What you'll do...
1. AI Model Development & Agentic Frameworks:
- Design, fine-tune, and deploy Generative AI models with a focus on RAG frameworks to enhance information retrieval and generation.
- Develop and optimize LLM-based agents for tasks like knowledge grounding, multi-step reasoning, and decision-making.
- Integrate external data sources (e.g., vector databases) with LLMs to build dynamic, context-aware systems.
2. Architecture & Scalability:
- Architect scalable, distributed AI systems with a focus on performance, fault tolerance, and disaster recovery.
- Develop detailed design specifications, including modular, extensible, and functional components.
- Build MVPs to validate requirements and refine designs iteratively.
3. Collaboration & Product Integration:
- Partner with product teams to integrate AI into customer-facing applications.
- Work cross-functionally to design solutions that address both functional and non-functional requirements.
4. Leadership & Mentorship:
- Drive technical direction for large-scale AI initiatives and mentor junior engineers.
- Establish best practices for building and maintaining AI-driven systems.
What you'll bring:
- Overall 12+ years of experience in machine learning / software engineering, with 2+ years in Generative AI or LLMs.
- Strong experience with RAG frameworks, vector search technologies and knowledge grounding techniques.
- Expertise in Python, ML frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow), and libraries like Hugging Face Transformers.
- Proficiency in distributed computing, cloud platforms (GCP, Azure), and scalable architectures.
- Familiarity with disaster recovery principles and building resilient, fault-tolerant systems.
- Experience with multi-modal models (text, image, video) and advanced optimization techniques (e.g., quantization, distillation).
- Experience with Generative AI models (e.g., GPT, Gemini) and their fine-tuning.
- Contributions to open-source projects or publications in Generative AI, RAG, or agentic frameworks.
- Strong understanding of system design, non-functional requirements, and design patterns.
