Design and build LLM-based solutions and RAG pipelines, implement prompt engineering, develop Python-based backend APIs, integrate models with enterprise data, apply evaluation and guardrails, and collaborate cross-functionally to productionize GenAI applications.
Key Responsibilities
- Design and develop LLM-based solutions for business use cases (e.g., chatbots, summarisation, document intelligence).
- Build and optimise RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation) pipelines including data ingestion, embeddings, and retrieval.
- Implement prompt engineering techniques (prompt design, chaining, optimisation).
- Develop backend services/APIs for AI applications using Python frameworks (FastAPI / Flask / Streamlit).
- Integrate LLM solutions with enterprise systems and structured/unstructured data sources.
- Apply basic guardrails and evaluation techniques to improve response quality and reduce hallucinations.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure data quality, model performance, and deployment readiness.
- Document solutions and contribute to reusable components and best practices.
