Job Description

Production AI Agents, Enterprise RAG, Python, and Azure/AWS

Mandatory Screening Criteria :Top PriorityCandidates must meet all of the following requirements:

  • 10+ years of overall software engineering experience, with strong hands-on coding and system-design capability.
  • Minimum 7 years of AI/ML experience, including recent, practical experience in Generative AI, LLMs, RAG, and Agentic AI solutions.
  • 10+ years of product development experience, with ownership across design, development, testing, deployment, production support, and enhancement.
  • Proven experience working as an individual contributor-able to independently design, develop, test, deploy, and troubleshoot production-grade AI applications.
  • Prior experience in banking, financial services, fintech, payments, or other regulated financial environments is mandatory.
  • Immediate joiners or candidates with very short notice periods are preferred.
  • Hands-on experience using GitHub Copilot as part of the software-development lifecycle, including code development, test generation, code review support, documentation, and productivity improvement.
  • Hands-on experience integrating Agentic AI solutions with enterprise tools and APIs, including Splunk, Grafana, bank internal applications, databases, document repositories, and workflow platforms.
  • Experience building tool-enabled agents using secure API/function calling, authentication, access controls, audit logs, error handling, and human approval workflows.
  • Strong expertise in Fast RAG and Graph RAG architectures, including hybrid retrieval, reranking, metadata filtering, knowledge graphs, semantic search, and context-grounded responses.
  • Practical experience in LLM token optimisation, including prompt/context optimisation, intelligent chunking, retrieval filtering, model selection, caching, response streaming, latency optimisation, and cost monitoring.
  • Experience with LLM harness engineering—designing reusable prompt templates, structured-output schemas, evaluation datasets, automated test harnesses, regression testing, and quality metrics for LLM/agent workflows.
  • Knowledge of Model Context Protocol (MCP) for securely connecting AI agents to enterprise tools, data sources, and APIs through governed, reusable tool interfaces.

Role Overview
We are looking for a hands-on Senior Agentic AI Engineer to design, build, and deploy enterprise AI solutions that go beyond chatbots and prompt-based applications. The ideal candidate will have proven experience developing stateful, tool-enabled agents, supported by strong Python engineering, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), evaluation, and cloud deployment skills.This is an engineering-focused role requiring ownership from architecture and implementation through testing, production deployment, and continuous improvement.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design and implement multi-step agent workflows involving planning, tool selection, API execution, decision-making, and response validation.
  • Build agent orchestration using LangGraph or equivalent frameworks, including state management, conversational memory, conditional routing, retries, and human-in-the-loop approvals.
  • Integrate agents with enterprise REST APIs, databases, document repositories, and business applications using secure tool/function calling.
  • Develop enterprise RAG pipelines covering document ingestion, semantic chunking, embeddings, hybrid retrieval, metadata filtering, reranking, and grounded responses with citations.
  • Implement evaluation frameworks for agent task completion, tool-call correctness, retrieval quality, faithfulness, hallucinations, latency, and cost.
  • Develop production-ready Python services using FastAPI, Docker, automated testing, CI/CD, logging, and monitoring.
  • Apply security controls for prompt injection, sensitive-data handling, access permissions, and safe execution of agent actions.
  • Collaborate with business stakeholders to translate requirements into reliable AI workflows with measurable outcomes.Role OverviewWe are seeking a hands-on Senior Agentic AI Engineer / AI Developer to build secure, scalable, production-grade AI solutions for banking and financial-services use cases.
  • The role requires an experienced individual contributor who can independently translate business requirements into reliable Agentic AI products.
  • The successful candidate must have delivered solutions beyond basic chatbots or prompt-based applications, including multi-step AI agents, tool/API calling, state management, RAG, evaluation frameworks, guardrails, and enterprise deployment.
  • Key Responsibilities:
  • Independently design, develop, test, deploy, and maintain Agentic AI applications for banking and financial-services use cases.
  • Build multi-step AI agents that can plan tasks, call approved APIs/tools, use structured outputs, retain workflow state, manage failures, and escalate actions for human approval.
  • Develop agent orchestration workflows using LangGraph, LangChain, or equivalent frameworks, including memory, conditional routing, retries, error handling, and auditability.
  • Build enterprise-grade RAG platforms for policies, procedures, product documents, regulatory content, operational manuals, and knowledge repositories.
  • Implement document ingestion, OCR/content extraction, chunking, embeddings, vector search, hybrid retrieval, reranking, metadata filtering, and response citations.
  • Integrate LLM solutions securely with enterprise REST APIs, databases, workflow systems, document stores, and business applications.
  • Develop Python-based backend services and APIs using FastAPI or equivalent frameworks.
  • Use GitHub Copilot effectively and responsibly to improve engineering productivity, code quality, documentation, test coverage, and code-review efficiency.
  • Implement LLM and agent evaluation frameworks covering task completion, answer relevance, retrieval quality, faithfulness, hallucination detection, tool-call accuracy, latency, and cost.
  • Apply AI security and governance controls, including prompt-injection protection, PII/data masking, access control, permission-aware tool calling, audit logging, and human-in-the-loop approvals.
  • Deploy containerised AI services using Docker, CI/CD pipelines, logging, monitoring, alerting, and performance optimisation.
  • Work closely with product owners, architects, security teams, risk/compliance teams, and business stakeholders to deliver measurable outcomes.
  • AI, Generative AI, and Agentic AI
  • Minimum 7 years of practical AI/ML experience, with substantial recent experience in Generative AI and LLM application development.
  • Demonstrable experience building production-grade Agentic AI solutions, not only chatbots or RAG-based Q&A applications.
  • Hands-on experience with:
  • LLMs, prompt engineering, structured outputs, and function/tool calling
  • LangGraph, LangChain, or equivalent agent orchestration frameworks
  • Agent state, conversational memory, workflow persistence, conditional routing, retries, and failure handling
  • Human-in-the-loop approvals and escalation workflows
  • Single-agent and multi-agent architecture patterns
  • RAG, vector databases, semantic search, hybrid search, metadata filtering, and reranking
  • LLM evaluation, LLM-as-a-Judge, hallucination detection, faithfulness testing, and human evaluation

Cloud, Deployment, and MLOps

  • Experience with Azure OpenAI, OpenAI APIs, AWS Bedrock, or equivalent enterprise LLM platforms.
  • Strong experience with Azure or AWS cloud services, preferably including secure enterprise deployments.
  • Experience developing REST APIs using FastAPI, Flask, or equivalent frameworks.
  • Experience with Docker, containerisation, CI/CD, environment management, logging, monitoring, and production support.
  • Experience with vector databases such as Azure Cosmos DB Vector Search, Azure AI Search, Pinecone, Weaviate, FAISS, Elasticsearch, or equivalent.
