  • Ensure code quality through comprehensive unit testing and integration testing frameworks.
  • Implement CI/CD practices to automate deployment and streamline development processes.
  • Stay updated on the latest trends in generative AI and apply new techniques and methodologies to projects.
Requirements:
  • 10+ years of experience as a Java developer with a strong focus on generative AI and related technologies.
  • Proven expertise in building and deploying generative models, including GANs, VAEs, and Transformer-based architectures.
  • Proficiency in Java frameworks such as Spring Boot, Hibernate, and Maven.
  • Experience with machine learning libraries and frameworks like TensorFlow, PyTorch, and Hugging Face Transformers.
  • Strong understanding of cloud principles and experience with cloud platforms (GCP, AWS) for deploying AI solutions.
  • Familiarity with NoSQL databases such as MongoDB for managing large datasets.
  • Demonstrated ability to explain complex AI concepts to non-technical stakeholders effectively.
  • Experience with CI/CD tools such as Jenkins and GitHub for automated deployment.
