Background
The team is seeking anAI/ML Engineer to build and operationalize AI solutions across RAG, agentic workflows, knowledge graphs, and machine learning. The role is hands-on and spans experimentation, backend development, deployment, evaluation, and production support.
What You Will Do
- Design and build RAG and agentic AI solutions from prototype through production
- Develop AI workflows using Python, LangGraph, LangChain, or comparable frameworks
- Build backend services and APIs using FastAPI, REST APIs, and containerized deployment patterns
- Develop retrieval pipelines covering ingestion, embeddings, indexing, retrieval, reranking, grounding, and citations
- Support GraphRAG and knowledge graph use cases that combine structured and unstructured information
- Build and maintain data and AI pipelines using Databricks
- Integrate AI applications with Azure and enterprise services, including identity, security, logging, and monitoring
- Evaluate solution quality using retrieval metrics, RAG evaluations, LLM-based evaluation, and human review
- Collaborate with engineers, architects, product teams, and domain specialists to move use cases into production
- Support technical documentation, troubleshooting, optimization, and post-production improvements
What You Will Bring
- 3+ years of relevant software, data, machine learning, or AI engineering experience
- Strong programming capability in Python and experience building production APIs or backend services
