We are a people-focused, growth-oriented, and innovation-driven organization. We're looking for passionate builders like you who want to make a meaningful impact and help shape the future of AI-powered financial services.

About the role

We are seeking an experienced AI Engineer with strong expertise in Python, Large Language Models (LLMs), Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), Vector Databases, and end-to-end AI system development. You will design, build, and deploy AI-driven applications, leveraging state-of-the-art machine learning techniques and modern cloud technologies.The ideal candidate is analytical, detail-oriented, and skilled in building scalable AI systems—from data ingestion and model orchestration to deployment, monitoring, and optimization.

What you will do

• Work closely with product, engineering, and business teams to understand requirements and translate them into AI-driven solutions.
• Architect, develop, and deploy robust LLM-based applications, including custom pipelines, prompt engineering, and fine-tuning when needed.
• Build RAG systems using embedding models, vector search, and optimized retrieval pipelines.
• Design and manage Vector Databases (e.g., Pinecone, Chroma, Weaviate, Qdrant) to support scalable semantic search and knowledge retrieval.
• Develop high-quality Python applications, APIs, and automation workflows that integrate AI models into production systems.
• Implement data pipelines for ingestion, preprocessing, metadata enrichment, and evaluation.
• Optimize LLM performance, latency, cost, and accuracy through model selection, quantization, caching, and other engineering strategies.
• Deploy AI workloads to cloud platforms (AWS/Azure), including serverless and container-based environments.
• Conduct comprehensive testing, debugging, and performance tuning for AI services.
• Maintain documentation across the AI development lifecycle—design, experiments, deployment, and monitoring.
• Stay current with emerging AI research and tooling and apply best practices to enhance internal AI capabilities.

What We're looking for

Required Qualifications

• BE/BTech degree in Computer Science, AI/ML, Information Technology, or related field.
• 4+ years of professional experience in software engineering, ML engineering, or AI application development.
• Strong hands-on experience with Python, FastAPI/Flask, and microservices.
• Expertise in LLMs (GPT, Llama, Mistral, etc.) and modern AI frameworks.
• Experience building RAG pipelines, including embeddings, retrievers, chunking strategies, and context optimization.
• Proficiency with Vector Databases such as Pinecone, Chroma, Weaviate, Qdrant, FAISS, etc.
• Strong understanding of prompt engineering, model orchestration, and evaluation techniques.
• Solid experience with REST APIs, asynchronous processing, and cloud-native architecture.
• Knowledge of SQL and NoSQL databases and data modeling.
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines, Git, and automated testing.
• Understanding of MLOps principles, feature stores, and model deployment workflows.
• Strong debugging skills, analytical thinking, and attention to detail.
• Excellent communication and collaboration abilities.

Nice to Have

• Experience fine-tuning or training custom LLMs.
• Knowledge of LangChain, LlamaIndex, or similar orchestration frameworks.
• Understanding of AWS/Azure AI services, serverless architecture, and containerization (Docker/Kubernetes).
• Familiarity with data engineering pipelines, ETL processes, and streaming frameworks.
• Experience with Generative AI for text, speech, or multimodal applications.
• Background in NLP, information retrieval, or knowledge graphs.

What's in it for you:

• Competitive salary
• Full benefits package
• Paid time off (PTO)
• Holiday pay
• Career growth and learning opportunities in advanced AI technologies
• Opportunity to shape the future of AI in the mortgage and financial services domain
