Job Description:

AI Engineer


Role Overview 

We are seeking a Generative AI Engineer with strong foundations in deep learning, transformer architecture, and practical experience building GenAI applications beyond basic RAG systems. The ideal candidate has hands-on experience/technical familiarity with LLM fine-tuning, multimodal models, retrieval systems, agentic frameworks, retrieval architectures, and production-grade ML deployment. 

This role will partner with engineering, data science, and CX teams to build intelligent agents, multimodal experiences, personalization systems, and knowledge-grounded AI solutions that power the future of customer engagement for global brands. 


Key Responsibilities

Generative AI, Multimodal Systems & Agentic Frameworks

  • Build conversational and non-conversational, multimodal, and agentic AI applications using LLMs and frameworks such as LangChain, LangGraph, LlamaIndex, AutoGen, or similar.
  • Design AI workflows incorporating reasoning, planning, tool-use, memory, grounding, and external system integrations.
  • Develop Knowledge Graph (KG)-assisted AI systems, including entity extraction, linking, and KG-augmented retrieval.
  • Ensure safety, consistency, and hallucination-control through structured evaluation and guardrails.

Deployment, APIs & Cloud Engineering

  • Transform models into scalable APIs and microservices using Python, FastAPI/Flask, Docker.
  • Deploy and monitor ML/AI systems in AWS/Azure/GCP, optimizing for cost, latency, and reliability.
  • Collaborate with MLOps teams on CI/CD pipelines, model versioning, monitoring, and automated evaluation.
  • Work with big data technologies including Apache Spark, Hadoop, and NoSQL databases such as MongoDB.

Model Development & Applied AI Engineering

  • Build and optimize transformer-based and multimodal models using deep learning frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow).
  • Implement fine-tuning, alignment (RLHF/RLAIF), LoRA/QLoRA, pruning, and model evaluation pipelines.
  • Develop information retrieval systems, including hybrid dense–sparse retrieval, ranking, knowledge graphs, and relevance optimization.
  • Build predictive models and ML pipelines from scratch, including data preparation, feature engineering, and model selection.

Collaboration, Documentation & Mentorship

  • Work cross-functionally with CX, engineering, and product stakeholders to translate business needs into AI solutions.
  • Document models, experiments, evaluation frameworks, and deployment processes.
  • Mentor junior engineers and contribute to internal best practices, reusable components, and R&D initiatives.

Required Technical Skills

  • Programming: Python (advanced), SQL; robust experience with API development and data engineering, 
  • Backend Frameworks: Flask, FASTAPI, Django
  • Machine Learning: Predictive modelling, deep learning, optimization, embeddings, vector search, model evaluation.
  • Generative AI: LLMs, RAG, multimodal architectures, agents, prompt engineering, grounding, knowledge graphs.
  • Cloud Platforms: AWS, Azure, or GCP with hands-on experience deploying and scaling AI systems.
  • Data Technologies: Apache Spark, Hadoop, MongoDB; strong understanding of data pipelines and large-scale processing.
  • Math Foundations: Linear algebra, probability, statistics.

Experience Requirements

  • Minimum 3-4 years of hands-on software development experience including building and deploying machine learning models into production.
  • 2+ years of experience working with deep learning, GenAI, or transformer-based architectures.
  • Demonstrated experience building GenAI applications beyond simple RAG (e.g., agents, multimodal, custom LLM fine-tuning).
  • Experience integrating AI systems in enterprise-grade environments.
