All reasons
In its favour
- Still listed on the employer's own board
- Translate business needs into workflows, choosing deterministic automation, single-agent, or multi-agent designs based on reliability, complexity, cost, and value.
- Build modular, tested Python services that integrate large language models (LLMs), APIs, databases, and enterprise tools into production-ready applications.
- Implement agent orchestration, including tool calling, structured outputs, state, memory, routing, retries, timeouts, and human approval steps, to ensure reliable agent behavior.
- Build retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipelines covering ingestion, chunking, embeddings, reranking, and access-aware retrieval to improve knowledge grounding and accuracy.
- Establish evaluation datasets and automated tests for task completion, accuracy, retrieval quality, tool selection, safety, latency, and cost.
- Own deployment readiness, CI/CD, observability, versioning, and rollback, and lead incident investigation to ensure reliable production operation.
- Implement security and governance controls, including least privilege access, PII protection, secrets management, audit trails, and prompt-injection defenses, to safeguard enterprise AI systems.
- Mentor the team, review code and architecture, and set standards for testing, modularization, and documentation to strengthen team capability.
- Define acceptance criteria and benchmark models and frameworks for quality, portability, and total cost to guide product and technology decisions.
- Educational Background:
- Relevant degree in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
- Experience:
- 7+ years of experience in software engineering, machine learning engineering, or applied AI, including demonstrated ownership of an LLM-powered production application from architecture through operation.
- 3-4 years of experience in mentoring engineers and guiding a multidisciplinary team.
- Technical Proficiency:
- Strong Python skills, with experience in APIs, asynchronous processing, typed data models, automated testing, and Git
- Practical experience with agent workflows, tool/function calling, structured outputs, and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG)
- Understanding of LLM limitations, including hallucinations, context constraints, and nondeterministic behavior
- Experience with SQL, data pipelines, and vector search or other retrieval systems
- Experience with Docker, CI/CD, cloud deployment, monitoring, and production troubleshooting
- Familiarity with LangGraph, LangChain, Semantic Kernel, or equivalent agent tooling and Model Context Protocol (MCP) integrations.
