Artificial Intelligence Senior Associate

Skills Required:
Google Cloud Platform

Experience Required:
Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related field (or equivalent practical experience). 3+ years building production software systems, including 1–2+ years on ML/AI or LLM-based applications. Proven experience designing and deploying multi-agent or multi-service architectures in production — not just notebooks or demos. As one 2026 hiring analysis puts it, the job is closer to distributed systems engineering with a probabilistic component than it is to ML research or prompt tweaking . Strong Python proficiency, including async/concurrent programming, and experience with backend frameworks (FastAPI, Flask). Hands-on experience with agent orchestration frameworks — LangGraph, CrewAI, LlamaIndex, or equivalent — for building stateful, multi-step, tool-using agent workflows. Practical experience building RAG pipelines: vector databases (pgvector, Pinecone, Weaviate, or Qdrant), embeddings, chunking strategies, and retrieval evaluation. Cloud deployment experience, ideally Google Cloud Platform (BigQuery, Cloud Run/GKE, Vertex AI, Pub/Sub) or equivalent AWS/Azure services. Strong SQL skills and experience with cloud data warehouses. Containerization and CI/CD experience (Docker, Kubernetes, GitHub Actions/Cloud Build). Experience building evaluation and observability pipelines for LLM/agent systems — offline eval sets, LLM-as-judge scoring, and tracing tools (LangSmith, Langfuse, OpenTelemetry, or equivalent) to track task success, latency, and cost. Understanding of LLM safety practices: guardrails, output validation, prompt-injection defense, and safe execution of AI-generated code/SQL (sandboxing, least privilege). Solid software engineering fundamentals: API design, testing, version control, security best practices.
