ROLE SUMMARY
As a Lead Responsible AI (RAI) Engineer, you will lead the design, implementation, and operationalization of responsible AI, safety, quality, evaluation, and governance practices across GenAI and agentic AI solutions. This role sits at the intersection of AI engineering, quality engineering, governance, and production operations, ensuring that AI systems are not only functional, but also secure, reliable, auditable, and fit for enterprise use.
You will work closely with AI engineers, architects, Team Leads, product owners, integration teams, and platform teams to embed responsible AI controls into the full product lifecycle. This role requires strong understanding of LLM systems, RAG pipelines, agentic workflows, prompt safety, guardrails, testing strategies, observability, and enterprise risk considerations. It is not a purely policy or compliance role — it is a hands-on technical leadership role that ensures AI systems can be trusted in production.
The ideal candidate will combine technical depth in AI-enabled systems,



practical experience with testing and quality frameworks, and the ability to guide teams toward safe, scalable, and supportable implementation patterns.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
Lead the design and implementation of responsible AI, safety, and quality engineering practices for GenAI and agentic AI products
Define and operationalize AI validation strategies covering functional correctness, factual reliability, hallucination risk, retrieval quality, prompt safety, agent behavior, tool use, and failure handling
Establish test approaches for LLM-powered applications, RAG systems, agentic workflows, multi-step reasoning, tool orchestration, and context-sensitive AI interactions
Design and implement evaluation frameworks for relevance, safety, groundedness, consistency, latency, token usage, and business outcome alignment
Work with AI engineers and architects to embed guardrails, prompt controls, model usage boundaries, escalation paths, fallback s
