Job Description

Role: Senior Python AI Engineer
Location: Remote (US)
Job Type: W2 Contract
Experience Required: 10+ years
JD:
-Knowledge Base Infrastructure
We are hiring a Python Platform Engineer to operate and evolve the infrastructure behind an enterprise knowledge base platform that is moving from a Confluence-focused RAG chatbot into a broader agentic knowledge system. Today, the platform supports Confluence/GitHub ingestion chunking pgvector RAG retrieval FastAPI serving. Over the next phase, we are expanding toward hybrid retrieval (vector + sparse + graph), multi-source ingestion, evaluation pipelines, agent infrastructure, harness and shared chat platform primitives.
What You'll Own:
  • Architect and implement backend services in Python 3.11, FastAPI, Pydantic, SQLAlchemy async, and asyncpg
  • Design retrieval and orchestration trade-offs around quality, latency, cost, safety, and operational simplicity
  • Build production-grade agent runtime capabilities: memory boundaries, tool sandboxing, permissions, and budget controls
  • Improve answer grounding, failure analysis, and citation enforcement rather than optimizing for demo behavior
  • Create observability and operational feedback loops with OpenTelemetry, PrometheGrafana, Docker/Helm, and GitHub Actions
  • Work closely with product and engineering partners to support multiple conversational surfaces through one knowledge platform
  • Ingestion infrastructure across current and future content sources
  • Observability across application, pipeline, database, and model-serving behavior
  • Cost, latency, throughput, and failure-mode management for AI-heavy workloads
  • Release workflows that validate AI behavior changes, not just code compilation
Qualifications:
  • Strong hands-on experience with Python in platform, automation, or infrastructure-heavy environments
  • Experience building CLI tools using Python, Golang or Rust.
  • Hands-on experience with LangGraph, LangChain, pgvector, and modern retrieval pipelines
  • Experience designing evaluation frameworks for LLM-backed systems, including regression detection and quality measurement
  • Strong experience with Docker, Helm, GitHub Actions, and Kubernetes-oriented workflows
  • Familiarity with the operational characteristics of embedding pipelines, vector search, and LLM-backed systems
  • Strong observability skills across metrics, tracing, dashboards, alerting, and log analysis
  • Experience with ingestion, ETL, or content-processing pipelines at scale
  • Ability to think in terms of reliability, cost, latency, throughput, and recovery
Nice to Have:
  • Experience with Qdrant, Neo4j, or other vector/graph infrastructure
  • Experience supporting RAG, search, evaluation, or agent platforms
  • Experience in enterprise or regulated environments
  • Familiarity with Vault, Splunk, Artifactory, ECR
  • Comfort using AI-assisted engineering workflows in day-to-day work
