Senior AI Data Engineer

Key Responsibilities

• Design and develop LLM-powered applications using agentic patterns (single/multi-agent) for business use cases
• Build and optimise end-to-end RAG pipelines (ingestion, embeddings, retrieval, orchestration, response synthesis)
• Implement prompt engineering and orchestration techniques (prompt chaining, tool/function calling, structured outputs)
• Develop production-grade APIs and services (FastAPI/Flask/Streamlit) for GenAI applications
• Integrate LLM solutions with enterprise systems, data platforms, and workflows
• Apply guardrails and evaluation frameworks to improve response quality, reduce hallucinations, and ensure responsible AI usage
• Collaborate with Data Engineering and MLOps teams for data pipelines, deployment, monitoring, and scaling
• Contribute to reusable components, documentation, and engineering best practices
