Job description

Job Description:

GenAI & Agentic AI Development

• Design, develop, and deploy production-grade GenAI solutions using advanced LLMs such as OpenAI models.
• Implement Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines using structured and unstructured enterprise data.
• Design hybrid search architectures combining Vector DBs and Graph DBs such as Azure AI Search, Neo4j, and Databricks Vector Search.
• Develop reusable AI components and frameworks that can be leveraged across multiple enterprise AI use cases.

Build Agentic AI workflows using frameworks such as LangChain, LangGraph, and Haystack, including:

1. Multi-agent orchestration including planner, retriever, evaluator, and executor agents.
2. Tool calling, function execution, and system-to-system automation.
3. Short-term, long-term, and session-based memory management.

Data Validation & Quality

• Perform end-to-end data validation before data is consumed by AI, ML, analytics, and decision-intelligence applications.
• Validate data completeness, accuracy, consistency, freshness, aggregations, calculations, and business-rule alignment across source systems and downstream applications.
• Work with business and data teams to validate KPIs, calculations, business rules, AI-generated insights, and recommendations before production release.
• Develop automated data-quality checks, validation frameworks, anomaly detection, and reconciliation processes.
• Identify data-quality issues and coordinate with Data Engineering and relevant teams for resolution.
• Ensure AI-generated insights and recommendations are based on validated and trusted enterprise data.

Full-Stack AI & React Application Development

• Take hands-on ownership of end-to-end AI application development, from AI/ML services and APIs through user-facing applications.
• Design and develop modern, responsive react-based web applications for AI, analytics, and decision-intelligence use cases.
• Build interactive interfaces for AI insights, recommendations, conversational experiences, dashboards, visualizations, and actionable workflows.
• Integrate React applications with AI/ML services, enterprise APIs, data platforms, authentication services, and backend systems.
• Develop scalable backend services and APIs using Python and relevant API frameworks.
• Ensure frontend and backend applications meet enterprise requirements for performance, security, scalability, usability, and maintainability.

Individual Contribution & Offshore Team Coordination

• Spend approximately 90% of the role as a hands-on Individual Contributor, directly involved in architecture, coding, development, debugging, testing, optimization, deployment, and production support.
• Allocate approximately 10% of the role to coordinating and reviewing technical tasks delivered by the offshore team.
• Review offshore team deliverables to ensure alignment with requirements, solution design, coding standards, and expected quality.
• Perform code reviews, technical reviews, and functional validation of assigned offshore deliverables.
• Provide clarification on technical requirements and tasks where required to support offshore delivery.
• Track assigned technical tasks and highlight dependencies, quality issues, or delivery risks.
• Work collaboratively with offshore AI Engineers, Data Engineers, Data Scientists, and Frontend Developers on integrated solution delivery.
• Remain directly accountable for assigned hands-on development activities while supporting the quality and integration of offshore deliverables.

Enterprise Integration & Cloud Engineering

• Develop and integrate AI-powered applications, chatbots, and agents within the Azure ecosystem.
• Integrate AI solutions with enterprise systems using APIs, event-driven architectures, and message brokers.
• Build secure and scalable services leveraging Azure App Services, Azure Functions, AKS, Azure Cache for Redis, and related services.
• Integrate applications with enterprise identity and access-management frameworks including authentication, authorization, RBAC, and data-level security.
