location: Charlotte, North Carolina

job type: Contract

salary: $64.54 - 69.54 per hour

work hours: 8am to 5pm

education: Bachelors

Key Responsibilities Architecture & Orchestration Design multi-step agentic workflows with LangGraph (state machines, tools, retries, timeouts) and LangChain (chains, tools, memory). Build guardrails (input/output filtering, red-teaming hooks) and observability (tracing, telemetry, logging, prompt/version tracking).

RAG Pipelines Own ingestion pipelines: chunking, embeddings, document normalization, metadata, and vector DB indexing (e.g., Pinecone, Weaviate, Milvus, FAISS). Implement retrieval strategies: hybrid (BM25 + dense), multi-vector, reranking, query planning, LangGraph retrieval sub-graphs, caching. Build domain-specific adapters (schema, ontology alignment) and grounding with structured tools/knowledge bases.

Vertex AI & Platform Engineering Productionize services on Google Vertex AI (Models, Endpoints, Workbench, Pipelines, Vector Search, Feature Store). Containerize with Docker, orchestrate with Kubernetes/GKE, and automate with CI/CD (GitHub Actions/Cloud Build).

Full-Stack Delivery Build user-facing apps (React/Next.js) and backends (Python/FastAPI, Node/Express), including authentication/authorization and rate limiting. Develop tooling/services (e.g., document loaders, evaluators, red-teaming flows, prompt versioning, synthetic data pipelines).

Evaluation & Reliability Define and automate GenAI evaluation: relevance, faithfulness, hallucination rate, answer-exactness, latency, cost. Use techniques like RAGAS, G-Eval, rubric-based human-in-the-loop, pairwise comparisons, A/B tests, and production feedback loops.

Security, Governance & Cost Implement data privacy controls (PII detection, masking), policy enforcement, prompt hardening, and audit logging. Optimize latency and TCO (embedding/model selection, batching, caching, streaming, adaptive routing, quantization where applicable).

Mentorship & Standards Establish best practices for prompt patterns, orchestration, testing (unit & scenario), and model lifecycle management. Mentor engineers; collaborate with product/design to scope features and deliver business impact.

7-10+ years software engineering experience; 3-5+ years applied ML/GenAI building production systems. Expert with LangChain and LangGraph (tools, agents, state graphs, retries, sub-graphs, observability). Hands-on with Vertex AI (Foundational models, Endpoints, Pipelines, Vector Search, Model Garden; IAM & service architectures). Robust RAG practitioner (chunking strategies, embeddings, hybrid retrieval, rerankers like Cohere/Rerank or bge-rerank, evaluation). Deep experience with vector databases (Pinecone, Weaviate, Milvus, FAISS) and embedding models (OpenAI, Vertex, Cohere, bge-large). Production backends in Python (FastAPI) or Node.js, plus React/Next.js front-end experience. Solid cloud experience (Google Cloud Platform preferred; AWS/Azure a plus), Docker/Kubernetes, and CI/CD. Robust understanding of GenAI evaluation (RAGAS, G-Eval, rubric scoring), observability (LangSmith/LlamaIndex observability/OpenTelemetry), and prompt/version management. Knowledge of security & governance: PII handling, isolation, data residency, prompt injection defenses, secret management. Excellent communication; proven track record turning ambiguous problem statements into shipped products.

Knowledge graphs (RDF/OWL), retrieval planning, and toolformer/agent patterns. LLM serving and routing (DG/mixture-of-experts, function/tool calling, Guardrails, Instructor schemas, Pydantic). LlamaIndex experience; structured RAG (SQL/Graph RAG); function/tool calling integrations (Databases, SaaS).
