Role Overview
We are looking for an experienced AI Engineer with strong hands-on expertise in building and deploying LLM-powered applications, RAG systems, AI agents, document intelligence solutions, and cloud-based AI applications. This is a long-term contract opportunity for candidates who can independently design, develop, evaluate, deploy, and improve production-grade AI solutions.
Responsibilities
- Design and implement LLM agents with tool calling, function calling, dialogue state, guardrails, and safety controls.
- Build high-quality RAG and retrieval pipelines involving document indexing, chunking, embeddings, vector search, hybrid retrieval, and reranking.
- Ingest and process complex documents and PDFs using OCR and multimodal LLM-based understanding.
- Design and optimize prompts, prompt templates, and few-shot examples.
- Conduct A/B testing and automated LLM evaluations to measure grounding, hallucination, accuracy, latency, and cost.
- Deploy and monitor AI applications on cloud platforms with appropriate observability.
- Integrate AI agents with external tools and enterprise data sources.
Requirements
- 3+ years of experience building AI / ML applications.
- 1–2+ years of hands-on LLM and RAG experience.
- Strong programming expertise in Python.
- Hands-on experience with LangChain, LlamaIndex, and Hugging Face.
- Strong experience with vector databases such as Qdrant, Milvus, or Elasticsearch.
- Practical experience with chunking strategies, embedding tuning, and hybrid search.
- Experience with table extraction, document layout parsing, and OCR.
- Experience integrating tools using MCP or similar protocols.
- Hands-on cloud deployment experience with AWS, Azure, or GCP.
Nice to Have
- Experience with Generative AI and Agentic AI systems.
- Knowledge of AI agents and autonomous workflows.
- Experience implementing AI guardrails and safety mechanisms.
- Experience with LLM evaluation frameworks.
- Experience working in the Pharmaceutical / Life Sciences domain.
