Vector Database Job information

What can you do with a vector database?

A vector database used in a vector database job stores and manages high-dimensional data for tasks like similarity search, recommendation systems, and machine learning applications. It enables efficient retrieval of related data points based on vector representations, often requiring knowledge of data indexing and query optimization. Working with such databases involves skills in data modeling, algorithms, and sometimes programming in languages like Python or C++.

Job description

Must Have Technical/Functional Skills
• Python (Expert level)
• Machine Learning & Model Training
o Training, evaluation, fine tuning
o Tagging and labeling workflows
• Generative AI & LLMs
o Prompt engineering for LLM-based applications
• Document Processing
o Document extraction, parsing, and chunking
o Handling structured & unstructured data
• Embeddings & Vector Search
o Embedding generation
o Vector database integration
• Databases

• Production-grade ML Engineering
o Scalable, production-ready ML/GenAI solutions
Roles & Responsibilities
This role is for a hands-on AI/ML Engineer who will design, build, and deploy production-grade Machine Learning and Generative AI solutions. The candidate must have strong Python expertise and practical experience taking ML and GenAI use cases from development to deployment.
The role focuses heavily on LLM-based applications, including prompt engineering, document processing pipelines, and embedding-based search solutions. The engineer will work with both structured and unstructured data, building pipelines for document extraction, parsing, and chunking, and integrating ML models with Vector Databases and MongoDB.
An ideal candidate is someone who understands end-to-end ML workflowsfrom data preparation, tagging, and labeling, through model training, evaluation, and fine-tuningwhile ensuring solutions are scalable, high quality, and production ready.
For recruiter to interpret accurately
• Not a pure data analyst this is an engineering-focused ML/GenAI role
• Not theoretical AI requires real-world deployment experience
• Strong fit for candidates with backgrounds in:
o ML Engineering
o Applied Data Science
o GenAI / LLM application development
Key Responsibilities
• Design and implement AI/ML solutions using Python and modern ML frameworks
• Develop and optimize Prompt Engineering strategies for LLM-based systems
• Build and deploy Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines
• Integrate LLMs via APIs (Azure OpenAI preferred) into enterprise applications
• Develop and orchestrate Agent ic AI workflows with tool/function calling
• Implement vector search solutions using Vector Databases
• Ensure CI/CD integration and cloud deployment (Azure preferred)
• Establish observability, monitoring, and evaluation frameworks for AI systems
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver production-ready AI features
Generic Managerial Skills, If any
• Ability to explain complex ML / GenAI concepts to non-technical stakeholders and collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams.
• Strong analytical thinking to break down ambiguous business problems into workable ML or GenAI solutions.
• Takes end-to-end responsibility for solutionsfrom design to production readinesswithout constant supervision.
• Works well with data engineers, product owners, and platform teams to deliver integrated, scalable solutions.
• Actively keeps up with evolving ML, LLM, and GenAI technologies and improves skills proactively.
