This is a role where you will tackle exciting challenges across the entire stack. You won't just be writing code; you will be a key contributor to architectural decisions, product strategy, and the overall technical direction of our AI-powered initiatives.

  • AI & ML Development: Design, train, and deploy a variety of AI solutions, including classical machine learning models (classification, regression, clustering) and advanced Generative AI workflows.
  • Agentic Systems: Develop and productionalize AI agents capable of multi-step reasoning, tool-use, and integration with external APIs.
  • Software Integration: Architect and build production-ready code to integrate AI/ML models into user-facing applications via RESTful APIs and microservices.
  • Pipeline Engineering: Build and maintain scalable data and ML pipelines to automate model training, deployment, and versioning.
  • MLOps & Governance: Implement model monitoring and governance frameworks to track performance, drift, and reliability in production.
  • Cloud Engineering: Utilize GCP services to build, host, and scale AI applications in a serverless or containerized environment.
  • Collaboration: Work within an Agile framework, collaborating closely with Product Managers and other engineers to deliver business value for our commercial customers.

Required Skills & Experience

  • Education: Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science, Data Science, Statistics, or a related technical field.
  • Experience: 3+ years of professional experience in AI/ML engineering or Software Engineering with a focus on model deployment.
  • Core ML Knowledge: Strong foundation in machine learning theory and practical experience with libraries such as scikit-learn, XGBoost, or PyTorch/TensorFlow.
  • GenAI Stack: Hands-on experience with LLMs and orchestration frameworks (e.g., LangChain, LlamaIndex, or AutoGen).
  • GCP Proficiency: Working knowledge of Google Cloud Platform, specifically Vertex AI, BigQuery, and Cloud Run.
  • Software Engineering: Proficiency in Python and a solid understanding of software best practices, including API design, Git version control, and unit testing.
  • Preferred Requirements:
  • Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Experience with Terraform for provisioning and managing cloud infrastructure.
  • CI/CD Pipelines: Experience with Tekton or similar cloud-native CI/CD frameworks for automating ML workflows.
  • Production Experience: Proven track record of taking an AI agent or ML model from a prototype to a stable, monitored production environment.
  • Communication: Excellent verbal and written communication skills with the ability to explain technical concepts to non-technical partners.
  • Attitude: A strong desire for continuous learning and upskilling in the rapidly evolving AI landscape.
