
  • Design, implement, and productionize agent architectures that orchestrate between RAG, structured queries, and external actions (APIs, PPT generation).
  • Finetune and evaluate LLMs; implement model selection, prompt engineering, and safety/guardrails.
  • Build/maintain endpoints and tooling for model serving, versioning, and observability.
  • Collaborate with SQL engineers to safely access structured data; design retrieval interfaces and templates.
  • Implement testing, monitoring, and metrics (latency, accuracy, hallucination rates, cost).
  • Participate in architecture decisions for cost/perf tradeoffs and vendor selection.

Requirements

  • Hands-on experience building RAG pipelines and agentic systems in production.
  • Practical experience fine-tuning LLMs or applying model-adaptation techniques.
  • Experience with at least one LLM orchestration library (e.g., LangChain, LlamaIndex, or equivalent) and ability to explain deep implementation details.
  • Strong software engineering skills (Python preferred) and API design experience.
  • Ability to explain concrete projects: architecture, why tools chosen, dataset preparation, evaluation metrics, and deployment details., * Experience integrating LLMs with databases and ability to implement secure structured-data retrieval.
  • Familiarity with embedding stores / vector DBs (e.g., Pinecone, Milvus, Weaviate, or Oracle embedding features).
  • Knowledge of LLM safety, prompting strategies, retrieval augmentation, and hallucination mitigation.
  • Experience with cloud model hosting, monitoring, cost optimization, and infra (K8s, serverless).
  • Java experience is nice-to-have for interoperability but not required.
