Key Responsibilities:
* Architect and implement scalable AI Agents Agentic Workflows and GenAI applications to address diverse and complex business use cases.
* Develop fine-tune and optimize lightweight LLMs; lead the evaluation and adaptation of models such as Claude (Anthropic) Azure OpenAI and open-source alternatives.
* Design and deploy Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and Graph RAG systems using vector databases and knowledge bases.
* Curate enterprise data using connectors integrated with AWS Bedrocks Knowledge Base/Elastic
* Implement solutions leveraging MCP (Model Context Protocol) and A2A (Agent-to-Agent) communication.
* Build and maintain Jupyter-based notebooks using platforms like SageMaker and MLFlow/Kubeflow on Kubernetes (EKS).
* Collaborate with cross-functional teams of UI and microservice engineers designers and data engineers to build full-stack Gen AI experiences.
* Integrate GenAI solutions with enterprise platforms via API-based methods and GenAI standardized patterns.
* Establish and enforce validation procedures with Evaluation Frameworks bias mitigation safety protocols and guardrails for production-ready deployment.
* Design & build robust ingestion pipelines that extract chunk enrich and anonymize data from PDFs video and audio sources for use in LLM-powered workflows-leveraging best practices like semantic chunking and privacy controls
* Orchestrate multimodal pipelines** using scalable frameworks (e.g. Apache Spark PySpark) for automated ETL/ELT workflows appropriate for unstructured media
* Implement embeddings drives-map media content to vector representations using embedding models and integrate with vector stores (AWS KnowledgeBase/Elastic/Mongo Atlas) to support RAG architectures
