  • Drive the design of agentic workflows and multi-agent systems using established orchestration patterns.
  • Build, mentor, and manage a high-performing team of AI engineers and specialists.
  • Implement robust governance and ethical AI frameworks, including guardrails and agent sandboxing.
  • Drive the adoption of LLMOps, CI/CD, and agent observability best practices within the AI team.
  • Serve as the primary point of contact for stakeholders to manage expectations and mitigate project risks.

What we're looking for

  • 10+ years of overall experience.
  • 8+ years of experience in AI/ML, with at least 3 years in Generative AI including agentic AI.
  • 5+ years of leadership experience managing technical teams and delivering complex software or AI solutions.
  • Expert proficiency in Python and experience with packages like Transformers, LangChain, LlamaIndex, TensorFlow, PyTorch, Pandas, NumPy, Scikit-learn, and Flask/Django.
  • Extensive hands-on experience with AWS services and infrastructure related to AI/GenAI.
  • Experience with LLMs (Llama, Gemini, GPT), vector databases, MLOps tools, containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), and CI/CD tools.
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Data Science, AI, or a related field (PhD preferred).
  • A strong portfolio of projects showcasing the successful delivery of AI solutions into a production business environment.
