Job summary

Fresh Gravity is seeking a Forward Deployed AI Engineer in Pune, India to transform ambiguous business problems into working AI solutions. You will design, build, and iterate with users and clients until value is delivered, taking ownership beyond coding.

The role emphasizes hands-on engineering with LLMs, RAG, and knowledge-based AI, collaborating with product and client teams to ship production-ready applications.

Qualifications

• Strong Python skills and experience building real software.
• Hands-on experience with modern LLMs such as OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, LlamaIndex or similar.
• Practical experience with RAG, embeddings, semantic search, or knowledge-based AI systems.
• Familiarity with agent/orchestration frameworks such as LangGraph, LangChain, LlamaIndex, or Semantic Kernel.
• Comfort working with APIs, databases, Git, Docker, and cloud platforms.
• Ability to work independently, make technical decisions, and figure things out when requirements are incomplete.
• Strong system-design fundamentals, including data handling, APIs, scalability, reliability, and cost-conscious architecture.
• Ability to think beyond the AI layer and design intuitive applications and user workflows.

Responsibilities

• Own AI solutions end-to-end — from understanding the problem through architecture, deployment, and iteration.
• Work directly with users, product leaders, and client teams to turn loosely defined ideas into usable products.
• Build production-grade applications using LLMs, agents, RAG, structured data, and enterprise systems.
• Design agentic workflows involving tool use, orchestration, memory/state management, and human-in-the-loop steps.
• Rapidly prototype, gather feedback, and evolve solutions into scalable products.
• Debug across prompts, models, retrieval, application code, data, and infrastructure to keep systems reliable.

# Forward Deployed AI Engineer**AI · GenAI****Pune, India**

About the Role

As a Forward Deployed AI Engineer at Fresh Gravity, you'll turn ambiguous business problems into working AI solutions — designing, building, and iterating alongside users and clients until the solution delivers real value.This is a hands‑on, high‑impact role for engineers who are comfortable with ambiguity, move quickly, and take ownership beyond just writing code.

What You'll Do

• Own AI solutions end-to-end — from understanding the problem through architecture, deployment, and iteration
• Work directly with users, product leaders, and client teams to turn loosely defined ideas into usable products
• Build production‑grade applications using LLMs, agents, RAG, structured data, and enterprise systems
• Design agentic workflows involving tool use, orchestration, memory/state management, and human-in-the-loop steps
• Rapidly prototype, gather feedback, and evolve solutions into scalable products
• Debug across prompts, models, retrieval, application code, data, and infrastructure to keep systems reliable

What You'll Bring

• Strong Python skills and experience building real software — not just notebooks and demos
• Hands‑on experience with modern LLMs such as OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Llama, or similar
• Practical experience with RAG, embeddings, semantic search, or knowledge‑based AI systems
• Familiarity with agent/orchestration frameworks such as LangGraph, LangChain, LlamaIndex, or Semantic Kernel
• Comfort working with APIs, databases, Git, Docker, and cloud platforms
• Ability to work independently, make technical decisions, and figure things out when requirements are incomplete
• Strong system‑design fundamentals, including data handling, APIs, scalability, reliability, and cost‑conscious architecture
• Ability to think beyond the AI layer and design intuitive applications and user workflows

Nice to Have

• Experience evaluating AI systems across correctness, reliability, latency, cost, and business value
• Exposure to client‑facing work such as workshops, discovery sessions, or proof‑of‑value engagements
• Good judgment on when to use prompting, retrieval, tools, deterministic logic, or traditional software instead of using an LLM for everything

• Comprehensive insurance for you and your family.
• Flexible & hybrid work
• Work where you do your best, with real flexibility.
• Learning & certifications
• Budget and time for cloud, data, and AI certifications.
