• Build solutions involving Computer Vision, including image/video analysis, classification, detection, recognition, or related applications.
• Develop and experiment with Generative AI and Large Language Model (LLM) applications.
• Design and implement Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) solutions using enterprise or domain-specific data.
• Build agentic AI workflows, including multi-step reasoning, tool integration, orchestration, and automated AI-driven processes.
• Work with structured and unstructured datasets to perform data exploration, feature engineering, modeling, and analysis.
• Evaluate model performance and improve accuracy, reliability, scalability, and overall solution quality.
• Develop prototypes and proofs of concept and help transition successful solutions toward production.
• Collaborate closely with technical and business stakeholders to understand problems and translate requirements into effective AI/ML solutions.
• Stay current with rapidly evolving AI/ML technologies and proactively identify opportunities to apply them.

Required Qualifications

• Strong hands-on experience in Data Science, Artificial Intelligence, and Machine Learning.
• Proficiency with Python and commonly used data science/ML libraries and frameworks.
• Practical experience developing and evaluating machine learning models.
• Experience with Computer Vision technologies and frameworks.
• Hands-on exposure to LLMs and Generative AI applications.
• Experience designing or implementing RAG architectures, including embeddings, vector search/vector databases, retrieval, and prompt/context management.
• Understanding of AI agents and agentic workflows, including orchestration and tool/API integration.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
• Ability to communicate technical concepts effectively to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Ability and willingness to work onsite in Corpus Christi, TX.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience taking AI/ML solutions from prototype or proof of concept through production.
• Familiarity with cloud-based AI/ML platforms and services.
• Experience with MLOps, model deployment, APIs, containers, or production ML pipelines.
• Familiarity with modern LLM frameworks, vector databases, and AI orchestration technologies.
• Experience working with large-scale structured and unstructured datasets.
