This role sits at the intersection of AI engineering and risk management, focusing on embedding controls, governance, and risk intelligence directly into GenAI systems ("control as code"). You will lead the development of production-grade GenAI solutions, leveraging technologies such as LLMs, RAG architectures, vector databases, and modern cloud-native frameworks, while ensuring scalability, reliability, and responsible AI practices. Our Impact At Freddie Mac, our mission of Making Home Possible drives everything we do. As we advance into an AI-powered future, we are transforming how risk management is designed, implemented, and scaled-moving from manual processes to intelligent, automated, and embedded risk capabilities. This role is part of a next-generation initiative to reimagine risk management through GenAI and automation, where controls are engineered into systems, not just documented. Your Impact In this role, you will design and implement scalable GenAI applications, AI agents, and agentic workflows to solve complex business challenges, while building and optimizing RAG pipelines, vector search solutions, and multi-modal AI integrations. You will develop Python-based microservices and APIs, lead automation framework design, and ensure efficient deployment and high system performance. A key differentiator is embedding risk and control mechanisms directly into GenAI workflows, translating regulatory requirements into scalable code, and partnering with Risk, Security, and Governance teams. You will also design feature engineering and data pipelines, establish feedback loops for continuous improvement, and collaborate with cross-functional teams while providing technical leadership. Success in this role requires engineering excellence, technical depth in Python and AI/ML frameworks, data readiness, a risk-aware mindset, and a commitment to innovation in emerging AI technologies. ## Related Videos - [Microservices: how to get started with Spring Boot and Kubernetes](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/242-microservices-how-to-get-started-with-spring-boot-and-kubernetes) - [Machine learning in the browser with TensorFlowjs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/155-machine-learning-in-the-browser-with-tensorflowjs) - [Agentic employees in world's most downloaded FinTech app](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100123-agentic-employees-in-world-s-most-downloaded-fintech-app) - [Cloud Chaos and Microservices Mayhem](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/104-cloud-chaos-and-microservices-mayhem) - [How We Built a Machine Learning-Based Recommendation System (And Survived to Tell the Tale)](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/752-how-we-built-a-machine-learning-based-recommendation-system-and-survived-to-tell-the-tale) - [Navigating the AI Revolution in Software Development](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1266-navigating-the-ai-revolution-in-software-development) ## Related Articles - [How to Become an AI Engineer](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/331-how-to-become-an-ai-engineer) - [MLOps And AI Driven Development](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/82-mlops-and-ai-driven-development) - [What Are Large Language Models?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/304-what-are-large-language-models) - [MLOps – What’s the deal behind it?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/125-mlops-what-s-the-deal-behind-it) - [What is Agentic Programming and Why Should Developers Care?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/625-what-is-agentic-programming-and-why-should-developers-care) - [Graph and AI Trends 2026: Why Is AI Running but Not Yet Delivering?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/680-graph-and-ai-trends-2026-why-is-ai-running-but-not-yet-delivering)
