## About the Role

We are seeking an AI Engineer with a proven ability to design, develop, and deploy transformative AI and machine learning solutions., * Strong Python engineering practice. This isn't a notebook-only role, you ship code that runs in production

 * Proven experience deploying ML/AI systems end-to-end, not just building models in isolation
 * Comfortable owning architecture decisions and defending them in front of technical and business stakeholders
 * Curiosity and autonomy. Our internal R&D moves fast and rewards people who take ownership

## Description

* Model development & MLOps: training/fine-tuning pipelines, experiment tracking (MLflow, Weights & Biases), CI/CD for models, model registries, monitoring and drift detection in production
 * LLM & GenAI systems: RAG architectures, vector databases (pgvector, Pinecone, Qdrant, Weaviate), embedding strategies, prompt engineering and evaluation harnesses, agent frameworks (LangChain, LlamaIndex, or comparable), MCP server design and tool-calling architectures
 * Infrastructure: containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), IaC (Terraform), CI/CD pipelines (GitLab CI, GitHub Actions), at least one major cloud's ML stack (Azure ML, AWS SageMaker, or GCP Vertex AI)
 * Data engineering fundamentals: orchestration (Airflow, Dagster), transformation (dbt, Spark), API design (REST/GraphQL) for serving models and agents into client systems
 * Governance: familiarity with AI governance/compliance considerations relevant to regulated sectors (finance, insurance), audit trails, explainability, data lineage
