Key Responsibilities:
- Design, implement, and optimize Generative AI applications using Python and frameworks such as FastAPI.
- Build AI solutions using LLM frameworks like LlamaIndex and LangChain.
- Implement containerized deployments using Docker.
- Develop and optimize Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines for improved information retrieval.
- Work with self-hosted and cloud-based vector databases for efficient search and retrieval.
- Design and manage knowledge graphs and graph-based RAG systems.
- Implement re-ranking models and retrieval optimization techniques.
- Apply prompt engineering and context engineering to enhance model performance.
- Establish guardrails to ensure safe, ethical, and compliant AI deployments.
- Build data preprocessing and transformation pipelines for structured and unstructured data.
- Perform inference using offline LLMs via platforms like Ollama or Hugging Face (Llama, Mistral).
- Integrate online LLM providers such as OpenAI, Anthropic, or GCP for real-time inference.
- Monitor AI workflows using observability tools like MLflow or Arize Phoenix.
- Evaluate model performance using frameworks such as TruLens or custom-built evaluation systems.
- Continuously improve AI systems based on evaluation insights, metrics, and user feedback.
Skills for a Generative AI Engineer:
- Experience building Generative AI applications using Python and FastAPI.
