Job Description

Salary: $120,000 - 160,000 per year Requirements:

• We need proven experience designing Agentic AI systems that can reason, plan, and act across multiple systems.
• We require hands-on experience building enterprise LLM applications, including RAG, tool use, orchestration, and evaluation.
• We are looking for strong NLP experience working with unstructured text and language-driven workflows.
• We require an MS or PhD in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Data Science, or a related quantitative field.
• We need 3+ years of experience delivering AI/ML solutions in production environments.
• We require 5+ years of hands-on Python experience; distributed data processing experience is a plus.
• We value a strong ability to solve business problems with AI, not just build models.
• We need excellent communication skills with the ability to explain complex concepts to technical and non-technical audiences.
• We require experience working in cross-functional enterprise environments.

• We partner with business stakeholders to identify, define, and prioritize high-value problems that can be addressed with Agentic AI, LLMs, and NLP.
• We translate business needs into clear AI use cases, success measures, and delivery plans.
• We keep our focus on business outcomes rather than model performance alone.
• We architect and develop agentic AI systems that can reason, plan, and take action across tools, workflows, and data sources.
• We design multi-agent and tool-augmented LLM solutions to automate complex, multi-step processes.
• We ensure our solutions are reliable, explainable, and governed for enterprise use.
• We collaborate with engineering teams to deploy AI solutions with scalability, security, and performance in mind.
• We implement evaluation, monitoring, and guardrails for LLM and agentic systems, including bias, drift, and failure modes.
• We align our solutions with enterprise risk management, compliance, and responsible AI standards.
• We act as trusted AI advisors, helping teams understand where Agentic AI and LLMs add value and where they do not.
• We contribute to AI best practices, reusable patterns, and strategic direction.
• We mentor peers and teammates on applied AI and business-driven problem solving.
