• Research, evaluate, and apply Generative AI models across a variety of use cases.
• Run benchmarks across different LLMs and generative models to compare quality, latency, cost, and reliability.
• Design and execute fine-tuning workflows to improve model performance for target tasks and domains.
• Build experimentation frameworks for testing prompts, model architectures, datasets, and inference strategies.
• Optimize models and pipelines for accuracy, efficiency, and lower operational cost.
• Analyze model outputs and identify opportunities to improve precision, consistency, and scalability.
• Collaborate with product, engineering, and leadership teams to translate business needs into AI solutions.
• Stay current with the latest developments in LLMs, multimodal models, fine-tuning methods, evaluation frameworks, and model optimization techniques.
• Support deployment of models into production environments with attention to performance, monitoring, and continuous improvement.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Data Science, or a related technical field. 
• 3+ years of software engineering experience, including at least 1 year of hands-on experience in AI and machine learning.
• Strong understanding of Generative AI, including large language models, transformer architectures, embeddings, prompting, retrieval, and fine-tuning methods.
• Hands-on experience applying foundation models such as OpenAI, open-source LLMs, or other generative AI systems.
• Experience running benchmarks and evaluations across multiple models using defined metrics.
• Practical knowledge of fine-tuning, instruction tuning, parameter-efficient tuning, or related techniques.
• Strong programming skills in Python and familiarity with modern ML/AI frameworks.
• Experience with tools and libraries such as PyTorch, Hugging Face, LangChain/LlamaIndex, vector databases, and model evaluation frameworks.
• Ability to work in a fast-paced environment and independently drive experiments from concept to conclusion.
• Strong analytical thinking and problem-solving skills.
• Excellent communication skills and ability to work closely with senior leadership.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience building or optimizing cost-efficient AI systems for production use.
• Familiarity with inference optimization, quantization, distillation, caching, or model compression techniques.
• Experience with RAG systems, data pipelines, and evaluation of retrieval quality.
• Exposure to GPU-based training/inference workflows and cloud infrastructure.
• Experience working in startups or highly iterative product environments.
• Understanding of trade-offs between model quality, latency, and cost.

What Success Looks Like

• You help advance Maira-2 into a model that delivers strong performance with superior cost efficiency.
• You create reliable benchmarking processes that guide model and architecture decisions.
• You identify practical ways to improve output quality while reducing inference and training costs.
• You contribute directly to turning AI research and experimentation into scalable product capabilities.
