About the Job

Requirements

  • At least 5 years of experience in software engineering, data science, or machine-learning engineering, including substantial hands-on experience delivering GenAI/LLM projects in production.
  • Strong client-facing skills, including listening, explaining technical topics clearly, and providing strategic and technical consulting.
  • Demonstrated ability to prototype rapidly with proof-of-concepts and minimum viable products to validate business value.
  • Strong command of agentic systems and their capabilities.
  • Advanced technical knowledge of retrieval-augmented generation architectures, vector databases such as Vertex AI Vector Search and pgvector, and LLM orchestration frameworks such as LangChain, LlamaIndex, and ADK.
  • A rigorous engineering approach, including testing, continuous integration/continuous delivery, observability, and quantitative performance evaluation using methods such as RAGAS and LLM-as-judge.

Responsibilities

  • Immerse yourself in client teams to understand business processes, qualify high-value use cases, and translate operational challenges into technical specifications.
  • Rapidly prototype functional proofs-of-concept and minimum viable products alongside users to validate assumptions and accelerate time to market.
  • Select and compare models such as Gemini, Claude, Mistral, OpenAI models, and open-source models according to business constraints including cost, latency, accuracy, and confidentiality.
  • Design robust GenAI architectures, including advanced retrieval-augmented generation pipelines with chunking, embeddings, vector databases, and reranking; fine-tuning; and orchestration of agents and tools.
  • Industrialize and deploy solutions to production, including scaling, integrating with existing information systems through APIs and streaming, deploying to cloud platforms such as Google Cloud/Vertex AI and AWS, and building continuous integration/continuous delivery pipelines.
  • Ensure reliability and ongoing evaluation through testing frameworks, monitoring model drift, implementing security guardrails, and managing costs.
  • Support change management and client-team skill development during deployment and adoption.
  • Share knowledge through architecture-pattern documentation, training, and SFEIR publications.

Desired Qualifications

  • Experience with Google Cloud Platform, including Vertex AI, Cloud Run, Gemini, and BigQuery; AWS; or Scaleway.
  • Knowledge of fine-tuning, quantization, and deployment of open-source models using tools such as vLLM and Hugging Face.
  • Experience with multi-agent architectures and interoperability protocols such as MCP.
  • Foundational data-engineering knowledge, including pipelines, orchestration, and data quality.
  • Open-source contributions, talks, or certifications.
