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.

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.
