Position Summary
We are seeking a highly skilled T7 AI Engineer to join our engineering team in Hyderabad, India. This role combines hands-on AI/ML engineering with deep software development expertise to build, deploy, and operate production-grade AI systems at enterprise scale. You will design and implement AI-powered solutions — from LLM integrations and agentic workflows to ML pipelines and intelligent automation — while driving AI adoption and engineering excellence across teams.
Level: T7 (Senior Engineer)
Employment Type: Full-Time
AI/ML Engineering & Delivery
Design, build, and deploy production AI systems including RAG pipelines, agentic workflows, multi-model orchestration, and intelligent automation
Integrate large language model (LLM) APIs and AI/ML services into enterprise applications (GCP Vertex AI)
Implement and optimize prompt engineering strategies, fine-tuning pipelines, embeddings, and vector search solutions
Build and maintain AI orchestration workflows using frameworks such as LangChain, Semantic Kernel, AutoGen, CrewAI, or LlamaIndex
Develop custom AI agents, tools, and autonomous workflows that solve real business problems
Establish evaluation frameworks for AI systems — measuring accuracy, latency, cost, hallucination rates, and business outcomes
Full Stack Development & Integration
Build end-to-end AI-powered applications spanning frontend, backend, APIs, and data layers
Develop robust backend services using Python (FastAPI/Django) or Node.js to support AI workloads
Implement and optimize RESTful APIs, GraphQL endpoints, and event-driven integrations for AI services
Build modern frontend interfaces for AI-powered features using React, Angular, or Vue.js with TypeScript
Write clean, well-tested, production-ready code with a focus on maintainability and operational excellence
MLOps & AI Infrastructure
Design and implement MLOps/LLMOps pipelines for reliable model deployment, versioning, and lifecycle management
Configure and manage cloud-native AI infrastructure (AWS, GCP) including model serving, orchestration, and auto-scaling
Implement observability for AI systems — monitoring model drift, token costs, latency, throughput, and quality metrics
Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines for AI model deployment, automated testing, and continuous evaluation
Design for resilience: failover strategies, fallback models, circuit breakers, and graceful degradation
AI-Augmented Development
Leverage AI coding assistants (GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Claude, etc.) to dramatically accelerate development workflows
Use AI tools for code generation, refactoring, test writing, documentation, and code review
Develop and maintain custom AI-powered developer tools, automations, and internal platforms
Establish guardrails, security practices, and governance for responsible AI usage in engineering
Technical Documentation & Mentorship
Influence engineering culture by evangelizing AI-first development practices across teams
Train and upskill team members on effective use of AI tools, LLM integration patterns, and ML best practices
Contribute to internal knowledge bases, tech talks, and communities of practice
Partner with product, design, and data science teams to identify and deliver AI-driven opportunities
Participate in architecture reviews and design discussions, ensuring AI solutions are production-ready from day one
Required Qualifications
Experience: 8+ years of professional software engineering experience, with 2+ years focused on AI/ML solution development and delivery
Education: Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, AI/ML, or related field (or equivalent experience)
Strong understanding of large language model architectures, capabilities, and limitations
Proven track record building and deploying production AI systems (RAG, agents, fine-tuning, embeddings, vector search)
Proficiency with AI orchestration frameworks (LangChain, Semantic Kernel, AutoGen, CrewAI, LlamaIndex)
Hands-on experience with major LLM providers and platforms (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Vertex AI, AWS Bedrock)
Solid understanding of prompt engineering, evaluation methodologies, and AI safety/guardrails
Programming: Expert-level proficiency in Python; strong skills in at least one additional language (Java, TypeScript/Node.js, C#/.NET)
Cloud & Infrastructure: Hands-on experience deploying and operating AI workloads on cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure), containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), and CI/CD tooling (Jenkins, GitHub Actions)
Data: Proficiency with SQL and NoSQL databases, vector databases (Pinecone, Weaviate, pgvector, ChromaDB), and data pipeline tools
API Development: Proven track record building production APIs (REST, GraphQL, gRPC) and event-driven integrations
AI Tools Proficiency: Advanced daily usage of AI coding assistants with demonstrated impact on productivity and code quality
Testing: Strong testing practices for AI systems including model evaluation, integration testing, and automated quality checks
Communication: Excellent written and verbal communication skills with ability to explain complex AI concepts to diverse audiences
Experience building enterprise AI platforms serving multiple product teams
Familiarity with custom model training, fine-tuning (LoRA, QLoRA), and RLHF techniques
Experience with agent-based AI architectures and autonomous multi-step workflows
Knowledge of AI security concerns (prompt injection, data leakage, model poisoning) and mitigation strategies
Experience in regulated industries (insurance, finance, healthcare) with security and compliance requirements
Contributions to open-source AI/ML projects or published technical content
Cloud certifications (AWS Solutions Architect, GCP Professional Cloud Architect, or equivalent)
Experience with real-time inference, streaming responses, and low-latency AI serving architectures
