AI Engineer Santa Clara, CA

About the Role:

We are seeking a highly skilled and innovative AI Engineer to join our team and lead the development of intelligent AI agents and RAG-based applications.

This role is ideal for someone passionate about pushing the boundaries of applied AI, with hands-on experience in building scalable, production-grade GenAI systems.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Demonstrate advanced programming expertise, particularly in Python, with deep proficiency in AI-centric libraries such as TensorFlow and PyTorch.
  • Architect and implement Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines to enhance model performance using external knowledge sources.
  • Design, develop, and deploy AI agents capable of autonomous decision-making and task execution using LLMs and multi-modal models.
  • Implement and manipulate complex algorithms essential for developing and optimizing generative AI models.
  • Manage data pipelines involving data pre-processing, augmentation, and synthetic data generation to enhance model training and performance.
  • Ensure robust data handling practices including cleaning, labelling, and structuring datasets for generative AI workflows. Required Qualifications:
  • Bachelor's or master's degree in computer science, AI/ML, or related field.
  • 3+ years of experience in AI/ML engineering, with at least 1 year focused on Generative AI.
  • Hands-on experience with RAG architectures, including document chunking, embedding generation, and retrieval systems.
  • Proficiency in Python and familiarity with libraries such as Hugging Face, Transformers, OpenAI API, and PyTorch or TensorFlow.
  • Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud Platform) and containerization (Docker, Kubernetes).
  • Strong understanding of LLM capabilities, limitations, and prompt engineering techniques.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience with fine-tuning LLMs or training custom models.
  • Familiarity with multi-modal AI (text, image, audio).
  • Contributions to open-source GenAI projects or publications in AI conferences.
  • Experience with CI/CD pipelines for ML model deployment.
