Position Overview
We are seeking an experienced AI Engineer to design, build, and deploy production-grade AI systems that leverage large language models, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), and modern vector databases. The ideal candidate will combine strong software engineering discipline with hands-on experience in LLMs, LangChain, Microsoft Agent frameworks, and scalable search and vector storage solutions such as ChromaDB and Pinecone. You will work cross-functionally to turn research and prototypes into reliable, maintainable services that deliver measurable business value.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, implement, and maintain end-to-end AI solutions that incorporate LLMs, RAG architectures, and conversational agents.
• Develop and extend LangChain-based pipelines and Microsoft Agent integrations to enable multi-turn, context-aware interactions.
• Integrate and manage vector databases (ChromaDB, Pinecone) and Azure AI Search to support efficient retrieval and similarity search workflows.
• Build robust prompt engineering, context management, and grounding strategies to improve accuracy and reliability of generated outputs.
• Implement model evaluation, monitoring, and logging to track performance, latency, hallucination rates, and user feedback in production.
• Collaborate with product managers, data scientists, and software engineers to translate business requirements into scalable technical designs.
• Write clean, well-tested Python code, APIs, and microservices; participate in code reviews and maintain CI/CD pipelines.
• Optimize inference cost and latency through model selection, caching, batching, and infrastructure tuning (including Azure deployments).
• Research and prototype new models, tools, and techniques to continuously improve system capabilities and user experience.
• Document system design, runbooks, and operation procedures; provide support during incidents and production rollouts.

Qualifications

• Bachelors or Masters degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
• 3+ years of professional software engineering experience, with a minimum of 2 years focused on machine learning or AI systems.
• Proven expertise in Python and production software development best practices (testing, CI/CD, version control).
• Hands-on experience with LLMs and building applications around them (prompting, fine-tuning, instruction tuning, or adapters).
• Practical experience with LangChain and building composable LLM pipelines and agents.
• Experience implementing RAG systems and connecting LLMs to external knowledge via retrieval.
• Familiarity with Microsoft Agent frameworks and integrating conversational agents into products.
• Hands-on experience with vector databases or stores such as ChromaDB and Pinecone.
• Experience integrating and tuning Azure AI Search or equivalent cloud search services; comfort working in Azure.
• Knowledge of ML/DL frameworks such as PyTorch or TensorFlow, and model deployment tools.
• Strong understanding of API design, microservices, containerization (Docker), and orchestration (Kubernetes preferred).
• Excellent problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and ability to communicate technical concepts clearly to cross-functional teams.
• Nice to have: contributions to open-source projects, prior experience in productionizing LLMs at scale, or advanced degree (MS/PhD).
