In short

We are seeking a Generative AI Engineer III with strong Python skills to act as an embedded AI expert in a product team. You will design, develop, and optimize GenAI and Agentic AI applications, integrate LLMs, and mentor other developers on AI concepts.

Responsibilities

  • Act as the squad's embedded GenAI expert and single point of contact for all AI/GenAI-related decisions, implementation, and guidance.
  • Design, develop, and optimize production-grade GenAI and Agentic AI applications, services, and pipelines in Python.
  • Interpret architectural blueprints and implement complex GenAI components, ensuring alignment with enterprise standards.
  • Integrate Large Language Models (LLMs) — including OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, Hugging Face, Anthropic, and Cohere — into enterprise workflows and products.
  • Design and implement Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines, multi-agent orchestration systems, and Agentic AI flows.
  • Build, maintain, and evolve APIs, automation scripts, and AI pipelines on the AIForce platform.
  • Train and mentor squad members (backend, frontend, full-stack developers) on GenAI concepts, tools, frameworks, and best practices.
  • Conduct LLM performance evaluation, prompt optimization, and model fine-tuning as required.
  • Champion Safe AI, AI governance, and responsible AI development practices across the squad.
  • Monitor, test, and troubleshoot deployed GenAI models and services in production environments.
  • Stay current with emerging GenAI frameworks, LLM advances, and industry trends; proactively assess and introduce relevant innovations.

Requirements

  • Strong proficiency in Python (3+ years), including experience building production-grade applications.
  • Proven hands-on experience with Agentic AI and GenAI frameworks: LangChain, LlamaIndex, Hugging Face Transformers, AutoGen, CrewAI, or similar.
  • Demonstrated experience designing and implementing RAG architectures, vector search pipelines, and multi-agent systems.
  • Familiarity with LLM APIs: OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, Anthropic, Cohere, and open-source models.
  • Experience with vector databases (e.g., Pinecone, Weaviate, Azure AI Search, FAISS, Chroma).
  • Strong knowledge of prompt engineering, chain-of-thought techniques, and LLM evaluation/observability methods.
  • Knowledge of Safe AI principles, AI security, AI governance frameworks, and responsible AI development practices.
  • Hands-on experience with developing AI solutions on any cloud platform.
  • Solid software engineering fundamentals: Git, CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, API design.
  • Effective communication and mentoring skills — able to explain complex AI concepts to non-AI developers clearly.

Desired Qualifications

  • Understanding of LLM fine-tuning approaches (RLHF, PEFT, LoRA) — practical experience will be added advantage.
  • Experience with MLOps tooling (MLflow, Azure ML Pipelines, or equivalent).
  • Exposure to multimodal models (vision-language models, speech-to-text integration).
  • Prior experience working as an AI champion or tech lead within a cross-functional product team.
  • Familiarity with enterprise AI governance and compliance frameworks.

Benefits

  • Opportunity to work as an embedded AI expert within a product team.
  • Influence on AI strategy and implementation.
  • Mentorship and training opportunities for team members.
  • Exposure to various LLMs and AI platforms.
  • Work on enterprise-grade solutions.
  • Global technology company with diverse industry experience.
