Senior AI Engineer (GenAI & Agentic Systems)
Indexed description
We are seeking a highly experienced and hands-on Senior AI Engineer (GenAI & Agentic Systems) to lead the design, development, and scaling of next-generation Agentic AI systems and GenAI applications. In this role, you will own the technical direction of complex AI solutions, bridging cutting-edge LLM capabilities with robust, production-grade software.
You will architect multi-agent systems, define best practices for RAG pipelines, and lead the development of scalable backend and cloud-native infrastructure on Google Cloud Platform (GCP). This role requires both deep technical expertise and the ability to guide teams in building reliable, secure, and high-performing AI systems.
Key Responsibilities
Agentic AI & GenAI Architecture
- Lead the design and implementation of advanced agentic architectures, including multi-agent orchestration, tool usage, planning, memory management, and self-reflection patterns using platforms such as Google ADK.
- Define and standardize RAG architectures, including retrieval strategies, context engineering, hybrid search, re-ranking, and optimization of latency, accuracy, and cost.
- Establish prompt engineering standards and governance, ensuring consistency, reliability, and scalability across use cases.
- Design and implement evaluation frameworks to measure model performance (hallucination rates, precision/recall, response quality).
- Define observability strategies for multi-agent systems, including tracing, debugging, and performance monitoring.
- Architect and oversee development of scalable, asynchronous backend systems and APIs using FastAPI or similar frameworks.
- Define best practices for system integration, enabling AI agents to interact securely with enterprise systems, APIs, and external tools.
- Ensure high standards in software design, modularity, performance, and reliability across services.
- Lead the design and deployment of cloud-native AI solutions on GCP, ensuring scalability, resilience, and cost optimization.
- Define containerization and orchestration strategies using Docker and Kubernetes (GKE).
- Establish and improve CI/CD pipelines, testing frameworks, and release processes for AI systems.
- Oversee database architecture, including vector search (pgvector) and relational data management.
- Provide technical leadership and mentorship to engineers, promoting best practices in AI/ML and software engineering.
- Collaborate with product, data, and engineering teams to translate business needs into scalable AI solutions.
- Drive architecture decisions, code reviews, and technical standards across projects.
- Ensure alignment with security, privacy, and governance standards, especially for GenAI applications.
- 5+ years of software engineering experience, with 2–3+ years building and deploying production-grade AI/LLM systems.
- Expert-level proficiency in Python, including asynchronous programming (AsyncIO).
- Strong experience designing and implementing RAG pipelines, vector search, and GenAI systems.
- Proven experience architecting multi-agent systems or complex AI workflows.
- Deep experience with FastAPI (or similar frameworks) for building scalable backend services.
- Strong knowledge of PostgreSQL and vector databases (pgvector or equivalent).
- Hands-on experience with GCP, including deploying and managing applications in cloud-native environments.
- Strong experience with Docker, Kubernetes (GKE), and CI/CD pipelines.
- Solid understanding of distributed systems, API design, and software architecture principles.
- Experience implementing evaluation, monitoring, and observability for AI systems.
- Strong communication skills and ability to work in cross-functional teams.
- English proficiency – B2+/C1 preferred.
- Hands-on experience with Google ADK (Agent Development Kit) or similar agent orchestration frameworks.
- Experience with real-time systems, including streaming responses (WebSockets, SSE).
- Familiarity with additional GenAI frameworks (e.g., LangChain, LlamaIndex) for broader architectural perspectives.
- Experience implementing security, guardrails, and PII protection in AI systems.
- Background in scaling AI systems in enterprise environments.
- Experience leading or contributing to architecture design reviews and technical roadmaps.
- Professional growth
- Dynamic work environment
- Competitive salary
- Attractive benefits plan
- Benefits of law and superiors
- Development opportunities
