  • Familiarity with multi-agent GenAI solutions that incorporate agentic behaviors using A2A and MCP protocols.
  • Experience with vector databases (e.g., Pinecone, ChromaDB), embedding models, and RAG pipelines.
  • Experience in retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipelines, hybrid search strategies, and embedding optimization.
  • Experience with DevOps/MLOps practices, CI/CD pipelines, and version control systems.
  • Proven ability to lead cross-functional AI initiatives, including PoC development, stakeholder alignment, and enterprise rollout.
  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to translate complex technical concepts to business stakeholders.
