  • Partner directly with clients to understand complex business problems and translate them into GenAI and Agentic AI solutions.
  • Design, build, deploy, and scale LLM applications, RAG systems, AI agents, and multi-agent workflows.
  • Integrate AI solutions with enterprise data, APIs, databases, and business applications.
  • Deploy, operate, and scale solutions in production cloud environments.
  • Troubleshoot and optimize production systems for performance, scalability, reliability, security, and cost.
  • Collaborate closely with architects, ML engineers, developers, and client stakeholders in fast-moving, ambiguous environments.

  • Strong Python programming skills.
  • Solid grasp of APIs, system design, databases, cloud-native applications, and production deployments.
  • JavaScript/TypeScript experience is a plus.


GenAI / Agentic AI Expertise
  • Proven experience building and deploying end-to-end GenAI and/or Agentic AI solutions.
  • Hands-on experience with LLMs - OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, and open-source models.
  • Hands-on experience with RAG, vector databases, embeddings, tool/function calling, and AI agents.
  • Experience with agent orchestration, multi-agent systems, or agentic workflows.
  • Familiarity with frameworks such as LangGraph, LangChain, LlamaIndex, Google ADK, or similar.
  • Working knowledge of MCP, A2A, or similar agent integration protocols.


Cloud & Production
  • Hands-on experience with at least one major hyperscaler - AWS, Azure, or GCP - including targeted expertise in:
  • AWS Stack: Designing workflows via Amazon Bedrock (Claude, Llama), deploying scalable RAG using OpenSearch Serverless (Vector Engine), and configuring Bedrock Guardrails for client VPCs.
  • Azure Stack: Deploying enterprise LLMs via Azure OpenAI Service (PTU optimization), building hybrid RAG systems with Azure AI Search, and orchestrating flows using Azure AI Foundry and Semantic Kernel.
  • GCP Stack: Scaling applications within Vertex AI, managing production pipelines, structuring enterprise RAG with Vertex AI Vector Search + BigQuery, and building agentic flows with Gemini APIs.
  • Exposure to LLM evaluation, observability, monitoring, guardrails, or LLMOps.


The FDE Mindset
  • Strong customer-facing communication and sharp problem-solving instincts.
  • Comfortable operating independently, navigating ambiguity, and moving fast from problem  solution  production.
