What you need to have to be considered

  • Integrate solutions seamlessly with business platforms and enterprise systems.
  • Mentor and upskill a cross-functional team in AI, machine learning, and automation best practices.

  • Ensure adherence to enterprise architecture standards, technical governance, and emerging best practices.
  • Partner with business stakeholders, data scientists, engineers, and platform specialists to deliver impactful, scalable solutions.
  • Communicate complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Align project outcomes with business objectives and customer success.

These will help you stand out

  • Minimum 8 years of professional experience, with at least 5 years in AI, Machine Learning, Data Science, and / or Automation roles.
  • Hands-on experience architecting and building Agentic AI solutions, including the design and deployment of multi-agent systems and autonomous workflows.
  • Demonstrated expertise in developing and deploying enterprise-grade Generative AI solutions, such as Large Language Models (LLMs), Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) architectures, and multi-modal AI applications.
  • Proven ability to deliver AI-powered document understanding, including data extraction, intelligence, and conversion at scale.
  • Advanced programming proficiency in Python.
  • Strong experience with cloud-based AI / ML services (Azure, GCP, or AWS), including end-to-end solution deployment.
  • Deep understanding of data pipelines, model deployment processes, and MLOps best practices.
  • Track record of mentoring technical teams in AI solution delivery.
  • Excellent communication, documentation, and stakeholder management skills.
