Job Description Roles & Responsibilities The Senior AI Engineer is responsible for designing, developing, and deploying Agentic AI solutions and AI-enabled platforms within the Data & AI Lab. The role focuses on building robust AI infrastructure, including integrations with cloud platforms, vector stores, document processing pipelines, and real-time data streaming capabilities. This position requires strong engineering skills to work with AI orchestration frameworks (MCP), cloud services (Azure, GCP), and modern AI tooling. The AI Engineer collaborates closely with AI Product Owners, Data Scientists, and other engineers to deliver production-grade AI solutions supporting banking operations and customer-facing applications. The role bridges AI research and production deployment, ensuring AI capabilities are scalable, maintainable, and aligned with enterprise architecture standards. Key Accountabilities 1. Agentic AI Development Design and implement Agentic AI solutions, including autonomous workflows, multi-agent systems, and AI orchestration patterns. Develop and maintain integrations with Model Context Protocol (MCP) and similar AI orchestration frameworks. Build and optimize AI pipelines that combine multiple AI capabilities into cohesive solutions. 2. AI Platform Engineering Develop and maintain AI platform components, including vector stores, embedding pipelines, and retrieval systems. Implement document parsing, processing, and metadata extraction pipelines for knowledge management and RAG applications. Build and maintain APIs and integration layers for AI services consumption. 3. Cloud & Infrastructure Design and deploy AI solutions on cloud platforms (Azure, GCP) following best practices for scalability and security. Implement data streaming architectures using Kafka for real-time AI applications and event-driven AI workflows. Manage AI infrastructure, including model serving on OpenShift/Kubernetes, monitoring, and performance optimization. 4. Integration & Delivery Develop RESTful APIs and integration patterns for AI services consumption by internal and external applications. Collaborate with IT teams to integrate AI capabilities into existing systems and workflows. Participate in Agile delivery processes (Scrum, Kanban), contributing to sprint planning, code reviews, and continuous improvement. 5. Quality & Standards Ensure AI solutions comply with security, governance, and regulatory requirements. Maintain code quality through testing, documentation, CI/CD practices, and adherence to engineering best practices. Stay current with emerging AI technologies, tools, and frameworks to continuously improve delivery capabilities. Desired Candidate Profile Key Competencies AI & ML Engineering Strong understanding of LLMs, embedding models, and generative AI architectures. Experience with AI orchestration frameworks, agent development, and multi-step AI workflows. Familiarity with vector databases (Azure AI Search, Pinecone, Weaviate, Milvus) and RAG patterns. Knowledge of deep learning frameworks (TensorFlow, PyTorch) and model deployment tools (MLflow, TFX). Software Engineering Advanced Python and relevant AI/ML libraries (LangChain, LlamaIndex, or similar). Experience with API development (REST) and microservices architecture. Advanced SQL skills (Stored Procedures, Window functions, Temp Tables, Recursive Queries). Git (GitHub/GitLab) for version control and code management. Cloud & Data Engineering Experience with cloud platforms (Azure, GCP) and object storage (S3, GCS, ABS). Knowledge of data streaming technologies (Kafka) and workflow orchestration (Airflow, Apache NiFi). Containerization and orchestration using Docker and Kubernetes (OpenShift). Familiarity with Spark for data processing and MLOps practices. Collaboration Ability to work effectively in cross-functional teams with Data Scientists, ML Engineers, and Product Owners. Strong communication skills to explain technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders. Experience working in Agile/Scrum environments (Kanban, Scrum). Requirements Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Data Science, or a related field. 8+ years of experience in software engineering, with at least 2 years focused on AI/ML applications. Hands-on experience with cloud platforms (Azure or GCP) and containerization (Docker, OpenShift/K8s). Experience with document processing, metadata extraction, and knowledge management systems preferred. Banking or financial services industry experience is a plus. Relevant certifications (Azure AI Engineer, GCP ML Engineer) preferred.
