• 8+ years of relevant experience in software engineering, AI/ML engineering, data engineering, or technology architecture.
• Proven experience personally architecting and deploying at least one enterprise-grade AI or Generative AI solution into production.
• Strong practical knowledge of LLMs, RAG, embeddings, vector databases, orchestration frameworks, and model evaluation.
• Hands-on experience with Python and APIs, including prototyping, code review, and troubleshooting.
• Experience with at least one major cloud platform: Microsoft Azure, AWS, or Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
• Understanding of data pipelines, SQL/NoSQL databases, containers, CI/CD, MLOps, and LLMOps.
• Knowledge of enterprise security, privacy, identity and access management, and responsible AI practices.
• Experience independently leading architecture workshops, design reviews, and technical discussions with US clients.
• Excellent written and spoken English, documentation, and stakeholder management skills.
• Availability to work from 3:00 PM to 12:00 AM IST and willingness to accept a contractual engagement.

Preferred Experience

• Azure AI Foundry, Azure OpenAI, Amazon Bedrock, or Google Vertex AI.
• Azure AI Search or equivalent retrieval tools.
• LangChain, LangGraph, Semantic Kernel, and agent/tool orchestration.
• Model fine-tuning, predictive ML, document intelligence, multimodal AI, or real-time AI applications.
• Experience in cloud modernization, enterprise integrations, data analytics, or technology consulting.
• Relevant AI/cloud architecture certifications and experience mentoring technical teams.

What Success Looks Like

• Designing secure, scalable, production-ready AI solutions rather than demos or conceptual presentations.

• Taking ownership of architecture decisions and resolving technical blockers with limited supervision.
• Building trust with senior US stakeholders and collaborating effectively with India-based delivery teams.

Contract Details

• Initial engagement: Minimum 3 months, with extension subject to project requirements and performance.
• Working schedule: 3:00 PM – 12:00 AM IST.
• Potential permanent employment: After 18 months, the client may consider direct permanent employment at its sole discretion. Conversion is not guaranteed.

Mandatory Screening Criteria

Candidates should be able to:

• Explain an enterprise AI/GenAI solution they personally architected and deployed, including architecture, scale, evaluation, and business impact.
• Whiteboard an enterprise RAG or agentic solution covering data flow, security, authentication, authorization, monitoring, and cost controls.
• Discuss real-world model-quality issues, hallucinations, privacy risks, incidents, and architectural trade-offs.
• Lead a technical design review with US client stakeholders.
• Confirm acceptance of the working hours and contractual engagement.

Apply only if you have hands-on experience architecting and deploying enterprise AI/GenAI solutions in production.

About the Company

As the world moves toward AI-native applications, one element matters more than anything: data.

What You Will Do

• Convert product direction into phased technical plans, including estimates, milestones, dependencies, and risk assessments.
• Make thoughtful trade-offs across correctness, latency, user experience, AI/model behavior, reliability, cost, and delivery speed.
• Define clear ownership boundaries across frontend applications, BFF layers, backend services, agent workflows, ML platforms, and data contracts.
• Review ERDs, PRDs, design documents, and implementation plans to identify gaps before they become execution challenges.
• Drive planning and execution for complex initiatives while empowering area leads and senior engineers to maintain ownership.
• Partner closely with Product, Design, Engineering, and GTM teams to turn ambiguous problem statements into executable solutions.
• Influence technical direction through strong engineering judgment, architectural leadership, and hands-on involvement.
• Mentor senior engineers and contribute to engineering excellence through reviews, incident analysis, and proactive risk management.

What It Takes

• 9+ years of experience as a Senior Engineer, Technical Lead, or equivalent role.
• Demonstrated experience owning architecture and execution for large-scale product or platform initiatives spanning multiple teams.
• Strong foundation in distributed systems and modern software architecture.
• Exposure to agentic AI systems, machine learning engineering, MLOps platforms, and frontend/BFF architectures.
• Ability to own end-to-end product and technical problems rather than specializing exclusively in a single layer of the stack.
• Proven track record of converting ambiguity into actionable engineering plans.
• Excellent written communication skills, including design documentation, architectural reviews, trade-off analyses, and RCA documentation.
• Ability to challenge requirements constructively and collaborate effectively across Product, Design, Engineering, and GTM functions.
• High ownership mindset, attention to detail, and a low-ego, collaborative approach.
