About the Role
Join our AI team building real AI features used in business workflows. Youll work closely with the AI Team Lead and prioritize delivery reliability (60/40 delivery-to-exploration): monitoring, rollbacks, performance tuning, and repeatable improvements. Success is features that operators trust, engineers can reproduce, and stakeholders can measure. If you enjoy turning AI capabilities into reliable products—not just demos—youll fit well here.
Responsibilities:
- Keep LLM and ML/DL features healthy in production: monitor, troubleshoot, rollback, and improve operational reliability for day-to-day usage.
- Improve performance with numbers: benchmark latency, throughput, and cost; iterate changes and report measurable wins.
- Ship confidently: package releases with containers, configs, and artifacts; ensure reproducible deployments and safe rollbacks every time.
- Build a practical evaluation & iteration loop: datasets (as needed), test cases, acceptance criteria, and regression checks tied to clear quality and cost targets.
- Collaborate frequently with the AI Team Lead; explain trade-offs clearly and maintain lightweight decision notes for shared alignment.
Requirements (Must-Have)
- Strong Python, Kubernetes, Linux, and production debugging experience; able to deliver and operate LLM and ML/DL features in production environments.
- Proven track record shipping LLM and ML/DL services or workflows with monitoring, rollback strategy, and quantified outcomes.
- Hands-on performance profiling skills; resolve timeouts, OOMs where applicable, performance bottlenecks, and stability issues through evidence-based iteration.
- Write clear runbooks and postmortems; communicate trade-offs crisply to managers, engineers, and non-ML stakeholders.
Nice-to-Have
- Experience designing evaluation frameworks for LLM features: offline test sets, online metrics, etc., including acceptance criteria and regression checks.
- Experience instrumenting AI features with tracing and observability: request IDs, prompt and context logging policy, latency breakdown, failure taxonomy.
- Hands-on incident response: postmortems, runbooks, on-call, etc. for production services.
- Familiar with prompt injection and data exfiltration risks in RAG systems and practical mitigations: input sanitization, allowlists, tool permissions, content filters, etc.
- Experience with workflow orchestration or task queues: Airflow, DVC, dbt, Prefect, Celery, etc. for LLM and ML/DL pipelines.
- Practical fine-tuning experience with SFT, PEFT and LoRA is a plus; not required now but helpful for future growth.
