Roles & Responsibilities

This role is for a hands-on AI/ML Engineer who will design, build, and deploy productiongrade Machine Learning and Generative AI solutions. The candidate must have strong Python expertise and practical experience taking ML and GenAI use cases from development to deployment.

The role focuses heavily on LLM-based applications, including prompt engineering, document processing pipelines, and embedding-based search solutions. The engineer will work with both structured and unstructured data, building pipelines for document extraction, parsing, and chunking, and integrating ML models with Vector Databases and MongoDB.

An ideal candidate is someone who understands end-to-end ML workflows from data preparation, tagging, and labeling, through model training, evaluation, and fine-tuning while ensuring solutions are scalable, high quality, and production ready., * Design and implement AI/ML solutions using Python and modern ML frameworks

 * Develop and optimize Prompt Engineering strategies for LLM-based systems
 * Build and deploy Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines
 * Integrate LLMs via APIs (Azure OpenAI preferred) into enterprise applications
 * Develop and orchestrate Agent ic AI workflows with tool/function calling
 * Implement vector search solutions using Vector Databases
 * Ensure CI/CD integration and cloud deployment (Azure preferred)
 * Establish observability, monitoring, and evaluation frameworks for AI systems
 * Collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver production-ready AI features

Generic Managerial Skills, If any

 * Ability to explain complex ML / GenAI concepts to nontechnical stakeholders and collaborate effectively with crossfunctional teams.
 * Strong analytical thinking to break down ambiguous business problems into workable ML or GenAI solutions.
