- Build conversational AI applications, including chatbots and voice-based customer service systems.
- Develop AI-powered integrations across applications, platforms, and services.
- Design and optimize Retrieval-Augmented Generation systems using vector databases, embeddings, retrieval strategies, and prompt engineering.
- Develop, implement, and optimize machine learning models using PyTorch.
- Evaluate and select large language models based on accuracy, latency, cost, capabilities, and user experience.
- Translate business requirements into scalable technical AI solutions in partnership with cross-functional teams.
- Architect, deploy, and maintain production-grade AI systems with a focus on reliability, scalability, security, and performance.
- Monitor AI system performance and improve model quality, response accuracy, and operational efficiency.

- Knowledge of RAG system components: vector databases, embeddings, retrieval strategies, and prompt engineering
- Familiarity with major LLM providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta, etc.) and understanding of their trade-offs in terms of performance, cost, latency, and capabilities
- Understanding of transformer neural network architecture and attention mechanisms 6+ years
- Experience integrating AI capabilities into applications or eagerness to learn application development
Bonus Qualifications:
- Proficiency in Kotlin programming
- Full-stack development experience with both backend and frontend technologies
- Cloud software development experience, especially microservices architecture and integration
- Experience with REST APIs, gRPC, and/or Kafka for service communication and event-driven architectures
