ROLE SUMMARY
We’re looking for a hands\-on Agentic AI Engineer to build, optimize, and deploy production\-grade AI solutions. In this role, you will be the engine room of our AI initiatives — taking architectural blueprints and turning them into scalable, functional systems. You will work across the full build lifecycle — from prototyping to production — collaborating with Senior Architects and data scientists to deliver AI solutions in a consulting environment.
Role: Agentic AI Engineer
Experience: 2–5 years
Employment Type: Full\-time
WHAT YOU'LL DO
Agentic Development
- Build: Develop LLM\-based applications and multi\-step agentic workflows using frameworks such as Microsoft Agent Framework, AutoGen, LangChain, LangGraph, LlamaIndex, or CrewAI
- RAG Pipelines: Implement Retrieval\-Augmented Generation pipelines: chunking, embedding, vector search, and re\-ranking
- Tool Use \& Memory: Build agents with tool\-calling, short/long\-term memory, and human\-in\-the\-loop checkpoints
- Prompt Engineering: Design and iterate on system prompts, chain\-of\-thought templates, and structured output schemas
- Model Fine\-tuning: Execute fine\-tuning and optimization tasks (Quantization, PEFT/LoRA) to adapt foundation models for specific domain tasks
Integration \& Delivery
- APIs: Expose AI capabilities via FastAPI endpoints; integrate with client data sources and third\-party APIs
- Vector Databases: Manage embeddings and retrieval using Pinecone, Qdrant, or pgvector
MLOps \& Productionization
- Deployment: Containerize and deploy AI services using Docker and Kubernetes on AWS / Azure cloud environments, ensuring high availability and low latency
- Observability: Implement observability for AI systems using LangSmith or Arize Phoenix, tracking accuracy, hallucinations, cost, and latency
- CI/CD: Maintain CI/CD pipelines for ML, ensuring automated testing (unit, contract, and model\-quality tests) is integrated into the delivery workflow
- Guardrails \& Hallucination Control: Apply output validation, guardrails, and hallucination\-detection techniques to ensure reliable, production\-safe AI outputs
- Token Optimization: Apply prompt compression, context window management, and response caching to control inference cost and latency
Collaboration
- Client Delivery: Work closely with Senior Architects and Engagement Managers to translate business requirements into technical tasks and working solutions
- Code Quality: Write clean, modular Python; participate in peer code reviews and contribute to the team’s internal library of reusable AI patterns and playbooks
MUST\-HAVE QUALIFICATIONS
- Experience: 2–5 years in software engineering, data engineering, or ML; at least 1 year building LLM/Gen AI applications
- Python: Strong Python skills — OOP, async programming, packaging, and testing
- LLM Frameworks: Hands\-on experience with at least one of: LangChain, LangGraph, CrewAI, AutoGen, or LlamaIndex
- Gen AI: Working knowledge of LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Gemini) and prompt design
- Cloud Basics: Familiarity with AWS or Azure; comfortable with REST APIs and Git\-based workflows
- MLOps \& Productionization: Hands\-on experience deploying, monitoring, and maintaining AI systems in production — Docker/Kubernetes, CI/CD pipelines, and observability tooling are non\-negotiable
- Engineering Fundamentals: Solid SQL skills, API design experience (FastAPI/Flask), and a “software engineering first” approach to ML — encompassing testing, modularity, and documentation
- Education: B.Tech / B.E. / M.Sc. in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field
GOOD TO HAVE
- Evaluation: Exposure to G\-Eval, RAGAS, TruLens, or LangSmith for quantifying LLM output quality
- MLOps: Basic experience with MLflow or DVC for experiment tracking
- Structured Outputs: Experience with Pydantic\-based output parsing and function/tool calling
- Performance Tuning: Knowledge of vLLM or Triton Inference Server for high\-throughput model serving
- Certifications: AWS / Azure AI Fundamentals or equivalent cloud certification
