This role is centered on designing, developing, and deploying advanced AI/ML systems, building next-generation agentic AI solutions powered by retrieval-augmented generation (RAG). The ideal candidate will have deep expertise in Python-based AI development, modern orchestration frameworks like Lang Graph, and a strong background in modeling to ensure systems are governed, explainable, and trustworthy. This position requires a minimum of 3 days per week onsite.

Responsibilities:

• Design and develop production-grade Python APIs and services
• Deploy and operate applications on Open Shift
• Develop AI process models
• Partner with AI/ML engineers to product ionize model capabilities into usable backend services
• Remediate vulnerabilities in Python libraries, container images, and Open Shift deployment configurations
• Design and implement advanced RAG pipelines using vector databases, embeddings, knowledge graphs, and hybrid retrieval strategies
• Develop agentic AI systems using Lang Graph, enabling dynamic task planning, reasoning, tool orchestration, and multi-agent workflows
• Integrate Model Context Protocol (MCP) for standardized context sharing, tool interoperability, and scalable agent communication
• Design memory systems and contextual state management for agent continuity and long-running workflows
• Implement evaluation pipelines, prompt engineering strategies, and guardrails to ensure performance, safety, and reliability
• Apply Model Risk Management (MRM) practices across the AI lifecycle, including model validation, explainability, bias detection, monitoring, and documentation

Requirements:

• Master's degree in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, or a related field
• Strong proficiency in Python programming, with experience building scalable AI/ML systems
• Hands-on experience with agentic AI frameworks, particularly Lang Graph, and emerging standards such as Model Context Protocol (MCP)
• Strong experience designing and implementing advanced RAG architectures, including Graph RAG
• Experience with LLM orchestration frameworks such as Lang Chain, Lang Graph, and Llama Index
• Proven experience deploying LLM-powered production systems
• Strong experience with Python ML/AI frameworks such as PyTorch, Tensor Flow, and Scikit-learn
• Hands-on experience with vector databases (FAISS, Pinecone, Weaviate, Azure AI Search) and semantic retrieval systems
• Deep understanding of agent orchestration patterns, including planning, reflection, tool usage, and multi-agent collaboration
• Strong understanding of LLMOps/MLOps, including CI/CD, observability, monitoring, and performance optimization
• Working knowledge of Model Risk Management (MRM) frameworks including governance, validation, and lifecycle controls
• Familiarity with AI safety and alignment techniques, including guardrails and bias mitigation
• Proficiency with development tools such as Git Hub, VS Code, and JIRA

Desired skills:

• Experience working in an Agile development methodology
• Experience with RAG and LLM
• Mainframe - API integration
