Position Description:
Employees in this job function are responsible for developing intelligent programs cognitive applications and algorithms for data analysis and automation leveraging various AI techniques such as deep learning generative AI natural language processing image processing cognitive automation intelligent process automation reinforcement learning virtual assistants and specialized programming
Key Responsibilities:
- Understand business requirements and develop AI algorithms models and programs to solve complex problems generate recommendations extract patterns make predictions interpret sensor data (images sound) orchestrate automation and enable self-service capabilities
- Perform large-scale experimentation and develop data driven applications that translate data into actionable intelligence
- Drive innovative applications of Artificial Intelligence tools and techniques such as deep learning generative AI natural language processing image processing cognitive automation intelligent process automation reinforcement learning virtual assistants and specialized programming
- Research and optimize AI technologies to enhance efficiency and accuracy of data analysis and create more efficient automation
Skills Required:
- Google Cloud Platform
Experience Required:
- Bachelors or Masters degree in Computer Science Software Engineering or related field (or equivalent practical experience).
- 3 years building production software systems including 12 years on ML/AI or LLM-based applications. Proven experience designing and deploying multi-agent or multi-service architectures in production not just notebooks or demos.
- As one 2026 hiring analysis puts it the job is closer to distributed systems engineering with a probabilistic component than it is to ML research or prompt tweaking .
- Strong Python proficiency including async/concurrent programming and experience with backend frameworks (FastAPI Flask).
- Hands-on experience with agent orchestration frameworks LangGraph CrewAI LlamaIndex or equivalent for building stateful multi-step tool-using agent workflows.
- Practical experience building RAG pipelines: vector databases (pgvector Pinecone Weaviate or Qdrant) embeddings chunking strategies and retrieval evaluation. Cloud deployment experience ideally Google Cloud Platform (BigQuery Cloud Run/GKE Vertex AI Pub/Sub) or equivalent AWS/Azure services.
- Strong SQL skills and experience with cloud data warehouses. Containerization and CI/CD experience (Docker Kubernetes GitHub Actions/Cloud Build).
- Experience building evaluation and observability pipelines for LLM/agent systems offline eval sets LLM-as-judge scoring and tracing tools (LangSmith Langfuse OpenTelemetry or equivalent) to track task success latency and cost.
- Understanding of LLM safety practices: guardrails output validation prompt-injection defense and safe execution of AI-generated code/SQL (sandboxing least privilege). Solid software engineering fundamentals: API design testing version control security best practices.
Experience Preferred:
- Experience with cost optimization and model routing designing tiered pipelines that route between low-cost and high-capability models based on task complexity and modeling per-conversation or per-task cost at scale.
- Experience deploying agentic systems with human-in-the-loop or multi-checkpoint validation workflows for high-reliability/high-stakes use cases.
- Experience with automotive EV charging IoT or connected-vehicle telemetry data.
- Familiarity with Model Context Protocol (MCP) or similar standards for tool/data integration across agents.
- Prior experience in a startup or 0-to-1 product environment comfortable with ambiguity and fast-evolving requirements.
Education Required:
- Bachelors Degree
Education Preferred:
- Masters Degree
Additional Information:
- Architect and deploy the production multi-agent orchestration layer (interpreter/orchestrator NL-to-SQL agent visualization agent RCA/RAG agent report composition agent notification agent) using modern agent frameworks with state management and checkpointing rather than ad-hoc loops.
- Design and productionize RAG pipelines (chunking embeddings hybrid retrieval reranking) grounded in approved schemas engineering documentation and historical issue records.
- Own BigQuery integration and enforce safe least-privilege validated execution of LLM-generated SQL. Build CI/CD containerization and infrastructure-as-code for deploying agent services on GCP (Cloud Run/GKE Vertex AI).
- Implement evaluation pipelines and observability/tracing for every agent (golden datasets LLM-as-judge scoring regression alerts) so quality is measurable not assumed.
- Implement guardrails prompt-injection defenses and human-in-the-loop approval checkpoints to ensure correctness and safety before any output triggers downstream action. Design cost/latency optimization strategies including tiered model routing (cheap filter models vs. high-capability deep-dive models) and caching.
- Integrate validated outputs with operational systems (Salesforce ticketing driver/site-manager notifications) and report export pipelines (PDF/HTML/spreadsheet).
- Collaborate with data scientists to productionize prototypes (anomaly detection diagnostic agents) into scalable monitored services.
- Establish versioning testing and safe rollout practices (canary/shadow deployments) for evolving agent logic.
