About this role

Senior Software Engineer – AI/ML

About the Role

We are looking for a   Senior Software Engineer – AI/ML   with strong hands-on experience in   Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, particularly in designing and developing   complex, production-level AI/ML solutions.

The ideal candidate should have practical experience taking AI/ML solutions from concept or prototype through to   production deployment, with a strong understanding of model integration, AI/ML workflows, scalability, performance, and reliability.

Experience in   API development and software engineering   is also required, but this will be a secondary focus compared to hands-on AI/ML expertise.

Key Responsibilities

- Design, develop, deploy, and maintain   production-grade AI/ML solutions   for complex business and technical use cases.
- Develop and implement AI/ML solutions using appropriate models, frameworks, tools, and technologies.
- Work with   Generative AI, Large Language Models (LLMs), and AI/ML applications   where applicable.
- Develop solutions involving   RAG, embeddings, vector databases, prompt engineering, model integration, and AI workflows.
- Build and integrate AI/ML capabilities into enterprise applications and existing technology ecosystems.
- Evaluate and optimize AI/ML solutions for   accuracy, performance, scalability, reliability, and cost.
- Work with large and complex datasets and apply appropriate machine learning techniques to solve real-world problems.
- Develop and maintain   REST APIs and services   to expose and integrate AI/ML capabilities with enterprise applications.
- Integrate AI/ML solutions with databases, external services, enterprise applications, and other data sources.
- Write clean, maintainable, testable, and production-ready code.
- Participate in architecture discussions, code reviews, testing, CI/CD, deployment, and production support.
- Troubleshoot and resolve issues related to AI/ML models, applications, integrations, and production environments.
- Collaborate with engineering, product, architecture, and business teams to deliver scalable AI/ML solutions.
- Contribute to technical standards, best practices, and continuous improvement of AI/ML engineering processes.

Required Skills & Qualifications

- Bachelor's or Master's degree in   Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Data Science, or a related field.
- Strong professional experience in   AI/ML engineering, with proven hands-on experience building and deploying production-level AI/ML solutions.
- Experience working on   complex, real-world AI/ML use cases   rather than only prototypes, POCs, or academic projects.
- Strong programming skills in   Python. Experience with Java, C#, or TypeScript is an added advantage.
- Strong understanding of   machine learning concepts, algorithms, model development, evaluation, and deployment.
- Hands-on experience with relevant AI/ML frameworks and libraries such as   PyTorch, TensorFlow, Scikit-learn, Hugging Face, or similar.
- Experience with   Generative AI and LLM-based applications   is preferred.
- Experience with concepts such as   RAG, embeddings, vector search, prompt engineering, LLM integration, and model evaluation   is an advantage.
- Experience developing and integrating   REST APIs   using frameworks such as FastAPI, Flask, Spring Boot, .NET, or similar.
- Understanding of software engineering principles, application architecture, scalability, and performance.
- Experience working with   cloud platforms such as Azure, AWS, or GCP.
- Experience with databases such as   PostgreSQL, MongoDB, or other relational/NoSQL databases.
- Familiarity with Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD, automated testing, and production deployment practices is preferred.
- Strong problem-solving, analytical, and communication skills.

Preferred Qualifications

- Experience building and deploying   enterprise-scale AI/ML applications.
- Experience with   Generative AI, LLMs, and Agentic AI   solutions.
- Experience with frameworks such as   LangChain, LangGraph, LlamaIndex, Semantic Kernel, or similar.
- Experience with   AI agents, tool/function calling, workflow orchestration, and multi-step AI workflows.
- Familiarity with   MCP, AI guardrails, LLM evaluation, AI observability, and Responsible AI.
- Experience integrating AI/ML solutions with enterprise APIs, databases, and business applications.
- Experience with AI/ML model optimization, monitoring, and production support.
- Cloud or AI/ML certifications are a plus.

What We're Looking For

We are primarily looking for a   strong hands-on AI/ML engineer   who has experience solving   complex, production-level AI/ML problems   and delivering reliable solutions in an enterprise environment.

The ideal candidate should be comfortable working across the AI/ML lifecycle — from   understanding the business problem and developing the solution to deployment, optimization, monitoring, and production support.

Experience in   API development and broader software engineering   is important, but it is considered a   secondary requirement. The primary differentiator for this role will be the candidate's depth of   practical AI/ML experience and their ability to build and productionize complex AI/ML solutions.
