Ai Ml Engineer

We are seeking a Lead AI/ML Engineer with deep expertise in Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Generative AI to lead the design and development of advanced AI-driven solutions in the Electrification domain. You will be part of our cutting-edge AI Solutions team, guiding the architecture and implementation of production-grade LLM and Agentic AI applications. This role focuses on building high-performance Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines, leveraging Knowledge Graphs, and orchestratingmulti-agent systems that scale across enterprisegrade use cases.

Responsibilities:

• Architect and lead the development of NLP and Generative AI solutions, including LLM integration, RAG pipelines, and multi-agent frameworks.
• Design and optimize retrieval systems using knowledge graphs and vector databases, improving contextual accuracy and semantic relevance in RAG workflows.
• Apply advanced techniques (e.g., document chunking strategies, rerankers, hybrid retrieval, query rewriting, feedback loops) to enhance RAG chain precision and reduce hallucinations. Collaborate with ontology/domain experts to integrate structured knowledge bases and semantic relationshipsinto the solution stack.
• Leverage modern frameworks like LangGraph, LangChain, LlamaIndex, SmolAgents, and others for orchestrating agent-based and tool-augmented pipelines.
• Incorporate AWS Bedrock, Sagemaker, Azure ML Studio, Azure OpenAI Service, and Azure AI Foundryfor cloud-native scalability and operational eiciency.
• Ensure high observability and maintainability of AI solutions through robust MLOps practices, logging, and model monitoring.
• Lead code/design reviews, mentor team members, and help shape long-term AI strategy and technical roadmaps.
• Collaborate with product, cloud, software, and data engineering teams to deploy impactful AI capabilities in real-world settings.

Required Qualifications:

• Bachelors or Masters degree in Computer Science, Machine Learning, AI, or a related field.
• 7+ years of AI/ML experience, with 34 years in NLP, and 2+ years in Generative AI applications. Expertise in designing production-grade RAG systems, including single-agent and multi-agent architectures.
• Solid understanding of LLM internals, prompt engineering, fine-tuning (LoRA, PEFT), and use of open-source and hosted foundation models.
• Experience with Knowledge Graphs, graph databases (e.g., Neo4j), and semantic enrichment strategies.
• Proficiency in Python and hands-on experience with frameworks like LangGraph, LlamaIndex, Transformers, and SmolAgents.
• Knowledge of vector databases (e.g., Azure AI Search, FAISS, Weaviate, Pinecone) and search optimization techniques.
• Familiarity with model observability tools, evaluation frameworks, and performance diagnostics. Strong experience with AWS and/or Azure managed services for AI development.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience incorporating ontologies, taxonomies, and domain-specific schemas in knowledge enhanced AI systems.
• Prior exposure to industrial AI or Electrification/Power sector challenges is a strong plus.
• Knowledge of hybrid retrieval techniques combining symbolic and statistical methods.
• Strong stakeholder engagement and mentoring capabilities.
• Familiarity with compliance, safety, and ethical considerations in LLM deployments.
