WHAT YOU’LL DO

• Design, build, and deploy agentic AI systems and LLM-powered applications that automate complex analytical and business workflows for Retail clients.
• Develop and orchestrate multi-agent workflows using frameworks such as LangGraph, LangChain, and the Azure AI Agent Service—integrating tools, memory, and reasoning loops.
• Build and optimize retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipelines, combining vector search with Neo4j knowledge graphs and graph databases.
• Engineer, evaluate, and fine-tune prompts and LLMs, implementing guardrails, evaluation harnesses, and human-in-the-loop feedback for accuracy and safety.
