About the Role

We are looking for an experienced Lead LLM / Agentic AI Engineer to lead an AI-led transformation initiative for the Procurement function.

The candidate will design and develop a Procurement Category Insights Engine combining Classical Machine Learning, Statistical Modelling, LLMs, Generative AI and Agentic AI.

This is not a basic chatbot or RAG development role. The ideal candidate should have hands-on experience building production-grade Multi-Agent AI solutions, integrating real-time and external data sources, APIs, ERP/enterprise systems, and deploying scalable AI applications.

The role requires someone who can take a business problem from:

Business Problem → AI Architecture → Multi-Agent Solution → Enterprise Integration → Production Deployment → Client Handover

Key Responsibilities

-

Lead architecture and development of enterprise-grade LLM, GenAI and Agentic AI solutions.

-

Design and implement Multi-Agent AI workflows capable of reasoning, planning and executing multi-step tasks.

-

Build and orchestrate specialized AI agents for procurement-related use cases.

-

Design agent workflows, state management, tool calling and API integrations.

-

Develop the Procurement Category Insights Engine using ML, statistical modelling and GenAI.

-

Integrate internal, external and real-time data sources.

-

Integrate AI solutions with ERP and enterprise applications.

-

Build tools/API layers that enable agents to retrieve information and perform approved business actions.

-

Develop RAG-based solutions for enterprise knowledge and contextual understanding.

-

Implement prompt engineering, agent instructions, guardrails and evaluation mechanisms.

-

Implement LLM monitoring, evaluation and performance optimization.

-

Integrate classical ML/statistical models with GenAI applications.

-

Work closely with Data Scientists, Backend Engineers and Frontend Engineers to deliver end-to-end solutions.

-

Ensure solutions are scalable, secure, reliable and production-ready.

-

Lead technical discussions with client stakeholders.

-

Support testing, deployment, documentation and client handover.

Basic ChatGPT/API integration profiles.

-

Prompt Engineers without strong software engineering experience.

-

Candidates with only simple RAG chatbot projects.

-

Candidates without Multi-Agent experience.

-

Candidates without production GenAI implementation experience.

-

Pure Data Scientists without hands-on GenAI engineering.

-

Candidates without API/enterprise integration experience.

Technology Split

50% – Classical ML / Statistical Modelling / Analytics
50% – LLM / Generative AI / Agentic AI

The LLM/Agentic AI component is particularly critical for this position.

Key Success Criteria

The selected candidate should be able to build a production-ready solution capable of:

-

Consuming internal, external and real-time data.

-

Understanding procurement context.
