Key Responsibilities:

1. Hands-On Execution (The "What")
- Model Development: Build, train, and evaluate ML and GenAI models, taking them from experimentation to production with guidance from senior engineers.
- Pipelines: Implement and maintain data and inference pipelines, ensuring they meet reliability and latency targets.
- Collaboration: Work closely with senior architects and engineers, contributing to code reviews and learning production best practices.

2. Predictive AI & Scale (The "Fast")
- Fraud at Scale: Contribute to our Fraud Risk Management (FRM) system, building features and models for streaming inference using Flink/Spark.
- Feature Store: Help build and maintain features that serve both high-velocity transactional data and dense vector embeddings.
- Optimization: Profile and optimize model serving to improve throughput on our GPU clusters.

3. Generative & Agentic AI (The "Smart")
- AI Agents: Support the development of AI Agents that navigate banking interfaces, execute refunds, and detect social engineering attacks.
- LLM Fine-Tuning:



Assist in fine-tuning SLMs (Small Language Models) on secured financial data for edge deployment.
- Safety Guardrails: Implement guardrails and evaluations that prevent hallucination in critical financial advice.

The Ideal Candidate Profile : You are a hands-on builder.

• You love to code, you are curious about how things work end-to-end, and you are eager to grow into a scale-veteran engineer.

• Essential Experience (3+ Years)
- Dual Exposure: Hands-on experience in Classic ML AND/OR Modern GenAI (LLMs/Agents).

• Bonus if you have shipped either type of system to production.

• Scale Curiosity: Experience working with production systems and a solid desire to understand high-throughput, distributed computing.

• Deep Learning Fundamentals: Solid grasp of ML/DL fundamentals and the underlying math.

• Familiarity with Transformers or GNNs is a plus.

• Collaboration: Comfortable working in cross-functional team
