Responsibilities

• Design enterprise-ready AI agents encompassing retrieval, orchestration, policy-based routing, tool invocation, evaluation harnesses, and lifecycle observability.
• Build RAG and multi-agent systems on Databricks using Mosaic AI, Vector Search, Model Serving, and MLflow; govern data and models through Unity Catalog.
• Develop data and feature foundations on the Lakehouse (Delta Lake, DLT, Unity Catalog) that feed production AI applications.
• Tailor and deploy agentic applications across industries such as finance, healthcare, and retail.
• Conduct design workshops, proofs of concept, and code-with sessions with client stakeholders.
• Define and use metrics to measure agent accuracy, latency, safety, and cost effectiveness.

• 1 year experience in designing and shipping agentic AI solutions in production.
• 1 year experience in shipping agentic solutions in production (agents, orchestration, context engineering, RAG, workflows) using AI platforms (OpenAI, Claude, Vertex AI, open-source) and Databricks AI tooling (Mosaic AI, Vector Search, Model Serving, MLflow).
• 5 years of experience in Python, Java, or equivalent. Comfortable with evaluation tooling, logging, monitoring, and observability.
• 2 years’ experience in shipping to production: CI/CD, infrastructure as code (Terraform, Helm), monitoring, and debugging. Practical MLOps and LLMOps experience across the ML and LLM lifecycle (model training, serving, monitoring, prompt management).
