Manage vector databases and knowledge graphs supporting AI and RAG workflows.
  • Implement and operate observability systems, covering monitoring, logging, performance tracking, error detection, and dashboards for real-time traceability and business/compliance visibility of AI components.
  • Manage LLM model configurations and deployments, overseeing endpoint setup, version control, integration consistency across environments, and infrastructure optimization for scale, load-balancing, and high availability across environments.
  • Collaborate with MLOps, QA, Data Science, and Product teams to ensure proper configuration, robust testing and continuous improvement of LLM-based features. Engineer compliance-aligned prompts and system rules to reduce false positives and ensure market safety. Integrate user feedback loops to continuously refine prompts, models, personas, and ontologies.

Requirements

  • Proven experience in DevOps environments building AI/ML solutions, including work with LLMs, RAG pipelines, or knowledge graphs.
  • Demonstrable experience in AI application development using no-code/low-code platforms or configuring off-the-shelf solutions together with external partners.
  • Deep understanding of LLM architecture (transformers, embeddings, RAG, multimodal models) and experience fine-tuning LLMs (LoRA, QLoRA, custom datasets). Proven knowledge of ontology management, schema design, and prompt debugging/validation.
  • Hands-on MLOps deployment, model optimization techniques (quantization, compression, inference acceleration) and CI/CD experience.
  • Ability to follow and apply cutting-edge research in LLMs and model safety. Experience with observability systems, API operations, and scalable cloud architectures.
  • Ability to work collaboratively in cross-functional product teams and to communicate technical topics clearly to non-technical stakeholders.
  • Strong analytical, problem-solving, and cross-functional collaboration skills.

Eligibility Requirements

  • Must be legally authorized to work in the United States without restriction.
  • Must be willing to take a drug test and post-offer physical (if required).
  • Must be 18 years of age or older.

Desired Skills, Experience and Abilities
