• Leverage knowledge graphs: Use knowledge graphs to enhance reasoning, entity relationships, context retrieval, and multi-step workflows.

• Partner across functions: Collaborate with product, engineering, operations, and analytics partners to co-create scalable AI solutions and translate business needs into robust technical designs.

• Mentor and upskill others: Coach engineers and scientists in AI, LLMs, and agentic workflow design through pairing, reviews, and architectural guidance.

• Drive innovation: Explore new models, frameworks, and reasoning techniques and apply them thoughtfully to real-world challenges.

• Influence architecture: Provide technical guidance on architecture, experimentation, and deployment within and across teams.

• Experiment and evaluate rigorously: Run end-to-end experimentation, including hypothesis definition, measurement, validation, and iterative improvement in production environments.

• Model best practices: Establish and promote engineering best practices for reliability, interpretability, safety, governance, and monitoring of production AI systems.

What We Are Looking For (Must Have)

• Experience: 4+ years of professional software engineering or applied machine learning experience, including 1+ years working with Generative AI or LLM-based systems in production.

• Hands-on AI engineering: Strong experience with Python and modern AI frameworks such as LangChain, LangGraph, LangSmith, LlamaIndex, Hugging Face, and OpenAI or Anthropic APIs.

• Production AI delivery: Demonstrated experience designing, building, and operating production AI systems, including agentic workflows and intelligent automation features.

• Systems engineering excellence: Proven track record building scalable, resilient, secure, and maintainable systems that run reliably in production.
