Job Description

Senior Lead – AI Engineering (LangGraph / Haystack / RAG Systems)

Location: India (Remote / Hybrid)

Experience: 8–12 Years

Department: AI & Data Engineering

Reports To: Director – AI & Platform Engineering

About Codvo.ai

At Codvo.ai, we are building NeIO — an AI-native enterprise platform powering intelligent operations across industries like Oil & Gas, Mortgage, and Legal. NeIO fuses Data Engineering, AI Agents, and MLOps into production-ready, auditable systems that drive real business outcomes. You’ll lead a Fusion Team — blending data engineers, AI developers, and domain experts — to design scalable, explainable, and high-performance AI workflows that bring automation to life.

As Senior Lead – AI Engineering, you will own the end-to-end architecture, delivery, and optimization of enterprise RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) and agentic systems. You will lead a small team of AI engineers to build and deploy LangGraph, Haystack, and FastAPI-based pipelines that extract, enrich, and reason over unstructured data.

This role combines technical leadership, hands-on development, and system design — ensuring every AI service meets enterprise-grade standards of performance, reliability, and governance.

Key Responsibilities

• Architect & Lead: Design and oversee RAG pipelines using LangGraph, Haystack, LangChain, and OpenAI APIs for NeIO applications.
• Mentor & Guide: Manage a team of 3–5 AI engineers; perform code reviews, pair programming, and architecture reviews.
• Build & Integrate: Develop FastAPI-based microservices and vectorized retrieval layers (Qdrant, FAISS, Pinecone).
• Optimize & Scale: Tune embedding quality, latency, and retrieval precision across multi-tenant data lakes.
• Collaborate with Data & GIS Teams: Integrate structured and spatial data using PostGIS, QGIS, GeoPandas.
• Implement Governance: Establish model observability, explainability metrics, and audit trails.
• Drive Delivery: Translate business workflows (e.g., LeaseOps, Recon) into AI automation pipelines with measurable ROI.
• Evangelize Open Source AI: Advocate for enterprise-grade, open-source-first design principles.
