Job Summary:

We are looking for an experienced Agentic Pipeline Engineer to design, develop, and operationalize AI-driven pipelines and agentic workflows. The ideal candidate will have strong hands-on experience in Python, Generative AI, LLM applications, agent frameworks, APIs, and cloud-based AI solutions, along with a good understanding of production-grade software engineering practices.

The role involves building intelligent multi-step workflows where AI agents can reason, interact with enterprise systems, use tools/APIs, retrieve relevant information, and execute tasks reliably.

 Responsibilities:

• Design and develop Agentic AI pipelines and workflows using Large Language Models (LLMs).

• Build single-agent and multi-agent solutions for complex business use cases.

• Develop reusable components for tool calling, orchestration, prompt management, memory, routing, and workflow execution.

• Implement RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) pipelines integrating enterprise data sources with LLM applications.

• Integrate agents with REST APIs, databases, vector stores, enterprise applications, and external tools.

• Build scalable backend services and APIs using Python and frameworks such as FastAPI.

• Work with agentic frameworks such as LangGraph, LangChain, Semantic Kernel, AutoGen, or equivalent frameworks.

• Develop and optimize embedding, retrieval, chunking, reranking, and vector-search pipelines.

• Implement appropriate guardrails, validation, error handling, observability, logging, and evaluation for GenAI applications.

• Optimize agent workflows for accuracy, latency, reliability, and cost.

• Containerize and deploy AI services using Docker and CI/CD practices.

• Collaborate with architects, engineering teams, data scientists, and business stakeholders to translate use cases into production-ready Agentic AI solutions.

• Perform unit testing, integration testing, troubleshooting, and production support for AI pipelines. 

Mandatory skill sets:

• 3–7 years of software engineering / AI engineering experience.

• Strong programming experience in Python.

• Hands-on understanding of Generative AI and Large Language Models.

• Experience developing LLM-based applications and agentic workflows.

• Strong understanding of RAG architecture and vector-based retrieval.

• Experience with Vector Databases / Search, such as FAISS, Pinecone, Weaviate, Chroma, Azure AI Search, or equivalent.

• Experience integrating REST APIs, databases, and enterprise applications.

• Knowledge of prompt engineering, tool/function calling, structured outputs, embeddings, and context management.

Preferred skill sets:

Knowledge of frameworks such as: 

LangGraph

Microsoft Semantic Kernel

AutoGen or similar agent frameworks

Experience with Git, Docker, CI/CD, and API development.
