• Design, configure, and build agentic AI systems that can reason, plan, use tools, execute workflows, and interact with enterprise systems.
• Develop scalable software applications and services using modern cloud-native architectures.
• Integrate large language models, APIs, databases, vector stores, and orchestration frameworks into production-ready applications.
• Build and maintain AI-enabled workflows using agent frameworks such as LangChain, LangGraph, LlamaIndex, Semantic Kernel, AutoGen, or similar technologies.
• Implement retrieval-augmented generation patterns, including document ingestion, chunking, embedding generation, vector search, reranking, and response generation.
• Partner with data science and ML teams to operationalize machine learning models and AI capabilities into software products.
• Apply MLOps practices for model deployment, monitoring, versioning, evaluation, governance, and continuous improvement.
• Develop reusable components, APIs, services, and integration patterns to accelerate AI solution delivery.
• Define and implement robust cloud architectures, preferably on AWS, using serverless, containerized, or microservices-based approaches.
• Implement observability, logging, monitoring, error handling, and performance optimization for AI and ML-enabled applications.
• Evaluate and improve agent performance, including prompt quality, tool selection, response accuracy, latency, cost, and reliability.
