Responsibilities

  • Lead the technical direction of GenAI and agentic ML systems powering enterprise AI agents.
  • Architect, design, and implement scalable production pipelines for training, fine-tuning, retrieval, agent orchestration, and evaluation.
  • Own the multi-year roadmap for GenAI infrastructure, including agent frameworks, retrieval-augmented generation systems, evaluation loops, and integrations with MCP, browser, and vision pipelines.
  • Research, prototype, and integrate advances in deep learning, large models, recommender systems, LLMs, reasoning, memory architectures, multimodal perception, long-context models, and autonomous agents.
  • Optimize accuracy, latency, cost, interpretability, and reliability across the agent lifecycle.
  • Drive observability, reproducibility, versioning, testing, and bias-aware development across ML and agentic systems.
  • Mentor and elevate senior engineers and researchers while fostering scientific rigor and system-level thinking.
  • Collaborate with product, infrastructure, research, and data teams to align ML innovation with enterprise needs.
  • Guide retrieval indices, embeddings, corpora, and feedback loops to improve grounding, factuality, and reasoning depth.
  • Ensure ML agents and retrieval pipelines scale across billions of knowledge objects, diverse APIs, and real-time enterprise contexts.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s, Master’s, or PhD degree in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Statistics, or a related field.
  • Usually 10–12+ years of applied machine learning experience, especially in large-scale settings.
  • Experience building production ML systems under latency, throughput, and cost constraints.
  • Experience with knowledge retrieval and search, and exposure to agentic systems and frameworks.
  • Proficiency in Python, C++, or Java and ML frameworks such as TensorFlow and PyTorch.
  • Strong understanding of the full ML lifecycle, including data pipelines, feature engineering, training, serving, monitoring, and maintenance.
  • Experience designing monitoring, diagnostics, logging, and model-versioning systems.
  • Deep knowledge of distributed training, inference optimization, quantization, pruning, and batching.
  • Experience mentoring senior engineers and influencing technical discussions across organizations.
  • Excellent communication skills for presenting complex systems and trade-offs to technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Benefits

  • Hybrid work arrangement with three days per week in the office.
  • Opportunity to work on agentic AI systems and mission-critical enterprise ML platforms.
  • Collaboration with engineers, product thinkers, and AI researchers.
