Position:

AI Engineer

Experience Required:

4-8 Years

Location:

Role Overview

We are looking for an AI Engineer to design, develop, and deliver production-ready Agentic AI and LLM-powered solutions. The role involves building intelligent AI agents capable of reasoning, planning, memory, task orchestration, tool utilization, retrieval, and multi-step workflow execution across enterprise applications and data sources. You will work hands-on with Python, AI agent frameworks, prompt engineering, MCP-integrated tools, RAG, enterprise APIs, evaluation, guardrails, and deployment to build reliable AI solutions.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design and build Agentic AI and multi-agent systems incorporating planning, reasoning, routing, memory, state management, and multi-step task execution.

  • Design, develop, and optimize LLM prompts to improve accuracy, reliability, and business outcomes.

  • Build agent workflows incorporating tool/function calling, structured outputs, routing and handoffs, retries, fallbacks, and human-in-the-loop patterns.

  • Develop and integrate MCP (Model Context Protocol) tools and agent-callable tools to connect AI agents with enterprise systems, APIs, databases, and data sources.

  • Design and implement RAG solutions, including chunking, embeddings, vector databases, retrieval, reranking, grounding, and context orchestration.

  • Build evaluation frameworks, evaluation sets, regression tests, and prompt-testing methodologies to measure and improve agent performance, quality, and reliability.

  • Implement guardrails, security controls, observability, tracing, and monitoring for production AI agents.

  • Optimize AI systems for cost and latency through model selection/routing, caching, batching, streaming, asynchronous execution, token management, and context management.

  • Support the deployment, monitoring, troubleshooting, and continuous improvement of AI agents and MCP-enabled workflows.

  • Integrate AI solutions with enterprise APIs, databases, and third-party systems.

  • Collaborate with stakeholders, product managers, architects, and engineering teams to translate business and operational requirements into AI-driven workflows and solutions.

  • Contribute to architecture reviews, technical design, and engineering best practices for AI platforms.

Required Qualifications

  • 4-8 years of overall software/AI engineering experience, including 1.5+ years building LLM and Agentic AI systems that reached production users.

  • Strong proficiency in Python, including experience developing production-quality AI/software solutions.

  • Experience with one or more Agentic AI frameworks such as LangGraph, LangChain, CrewAI, AutoGen, Semantic Kernel, OpenAI Agents SDK, or similar frameworks.

  • Strong understanding of agent concepts including planning and reasoning, tool/function calling, structured outputs, memory, state management, routing/handoffs, and multi-step execution.

  • Hands-on experience with MCP servers/tools, tool integration, API orchestration, or enterprise system connectivity.

  • Experience with RAG architectures, embeddings, vector databases, retrieval, reranking, grounding, and knowledge retrieval systems.

  • Experience working with LLM platforms/APIs such as OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Gemini, AWS Bedrock, or equivalent.

  • Experience evaluating and testing AI agents, prompts, and RAG systems using evaluation frameworks or custom evaluation approaches.

  • Understanding of AI guardrails, security, compliance, governance, and responsible AI practices.

  • Experience with cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure, or GCP and deployment/monitoring of AI solutions.

  • Experience integrating applications with enterprise APIs and databases.

  • Strong problem-solving, analytical, communication, and collaboration skills.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience building enterprise copilots, AI assistants, or autonomous agent ecosystems.

  • Experience with classical ML and MLOps practices, including XGBoost, Random Forest, gradient boosting, time-series forecasting, MLflow, feature stores, model monitoring, or retraining pipelines.

  • Experience fine-tuning or adapting open models such as Llama, Mistral, or Qwen, including LoRA/QLoRA, distillation, or serving with vLLM.

  • Experience with knowledge graphs, entity resolution, or graph-backed retrieval.

  • Data engineering experience with technologies such as Airflow/Dagster, dbt, Spark, Kafka, Snowflake, or Databricks.

  • Open-source contributions, published agent projects, or a public portfolio of working AI solutions.
