Big plus: Strong knowledge of modern data stack technologies (e.g. Databricks Snowflake) for pipeline integration and scalable deployment.

As a Senior AI Engineer you will design develop and deploy context-driven production-ready AI solutions that transform how entire organizations work and deliver value. Youll leverage the power of LLMs and next-gen AI agents to automate complex workflows unleashing revolutionary productivity and efficiency. Your work will directly contribute to the adoption of autonomous AI agents enabling smarter operations and seamless data pipelines.

Core Responsibilities:

• Understand and analyze technical requirements and translate them into implementation tasks for agentic AI solutions.

• Develop and integrate scalable agentic AI solutions including the backend infrastructure required for seamless end-to-end deployment.

• Implement testing monitoring and evaluation pipelines to continuously improve prompt effectiveness context handling and overall agent performance.

• Participate in code reviews contribute to best practices and mentor medior engineers on AI automation technologies and frameworks.

Technical Skills:

• Strong experience with full-stack Python development (FastAPI Flask; SQL/NoSQL databases).

• Strong proficiency with agentic frameworks such as LangGraph and LangSmith including prompt engineering context engineering harness engineering MCP RAG large language models (LLMs) fine-tuning and machine learning.

• Strong experience integrating AI agent solutions into production systems.

• Strong experience with cloud infrastructure containerization (Docker) and CI/CD practices.

• Strong experience with AI-powered IDEs and tools such as Visual Studio GitHub Copilot Windsurf Cursor etc.

• Strong analytical problem-solving and communication skills.

Years of experience:

3 years of software engineering or data science experience with at least 1 year of hands-on experience designing building and deploying agentic AI solutions in production.

As a Big Plus Strong Data Science LLM/GenAI Data Science Experience:

• Foundations in statistics and machine learning (probability hypothesis testing experimental design bias/variance regularization) and ability to translate ambiguous problems into measurable ML objectives.

• Experience building and validating predictive models end-to-end (feature engineering training cross-validation model selection error analysis) using tools like scikit-learn and XGBoost/LightGBM/CatBoost.

• Experience designing rigorous evaluation strategies: offline metrics online experimentation (A/B tests) guardrails and monitoring for drift/quality regressions.

• LLM evaluation experience: building automated and human-in-the-loop evals for generation quality (task success relevance factuality/faithfulness toxicity/safety) and using frameworks/patterns like LLM-as-a-judge with calibration and consistency checks.

• RAG-focused data science: measuring retrieval quality ( MRR nDCG) diagnosing chunking/embedding tradeoffs query rewriting reranking and grounding/attribution quality.

• Prompt and context optimization using experimental design: prompt A/B testing prompt regression testing sensitivity analysis and systematic prompt/version management.

• Fine-tuning and adaptation experience (as a plus): LoRA/QLoRA DPO/IPO-style preference optimization dataset creation/curation labeling guidelines and contamination/leakage checks.

• Familiarity with LLM systems performance and cost analytics: token/call optimization caching strategies latency/throughput benchmarking and model routing across providers/sizes.

• Experience with interpretability and debugging for GenAI systems (error taxonomy hallucination analysis attribution and root-cause analysis across retrieval/model/prompt layers).

Additional Plus Strong Experience with Data Engineering Stack (Snowflake Databricks).
