Job summary

Numeric Technologies Limited in Bengaluru seeks an AI Automation Engineer to design, build, and run AI-powered automations that reduce manual work in business and engineering workflows. This is a hands-on role turning ambiguous processes into reliable, production-grade automations using LLMs, agent frameworks, APIs and orchestration tools.

You will collaborate with process owners, data engineers, and platform teams to prototype, harden solutions, and scale them with strong observability, cost

Qualifications

• 3-5 years of professional software/automation experience, with 1+ year building with LLMs or AI services.
• Strong Python skills with async programming, API integration, testing and packaging.
• Hands-on experience with at least one agent/orchestration framework.
• Experience building RAG systems and using a vector store.
• REST/GraphQL API integration with OAuth and token-based auth.
• Git-based workflows and CI/CD experience.
• Cloud experience on AWS/Azure/GCP.
• Containerization with Docker and related tooling.
• Strong stakeholder engagement and requirements elicitation.

Responsibilities

• Build end-to-end AI automations integrating LLMs with systems and data.
• Design RAG pipelines with vector stores and re-ranking.
• Develop tool- and function-calling integrations for agent tools.
• Collaborate with stakeholders to map processes and ROI-driven backlog.
• Write production Python services with logging, retries, and error handling.
• Create model evaluation harnesses and quality gates.
• Instrument observability, tracing, and cost monitoring for automations.
• Implement human-in-the-loop checks and safe fallbacks.
• Optimize latency and cost through model selection and routing.
• Document architecture, runbooks, and handover material.
• Ensure security, privacy, and responsible-AI compliance.

Role Summary

We are looking for an AI Automation Engineer to design, build, and operate AI-powered automations that remove manual effort from business and engineering workflows. This is a hands‑on build role: you will take ambiguous, human‑in‑the‑loop processes and turn them into reliable, monitored, production‑grade automations using LLMs, agentic frameworks, APIs, and workflow orchestration tools.

You will work closely with process owners, data engineers, and platform teams to identify high‑value automation candidates, prototype quickly, and harden what works into supportable services.

Key Responsibilities

• Build and deploy end‑to‑end AI automations and agentic workflows that integrate LLMs with internal systems, APIs, and data sources.
• Design and implement RAG (retrieval‑augmented generation) pipelines: chunking, embedding, vector search, re‑ranking, and grounded response generation.
• Develop tool‑and‑function‑calling integrations so agents can act on systems of record (ticketing, ERP, document stores, internal APIs), including building MCP servers to expose internal systems as agent tools.
• Partner with business stakeholders to map current‑state processes, quantify manual effort, and prioritize an automation backlog by ROI and feasibility.
• Write production Python services and jobs — API clients, data transformations, schedulers, event‑driven handlers — with proper logging, retries, and error handling.
• Build prompt and model evaluation harnesses: golden datasets, regression tests, accuracy and hallucination checks, and pre‑deployment quality gates.
• Instrument automations with observability and tracing so failures, cost spikes, latency regressions, and quality drift are detected early.
• Implement human‑in‑the‑loop checkpoints, approval steps, and safe fallbacks for workflows where full autonomy is inappropriate.
• Optimize for cost and latency through model selection, caching, batching, prompt compression, and routing between larger and smaller models.
• Document architecture, runbooks, and handover material; support and iterate on automations after launch.
• Follow security, privacy, and responsible‑AI requirements around data handling, access control, PII, and model usage.

Required Qualifications

• 3-5 years of professional software engineering, data engineering, or automation engineering experience, including at least 1 year building with LLMs or AI services.
• Strong Python skills — async programming, API integration, testing, packaging, and clean, maintainable code.
• Practical experience with LLM APIs (e.g. Anthropic Claude, OpenAI, Gemini, or Bedrock) in a real application, not just experimentation.
• Hands‑on experience with at least one agent or orchestration framework (LangChain, LangGraph, LlamaIndex, CrewAI, Semantic Kernel, AutoGen, or equivalent in‑house tooling).
• Demonstrated experience building RAG systems and working with a vector store (pgvector, Pinecone, Weaviate, Qdrant, Milvus, OpenSearch, or similar).
• Solid grasp of prompt engineering and context design, plus structured output techniques (JSON schemas, tool/function calling, validation and repair).
• Familiarity with the Model Context Protocol (MCP) — building MCP servers to expose internal systems as agent tools, and integrating them into agent applications.
• Strong REST/GraphQL API integration skills, including OAuth and token‑based authentication, webhooks, pagination, and rate‑limit handling.
• Working knowledge of SQL and data modeling; comfortable joining and cleaning data across systems.
• Experience with Git‑based workflows, code review, and CI/CD.
• Cloud experience on AWS, Azure, or GCP — compute, serverless functions, queues, secrets management, and managed AI services.
• Containerization fundamentals with Docker.
• Proven ability to work directly with stakeholders: eliciting requirements, demoing prototypes, and managing expectations.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with workflow automation platforms: n8n, Zapier, Power Automate, Airflow, Temporal, Prefect, or Dagster.
• Background in RPA (UiPath, Automation Anywhere, Blue Prism) and experience modernizing RPA‑era automations with AI.
• Experience with LLM observability and evaluation tooling (LangSmith, LangFuse, Arize, Braintrust, Ragas, or DeepEval).
• Multi‑agent system design — planner/executor patterns, supervisor architectures, delegation, and shared state.
• Document intelligence and multimodal work: OCR, PDF parsing, table extraction, vision model usage.
• Frontend familiarity (React.js, Next.js, TypeScript) for building internal tools and demos.
• Infrastructure‑as‑code (Terraform, CloudFormation) and Kubernetes exposure.
• Experience with enterprise governance concerns: AI risk review, audit trails, data residency, and access‑scoped retrieval.
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
