- Develop LLM-powered automation that integrates with client systems such as CRMs, internal data sources and APIs
- Build AI analytics assistants that answer natural-language business questions
- Productionize models with MLOps/LLMOps practices: deployment, monitoring, retraining and evaluation
- Gather requirements from client stakeholders and turn them into architecture and delivery plans
- Mentor and technically guide a small team (up to ~6 engineers) and review designs and code
- Write clear technical documentation and communicate progress to stakeholders.

- Strong written and verbal communication, and comfort working directly with clients
Preferred
- MCP, tool/function calling, A2A, hybrid search, reranking
- LLM evaluation (RAGAS, LLM-as-a-judge)
