About the Role

As an AI Architect, you will make an impact by designing, building, and scaling production-grade GenAI systems with Python at the core and AWS platforms.

  • Establish observability and evaluation frameworks for LLM Ops, including tracing and monitoring.

  • Hands-on delivery of RAG systems and agentic workflows.
  • Strong experience with AWS/Azure/GCP for AI workloads, containers, and Kubernetes.

  • Familiarity with observability tools for LLMs (LangSmith, Langfuse, Arize Phoenix).
