Job Title: Senior GenAI Architect / Lead Agentic AI & LLM Platforms
Location: Chennai
Experience: 8+ years (with 3+ years in GenAI/LLM ecosystems)
Role Overview
- We are looking for a highly experienced, hands-on GenAI Architect/Lead to drive enterprise-wide adoption of Generative AI and building Agentic AI solutions. This role combines deep technical expertise, solution architecture to enable GenAI-led transformation across the SDLC and business workflows.
- You will work closely with engineering teams, architects, product owners, and leadership to design and implement scalable, production-grade GenAI systems, while also acting as a thought leader and change agent for GenAI adoption.
Key Responsibilities Technical Leadership & Delivery
- Lead a team of GenAI developers and backend engineers to deliver enterprise GenAI applications and accelerators.
- Translate business requirements into technical designs, work breakdown, implementation plans, and engineering tasks.
- Review architecture, code, prompt design, RAG pipeline design, data model, API design, and integration approaches.
- Ensure quality, performance, security, maintainability, observability, cost efficiency, and production readiness.
Advanced RAG, Semantic Search & Knowledge Architecture
- Design and optimize RAG pipelines including ingestion, chunking, metadata extraction, embeddings, vector indexing, hybrid retrieval, re-ranking, citation generation, and answer synthesis.
- Implement semantic search across structured, semi-structured, and unstructured knowledge sources.
- Integrate with enterprise knowledge repositories such as SharePoint, Confluence, S3, Google Drive, databases, ITSM tools, and document management systems.
- Define knowledge freshness, access-controlled retrieval, lineage, deduplication, feedback loops, and retrieval quality improvement mechanisms.
Agentic AI & MCP-based Tool Integration
- Design and implement agentic workflows using LangGraph, LangChain, CrewAI, AutoGen, LlamaIndex, or equivalent.
- Implement tool calling, memory, workflow state, human-in-the-loop approval, API actions, and secure execution boundaries.
- Build or guide MCP server implementations for secure agent-to-tool and LLM-to-enterprise-system integration.
- Evaluate A2A communication patterns for multi-agent collaboration, delegation,
and hand-offs where relevant.
Backend, API, Data & Event-Driven Engineering
- Build scalable services using Python, FastAPI, Node.js, Java, or similar technologies.
- Design REST APIs and microservices for LLM orchestration, semantic search, ingestion, agent execution, feedback, and evaluation.
- Use SQL and NoSQL databases for application metadata, session history, audit logs, feedback, configurations, and workflow state.
- Design Redis caching patterns for session state, memory, rate limiting, token optimization, retrieval caching, distributed locks, and workflow continuity.
- Design asynchronous workflows using Kafka, RabbitMQ, Azure Service Bus, AWS SQS/SNS, Google Pub/Sub, or equivalent, including retry, DLQ, idempotency, ordering, and schema management.
Evaluation, Observability, Security & Governance
- Implement LLM tracing, prompt/version tracking, token usage monitoring, latency tracking, cost monitoring, and feedback analytics.
- Define evaluation datasets and metrics for faithfulness, groundedness, answer relevance, context relevance, hallucination rate, toxicity, latency, and cost.
- Use LangSmith, Langfuse, RAGAS, DeepEval, TruLens, Promptfoo, OpenTelemetry, Grafana, Prometheus, ELK, Datadog, or equivalent.
- Implement guardrails against prompt injection, jailbreaks, data leakage, unauthorized tool execution, toxic responses, and privacy violations.
- Support AI-assisted SDLC adoption using GitHub Copilot, Codex, CursorAI, Claude Code, Cline, or similar tools.
