  • Monitor AI systems in production and proactively address issues related to hallucinations, latency, reliability, scalability, and token‑cost optimization.
  • Collaborate closely with AI Architects, AI Studio Leads, ML Engineers, Data Scientists, Full‑Stack Developers, Service Line Labs, and Citizen Developers on firm‑wide initiatives and internal platforms.
  • Support AI system documentation, lifecycle management, and control processes in alignment with ISO/IEC 42001 enterprise governance requirements.
  • Adhere to established AI risk management, data governance, and security policies, and assist with model inventories, traceability, and change‑management activities.
  • Participate in model testing and validation activities in accordance with the NIST AI Risk Management Framework, including mapping and measuring model risks.

  • Deep hands‑on experience with leading AI and LLM frameworks, including OpenAI APIs, Anthropic, Hugging Face, and LangGraph, along with a strong understanding of LLM‑based application design.
  • Proven experience designing and implementing retrieval‑augmented generation (RAG) and agentic AI systems, supported by a solid grasp of scalable, production‑grade AI architectures.
  • Experience working with vector databases as well as SQL and NoSQL data stores, and hands‑on exposure to cloud platforms such as Azure AI / AI Foundry, AWS Bedrock, or Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
  • Practical experience with DevOps and MLOps practices, including Docker, Kubernetes, and CI/CD pipelines for machine learning workloads.
