Senior AI Engineer

• Design and build agentic AI systems and multi-agent frameworks that automate complex, multi-step enterprise workflows.
• Develop and deploy LLM-powered applications using RAG, fine-tuning, prompt engineering, function calling, and tool use.
• Implement guardrails, evaluation frameworks, and responsible AI controls to ensure production-grade reliability and safety.
• Stay current with the rapidly evolving agentic AI landscape – MCP, LLM orchestration frameworks, reasoning models – and bring the best into customer engagements.

• Own the full development lifecycle across multiple streams: from problem framing and data exploration through model development, API integration, and production deployment.
• Build scalable backend services and APIs that expose AI capabilities to enterprise applications and workflows.
• Integrate AI models into customer environments – cloud, on-prem, and hybrid – ensuring performance, stability, and maintainability at scale.
• Develop ML pipelines and LLMOps infrastructure that support continuous model improvement and monitoring in production.

• Coordinate delivery across engineers, program managers, and solution architects – ensuring workstreams are aligned, unblocked, and progressing to plan.
• Set the technical bar for the engagements you lead, reviewing outputs, shaping architecture decisions, and ensuring engineering quality across the team.
• Mentor and guide junior ML engineers and solution engineers within engagements, building team capability alongside delivery.
• Collaborate closely with H2O.ai product and engineering teams to surface customer feedback, shape roadmap input, and resolve platform-level issues.

• 8+ years of hands-on AI/ML engineering experience, including end-to-end model development and production deployment.
• Demonstrable experience leading technical delivery across complex, multi-stakeholder enterprise engagements – not just executing within them.
• Demonstrable experience building LLM-powered applications – RAG pipelines, agentic workflows, fine-tuned models, or similar.
• Strong Python engineering skills; experience with ML frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow, scikit-learn) and LLM tooling (LangChain, LlamaIndex, or equivalent).
• Experience deploying AI services in cloud or enterprise environments (AWS, Azure, GCP, on-prem Kubernetes).

• Proven ability to manage multiple concurrent workstreams and coordinate cross-functional teams toward shared delivery milestones.
• Deep understanding of modern GenAI concepts: prompt engineering, RAG, fine-tuning, RLHF, model evaluation, guardrails, and LLMOps.
• Solid grounding in classical ML – able to select the right tool for the problem, not just default to the latest LLM.
• Backend development skills: REST APIs, containerisation (Docker/Kubernetes), and CI/CD pipelines for AI applications.
• Strong executive communication – able to run a board-level briefing one hour and a technical design review the next, credibly.
• Comfortable with ambiguity and able to set direction for a team when requirements are incomplete or evolving.

How to Stand Out From the Crowd
