Key Responsibilities

AI & LLM Architecture Strategy

• Define and lead the enterprise architecture for Generative AI solutions.
• Design scalable, secure, and cost-efficient LLM-based systems.
• Evaluate and select foundation models (Open-source / Commercial APIs).
• Define governance, safety, and compliance standards for AI usage.

Large Language Model & RAG Systems

• Architect and implement Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines.
• Design vector search architecture using embedding models and vector databases.
• Lead fine-tuning strategies (LoRA, PEFT, full fine-tuning).
• Optimize inference performance using quantization and model distillation.
• Drive prompt engineering standards and reusable prompt frameworks.

Intelligent Search & Recommendation Systems

• Architect semantic search, dense retrieval, and ranking pipelines.
• Improve personalization and contextual recommendation engines.
• Define evaluation metrics such as NDCG, Recall, CTR, Perplexity, and Latency.

AI Platform & MLOps

• Design end-to-end ML lifecycle pipelines (training, validation, deployment).
• Implement CI/CD for ML workflows.
• Establish model monitoring, observability, and retraining frameworks.
• Ensure scalability using Docker, Kubernetes, and distributed systems.

Cloud & Infrastructure

• Architect AI solutions on AWS, GCP, or Azure.
• Design GPU infrastructure strategy and cost optimization models.
• Work with distributed training and inference architectures.

Data Strategy & Governance

• Define data architecture for training and retrieval pipelines.
• Ensure data quality, compliance, and privacy standards.
• Collaborate with Data Engineering to build scalable feature stores.

Leadership & Stakeholder Engagement

• Lead cross-functional AI initiatives across Engineering, Product, and Business.
• Present architectural designs to executive stakeholders.
• Mentor AI/ML engineers and drive best practices.

Required Technical Qualifications

• 8+ years of experience in Software Engineering / ML / AI.
• 3+ years of hands-on experience in Generative AI and LLM systems.
• Strong expertise in Python and deep learning frameworks (PyTorch / TensorFlow).
• Deep experience with Transformer architectures (BERT, GPT-family, encoder/decoder models).
• Hands-on experience with:
• Hugging Face
• LangChain
• LlamaIndex
• Vector databases (FAISS, Pinecone, Milvus, Weaviate)
• Strong knowledge of RAG system design and dense retrieval architectures.
• Experience designing production-grade search or recommendation systems.
• Expertise in cloud platforms (AWS/GCP/Azure).
• Experience with MLOps tools (MLFlow, Kubeflow, Docker, Kubernetes).
• Strong understanding of system design, distributed computing, and scalable architecture.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with model quantization and optimization (ONNX, TensorRT).
• Knowledge of Responsible AI, fairness, bias mitigation, and governance frameworks.
• Experience building multi-modal AI systems (text + vision).
• Exposure to enterprise AI adoption strategy.
