Contributes to the design, development, delivery, and maintenance of AI-enabled solutions or infrastructure while aligning to relevant engineering standards and project delivery expectations. Contributes to the integration of AI/ML capabilities into broader enterprise solutions, with a focus on quality, scalability, and user impact.
- Your key responsibilities Develop, test, and deploy, production-grade AI/ML, generative AI, and intelligent automation solutions.
- Support building and integrating LLM, RAG, and agentic solution components into enterprise applications and platforms.
- Support project delivery through disciplined execution, documentation, and status communication.
- Use modern AI-assisted software engineering tools such as Claude Code, Codex, or equivalent agentic coding platforms as part of day-to-day engineering delivery to improve delivery speed, code quality and engineering efficiency.
- AI and Engineering Skills: Gen AI Foundational: Demonstrated experience building retrieval-augmented systems that ground model outputs in enterprise knowledge sources, including chunking strategies, embedding pipelines, and retrieval optimization (e.g. LlamaIndex, LangChain, Pinecone, Weaviate, Azure AI Search, pgvector etc.).
- Knowledge of embedding models, vector search, and semantic retrieval patterns used to ground LLM outputs in enterprise knowledge sources (e.g. OpenAI Embeddings, Azure AI Search, pgvector etc.).
- Experience in prompt engineering techniques including zero-shot, few-shot, chain-of-thought, and structured output design, with the ability to systematically evaluate and iterate on prompt performance (e.g. DSPy, PromptFlow etc.).
- Agentic and LLM Ops: Experience designing and building agentic systems including multi-agent orchestration patterns, tool use, and memory design across single and multi-step workflows (e.g. LangGraph, AutoGen, CrewAI, Semantic Kernel, NVIDIA NIM etc.) Software Engineering: Hands-on software engineering proficiency in Python, with the ability to write clean, modular, production-quality code for LLM pipelines and agentic applications.
- Experience working with structured and unstructured data sets to support LLM application development, including data curation, preparation, and quality validation for model inputs.
- Familiarity with RESTful and event-driven API patterns including asynchronous workflows, service boundaries, and integration of enterprise data sources to expose LLM and agentic capabilities.
- Familiarity with containerization and orchestration concepts for packaging and deploying LLM applications in cloud environments (e.g. Docker, Kubernetes, Azure Container Apps, AWS ECS etc.).
- Understanding of software engineering best practices as applied to ML systems, including modular code design, testing patterns for AI pipelines, and data quality validation.
- Soft Skills and additional attributes for success: Able to operate effectively as requirements, regulations, and technologies evolve.
- Collaborative and cross‑functional, working closely with engineering teams.
- Bachelor’s degree preferred.
- 1+ years of applied engineering experience, including meaningful experience in AI/ML engineering roles.
- Demonstrated experience in the following areas will be a huge plus: Ability to understand business challenges and translate them into value-add AI solutions leveraging large language models and intelligent automation.
- Experience designing, building, and maintaining production-grade LLM applications, including end-to-end pipelines from data ingestion through model output delivery (e.g. Azure OpenAI, AWS Bedrock, Google Vertex AI etc.).
- Familiarity with CI/CD and operationalization practices for AI systems, including model and workflow deployment, versioning, environment promotion, and release support in cloud or containerized environments.
- Familiarity with LLM fine-tuning approaches including instruction tuning and preference optimization, with an understanding of when fine-tuning is appropriate versus prompt-based solutions (e.g. LoRA, QLoRA, PEFT, NeMo Framework etc.).
- Familiarity with responsible AI principles including bias and fairness evaluation, human-in-the-loop design, and explainability approaches in the financial services contexts.
- Familiarity with data pipeline design for AI workloads including ingestion, transformation, and quality validation.
- Familiarity with cloud-based platforms for building, training, and deploying scalable LLM solutions (e.g. Azure ML, AWS SageMaker, Google Vertex AI etc.).
