• Should be able to architect and implement scalable ML Generative AI and Agentic AI solutions (LLMs RAG autonomous agents) aligned with business objectives.
• Must have experience in data science ML engineering or AI architecture with at least 5 years leading ML solutions from design to production.
• Should have expertise in Python SQL and Solid statistics including outlier detection and error metrics
• Should have  exposure to time series forecasting.
• Should have production experience with regression and tabular ML: feature engineering model selection calibration uncertainty (conformal or quantile intervals) and explainability (SHAP coefficients).
• Must have experience with hierarchical forecasting or reconciliation and prompt-injection testing.
• Should have hands-on experience with embeddings vector search and hybrid retrieval and with LLM applications: tool calling retrieval-grounded generation citations guardrails and evaluation.
• Should have hands-on experience for building conversational agent with multi-turn session memory and tool calling into the multiple engines and the semantic layer.
• Must have experience on a major cloud: pipelines model registry drift monitoring retraining and low-latency serving.
• Should have experience with Google Cloud (Vertex AI BigQuery Gemini Vector Search) or equivalent on another cloud.
• Design retrieval-grounded generation with citations input and output guardrails human approval for actions and layered attack-tested prompt-injection protection

ESPONSIBILITIES:

• Understanding the clients business use cases and technical requirements and be able to convert them into technical design which elegantly meets the requirements.
• Lead the design and implementation of complex GenAI workflows that combine LLMs tools APIs structured data and user context.
• Establish engineering standards and best practices for prompt design model integration evaluation and observability.
• Drive GenAI platform building reusable components SDKs and frameworks used across multiple teams or products.
• Partner with product design data and business leaders to translate strategic objectives into scalable technical solutions.
• Review critical designs and codebases unblock teams on complex technical challenges and raise the overall engineering bar.
• Lead technical discovery and solutioning for high-impact initiatives including client or executive-facing workshops when required.
• Ensure enterprise readiness: security privacy compliance governance and responsible AI practices.
•  Mapping decisions with requirements and be able to translate the same to developers.
• Identifying different solutions and being able to narrow down the best option that meets the clients requirements.
• Defining guidelines and benchmarks for NFR considerations during project implementation
• Writing and reviewing design document explaining overall architecture framework and high-level design of the application for the developers
• Reviewing architecture and design on various aspects like extensibility scalability security design patterns user experience NFRs etc. and ensure that all relevant best practices are followed.
• Developing and designing the overall solution for defined functional and non-functional requirements; and defining technologies patterns and frameworks to materialize it
• Understanding and relating technology integration scenarios and applying these learnings in projects
• Resolving issues that are raised during code/review through exhaustive systematic analysis of the root cause and being able to justify the decision taken.
• Carrying out POCs to make sure that suggested design/technologies meet the requirements.
