Role Overview: We are seeking a passionate AI Engineer with 3+ years of experience building and deploying LLM-powered and agentic applications , particularly within AI or deep-tech companies. This role focuses on designing, building, and deploying AI agents and LLM-based systems — from RAG pipelines to conversational and task-executing agents — collaborating with cross-functional teams to craft client-specific solutions and drive measurable impact. The ideal candidate has strong backend engineering fundamentals combined with hands-on experience applying LLMs and agent frameworks to solve real-world problems, and a strong desire to learn and innovate. Key Responsibilities: Custom Solution Development: Design and implement custom AI agent / LLM-based applications to meet client requirements. (revised) Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure seamless integration of solutions into client systems. AI Application Engineering: Build and deploy LLM-powered applications — including RAG pipelines, tool-using agents, and conversational/non-conversational agents — as scalable, production-grade services. Design and implement evaluation frameworks (evals) to measure and improve agent/LLM output quality, reliability, and accuracy. Optimize latency, cost, and performance of LLM-based systems for real-world, client-facing use cases. Stay current with and apply emerging agent frameworks, LLM tooling, and retrieval/orchestration techniques (e.g., RAG, tool-calling, multi-agent workflows). Collaboration and Communication: Work closely with product managers, data scientists and engineers to deliver high-quality solutions. Ensure clear communication of technical designs and progress with stakeholders. Technical Skills: Good understanding of LLM application development — RAG, prompt design, agent/tool orchestration — and how to deploy these reliably in production. Strong backend development skills with experience in Python, Java or similar programming languages. Knowledge of data structures, data modeling, basic algorithms and object-oriented and functional design principles. Experience in working with cloud environments such as AWS, Google Cloud, Azure etc. Soft Skills: Strong problem-solving and analytical abilities. Eagerness to learn, innovate and deliver impactful results. Education: Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering or a related field. Advanced certifications in AI/ML are a plus. What We Offer: Opportunity to work on innovative AI projects with cutting-edge technologies. A collaborative, inclusive work environment that encourages learning and growth. Competitive compensation and benefits to support your career development.
