POSITION OVERVIEW :

• Title: GenAI / Agentic AI Engineer (Production Operations)
• Goal: Build and deploy secure agentic AI solutions that diagnose, remediate, and optimize large-scale production environments while reducing operational risk, support effort, and cost
• Agentic AI Systems Engineering Proven ability to design and productionize tool-calling LLM agents with RAG, secure action execution, guardrails, evaluation frameworks, and integrations into operational systems.
• Design and implement agentic AI systems using retrieval, structured reasoning, function calling, policy enforcement, and MCP-based integrations.
• Productionize LLM-powered applications with evaluation pipelines, monitoring, response validation, self-correction, and continuous improvement mechanisms.
• Integrate AI agents with observability, incident management, deployment, and production support ecosystems.
• Build RAG architectures including knowledge curation, data quality validation, retrieval optimization, and feedback loops.
• Implement governance controls including validator models, adversarial testing, deterministic fallbacks, rollback strategies, and auditability.
• Optimize AI platform performance, scalability, latency, and cost through model routing, caching, context management, batching, streaming, and parallel execution.
• Software Engineering Experience 5+ years developing production-grade applications in Python, C/C++, Go, or Java; strong hands-on Python experience preferred.
• Production ML Systems 3+ years designing, deploying, monitoring, and maintaining production ML systems including serving, evaluation, pipelines, and model lifecycle management.
• Agentic AI Development Experience building tool-using AI agents with function calling, secure tool execution, orchestration, and automated workflows.
• RAG Architecture Hands-on implementation of retrieval pipelines, vector search, knowledge management, prompt synthesis, and retrieval optimization.
• LLM Engineering Practical experience integrating and adapting LLMs through APIs, prompt engineering, evaluation, and application development.
• Multi-Model Expertise Working knowledge of commercial and open-source models such as OpenAI, Gemini, Claude, Llama, and Qwen.
• AI Safety & Governance Experience implementing guardrails, policy enforcement, validation layers, risk controls, monitoring, and compliance mechanisms.
• Systems Integration Ability to connect AI services with operational platforms, observability tooling, incident workflows, and deployment ecosystems.
• Data Structures & ML Foundations Strong understanding of algorithms, statistics, ML concepts, and efficient system design.
• Production Ownership Demonstrated problem-solving, collaboration, communication, and delivery of measurable business outcomes in complex environments
• AWS Cloud Expertise Experience with ECS, EKS, Lambda, S3, DynamoDB, Redshift, Step Functions, SageMaker, and cloud-native architectures.
• Infrastructure as Code Experience using Terraform or CloudFormation for repeatable deployments.
• Containerization & Distributed Systems Experience operating scalable containerized workloads in production environments.
• Technical Leadership Experience mentoring engineers, leading design reviews, and driving engineering standards
