- Drive rapid prototyping, experimentation,



and iteration of AI features.
- Ensure scalability, performance, security, and cost optimization across cloud environments.
- Implement MLOps practices, including model deployment, monitoring, evaluation, and continuous improvement.
- Establish feedback loops for AI systems to improve accuracy, relevance, and user satisfaction.
- Identify technical risks and lead mitigation strategies.

Required Qualifications:

- 8+ years of software engineering experience, with 3+ years focused on AI/ML or data-driven applications.
- Strong hands-on experience designing and building RAG-based systems and LLM-powered applications.
- Experience with vector databases, embeddings, and semantic search frameworks.
- Proficiency in Python and experience with ML/AI frameworks (e.g., TensorFlow, PyTorch).
- Solid understanding of cloud platforms such as Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, or Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
- Experience with APIs, microservices, and distributed system design.
- Strong experience in product design thinking, including translating requirements into scalable technical and UX solutions.
- Familiarity with data pipelines, vector indexing, and retrieval optimization techniques.

Preferred Qualifications:

- Experience building advanced RAG pipelines with tools such as LangChain, LlamaIndex, or similar frameworks.
- Familiarity with prompt engineering, fine-tuning, and LLM evaluation techniques.
- Knowledge of AI governance, responsible AI, and data privacy frameworks.
- Experience in SaaS or enterprise platform development.
- Proven track record of building 0-to-1 AI products.
