Overview

Senior Associate - AI - ML Engineer

Responsibilities

• Deploy, manage and scale AI systems, as well as support model activity and deployment infrastructure in cloud environments
• Work with infrastructure and application development teams, data engineers, and model owners, to better integrate the AI applications into mainstream enterprise applications.
• Put into production the ML models keeping in mind the scalability, optimization, resource availability, and security for the AI solution. Educational Requirements
• University (Degree) Preferred
• Design and implement end-to-end Generative AI solutions that address complex business challenges, with a strong focus on scalability, reliability, and production readiness.
• Build and maintain Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines by integrating vector databases such as Pinecone, Weaviate, and FAISS with embedding models and large language models (LLMs) to deliver context-aware, knowledge-grounded responses at scale.
• Develop and optimize prompting strategies, templates, and workflows that maximize LLM accuracy, consistency, and performance across diverse use cases and user scenarios.
• Customize and fine-tune foundation models using techniques such as supervised fine-tuning (SFT), reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF), and parameter-efficient methods including LoRA and QLoRA to meet domain-specific performance requirements.
• Establish and maintain rigorous model evaluation frameworks that measure accuracy, latency, cost-efficiency, hallucination rates, and task-specific metrics, conducting A/B testing and comparative analysis to drive informed model selection and configuration decisions.
• Implement comprehensive observability and monitoring systems - including logging, tracing, and alerting - to continuously track model behavior, prompt-response patterns, token consumption, error rates, and performance drift in production environments.
• Design and deploy production-grade AI agents leveraging both low-code platforms and custom high-code implementations, balancing flexibility, maintainability, and performance to meet evolving business needs.
• Integrate a broad range of AI and ML capabilities - including natural language processing, computer vision, document intelligence, and traditional machine learning models - to build holistic, multi-modal solutions that solve complex problems.
• Continuously evaluate the rapidly evolving AI landscape, proactively researching and adopting emerging models, frameworks, and tools to enhance solution quality and sustain competitive advantage.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with product, engineering, and business stakeholders to translate requirements into scalable AI architectures, ensuring alignment between technical solutions and organizational objectives.
• Contribute to the development of best practices, reusable components, and internal standards for Generative AI development, fostering a culture of innovation, quality, and responsible AI use across the organization.
