Sr/Lead GenAI Engineer

Job Expectation

Role : Python.AI Engineer

Exp : 4 to 12 Years

Location : Pune

Role Overview :

We are seeking an experienced AI Engineer to design and build production-grade Generative AI solutions with a strong focus on agentic workflows, multi-agent systems, and enterprise AI applications. The ideal candidate combines strong software engineering fundamentals with hands-on expertise in LLMs, RAG architectures, and AI agent frameworks.

Key Responsibilities :

• Design, architect, and develop scalable Generative AI applications and agentic solutions for real-world business use cases.
• Build and orchestrate AI agents using frameworks such as LangChain, LangGraph, Google ADK, CrewAI, AutoGen, Microsoft Copilot Studio, or similar technologies.
• Develop and maintain backend services, APIs, microservices, and data pipelines that power AI-driven products.
• Implement advanced AI patterns including RAG, Agentic RAG, tool/function calling, planning & reflection loops, and human-in-the-loop workflows.
• Engineer and optimize prompts, system instructions, and agent workflows to improve reliability, accuracy, and user experience.
• Integrate LLMs with enterprise systems, third-party APIs, vector databases, and knowledge repositories.
• Monitor, evaluate, and continuously improve model and agent performance using observability tools, metrics, and user feedback.
• Collaborate closely with Product, Engineering, Data, and Design teams to deliver impactful AI solutions.
• Stay current with emerging AI technologies, frameworks, and best practices, contributing innovative ideas to the team.
• Document architectures, design decisions, and reusable solution patterns while supporting knowledge sharing across teams.

Required Qualifications:

Must Have :

• 4 -8 years of overall software engineering experience.
• 3+ years of hands-on experience building applications using Generative AI and LLM technologies.
• Strong proficiency in Python and experience developing production-ready applications.
• Hands-on experience with at least two agentic AI frameworks such as LangChain, LangGraph, Google ADK, CrewAI, AutoGen, or Microsoft Copilot extensibility.
• Strong backend development skills, including REST/gRPC APIs, asynchronous programming, Docker, and frameworks such as FastAPI or Flask.
• Solid understanding of leading LLMs including OpenAI GPT models, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, and open-source alternatives.
• Practical experience building RAG solutions using vector databases such as Pinecone, Weaviate, ChromaDB, or Qdrant.
• Expertise in prompt engineering, LLM orchestration, structured outputs, guardrails, ReAct patterns, and evaluation techniques.
• Strong problem-solving, system design, and architectural decision-making skills.
• Excellent communication skills with the ability to collaborate effectively across global teams.

Preferred Qualifications :

• Experience with AI observability and evaluation tools such as LangSmith, Ragas, DeepEval, Arize, or Weights & Biases.
• Familiarity with model adaptation and fine-tuning techniques (LoRA, PEFT, RLHF concepts).
• Experience with cloud AI platforms including Azure OpenAI, AWS Bedrock, or Google Vertex AI.
• Understanding of CI/CD, MLOps, and LLMOps practices.
• Exposure to graph databases, knowledge graphs, and structured data integration.
• Experience with event-driven architectures and messaging platforms such as Kafka or RabbitMQ.

What We're Looking For:

• Engineers who build and deliver production-ready AI systems, not just prototypes.
• Professionals who can evaluate and recommend the right architecture, whether single-agent, multi-agent, RAG-based, or fine-tuned solutions.
• Strong ownership mindset with the ability to take AI solutions from concept through production deployment.
• Team players who contribute technical leadership, best practices, and continuous learning within a rapidly evolving AI landscape.
