TL;DR · Careers

Join our core AI team at Qualcomm Technologies as a Senior Machine Learning Engineer specializing in Generative AI, where you will design and implement cutting-edge generative solutions focusing on Large Language Models (LLMs), Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), and intelligent agent systems. Your daily tasks include enhancing LLM capabilities with external knowledge sources through RAG-based designs, developing fine-tuning strategies for specific use cases, creating robust evaluation frameworks, and building agentic workflows for autonomous AI systems while collaborating closely with cross-functional teams to identify opportunities and implement solutions. The role requires expertise in Python, ML frameworks like PyTorch and TensorFlow, vector databases, and cloud platforms such as AWS, GCP, or Azure, along with a strong understanding of RAG architectures. Experience with LLM frameworks, prompt engineering, containerization, and contributions to open-source AI projects is preferred.

What you'll do

  • Design and implement RAG-based solutions to enhance LLM capabilities with external knowledge.
  • Develop and optimize fine-tuning strategies for Large Language Models in specific use cases.
  • Create robust evaluation frameworks to measure and improve model performance continuously.
  • Build agentic workflows for autonomous AI systems to enable intelligent decision-making.
  • Integrate vector databases and embedding models into AI solutions for efficient data retrieval.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science or related technical field.
  • 3+ years of experience in Machine Learning/AI engineering.
  • Strong programming skills in Python and experience with ML frameworks like PyTorch and TensorFlow.
  • Practical experience with LLM deployments and fine-tuning strategies.
  • Experience with vector databases, embedding models, and RAG architectures.
  • Familiarity with modern AI/ML infrastructure and cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure).
  • Strong understanding of RAG implementations and evaluation frameworks.
