- Build multi-step reasoning agents, tool/function-calling workflows, and multi-agent architectures using frameworks such as LangGraph, AutoGen, CrewAI, or custom orchestration.
- Design and productionize scalable RAG pipelines, including chunking, embeddings, vector search, and hybrid retrieval.
- Evaluate and select foundation models based on performance, accuracy, latency, cost, and business requirements.
- Develop strategies for prompt engineering, model routing, fine-tuning, and optimization.
- Own technical architecture decisions for scalable, reliable, and cost-efficient LLM applications.
- Establish engineering standards covering testing, evaluation, observability, guardrails, hallucination mitigation, and production monitoring.
- Design APIs, microservices, and cloud-native architectures supporting AI applications at scale.
- Drive AI/LLMOps practices across model lifecycle management, deployment, monitoring, and continuous improvement.
- Lead, mentor, and develop AI/ML and backend engineers.
- Conduct technical design reviews, architecture discussions, and code reviews.
- Establish engineering best practices and promote high standards for production AI development.
- Provide technical direction while remaining actively involved in complex engineering problems.

- Deep expertise in LLM application development, RAG, embeddings, vector databases, prompt engineering, and AI agents.
- Practical experience with multi-agent systems, tool/function calling, memory management, planning, and reasoning workflows.
- Strong Python and software engineering fundamentals with experience building scalable, distributed, production-grade systems.
- Experience with APIs, microservices, cloud-native architecture, and at least one major cloud platform such as AWS, Azure, or GCP.
- Hands-on experience with MLOps/LLMOps tools such as MLflow, LangSmith, Weights & Biases, or equivalent platforms.
- Working knowledge of LLM fine-tuning and evaluation techniques, including LoRA/PEFT, RLHF concepts, and offline/online evaluation frameworks.
- Proven ability to provide technical leadership, mentor engineers, own architecture decisions, and collaborate across teams.
- Strong communication skills with the ability to translate complex technical concepts into clear business and executive-level discussions.
- Experience deploying and fine-tuning open-source models such as Llama or Mistral, alongside proprietary models/APIs.
- Contributions to AI/GenAI open-source projects, technical publications, or conference presentations.
