Job Title: AI Engineer - DS&ML
Location: ENGINEERING DIVISION Plano, Texas, United States
Duration:Long term
Experience:10 Above

Position Summary:

We are seeking an experienced AI Engineer to design, build, evaluate, and operationalize the technical foundation of the DS/ML AI Accelerator. The successful candidate will be responsible for hands‑on generative AI engineering, retrieval‑augmented generation (RAG), agent workflow design, and software engineering with a strong focus on governance, traceability, and measurable delivery impact.].

Essential Functions

• Governed Knowledge and RAG
  • Partner with data and business owners to onboard approved documents, data definitions, prior work, and expert knowledge into a governed knowledge base.
  • Implement retrieval pipelines, metadata, taxonomy, tagging, source citations, and quality checks that make context discoverable and trustworthy.
  • Create evaluation datasets and retrieval‑quality metrics; diagnose relevance, grounding, completeness, and source‑stewardship gaps.
  • Ensure generated outputs clearly distinguish retrieved facts, inferences, assumptions, and items that need subject‑matter‑expert confirmation.
• Agentic Product Engineering
  • Design and build secure multi‑agent workflows that retrieve approved context, coordinate LLM and deterministic steps, use tools safely, and produce structured, traceable outputs.
  • Define explicit agent roles, tool contracts, workflow state, validation, error handling, stop conditions, and human review points for reliable multi‑agent operation.
  • Implement reusable prompt, workflow, and tool‑orchestration patterns that improve repeatability, traceability, and usability for Data Scientists, ML Engineers, Business Analysts, Product Owners, and SMEs.
• Evaluation, Delivery, and Governance
  • Define and instrument technical and user‑centered evaluation for agent outputs, including correctness, completeness, traceability, revision effort, latency, and cost‑to‑serve.
  • Work in two‑week agile sprints; demonstrate working increments, document technical decisions and convert pilot feedback into a prioritized backlog.
  • Apply secure development practices and meet Responsible AI, security, privacy, data‑governance, and enterprise review‑board requirements.
  • Partner with the future operating owner to define maintainable code, runbooks, monitoring, knowledge‑source refresh practices, and an enhancement backlog.
