About the role :

We're hiring a Principal AI Engineer at KreditBee, Bangalore. What if your next role meant building the AI platform that every team in the company builds on? We're looking for a hands-on technical leader to own the design, scaling and future of our AI Platform and Generative AI stack. This is not a slides-and-strategy role. You'll set the architecture and stay close to the code where the critical decisions get made.

What you'll build and lead :

- Enterprise-grade AI platforms for model serving, orchestration and AI-powered workflows.

- Production LLM solutions : fine-tuning, inference optimization, evaluation frameworks.

- Advanced RAG pipelines : ingestion, chunking, embeddings, vector search, reranking.

- Agentic AI : multi-agent systems with tool calling, planning and memory that execute reliably.

- LLMOps/MLOps : deploying, monitoring, versioning and continuously improving models.

- Resilient, low-latency distributed systems on Kubernetes and cloud-native infrastructure.

- Guardrails, governance and cost efficiency for AI at scale.

- The next generation of senior engineers, through mentoring and architecture reviews.

What you bring :

- 10+ years of engineering experience.

- Deep expertise in LLMs, RAG, vector databases and agentic systems.

- Strong Python and production-grade backend skills.

- Proven experience with microservices, event-driven systems, Docker, Kubernetes and CI/CD.

- A track record of taking AI from proof of concept to reliable production.

- Technical leadership : you influence direction across Product, Data Science and ML teams.

Bonus points for :

- Building AI platforms used by multiple teams.

- Experience with model gateways, inference serving and evaluation pipelines.

- Optimizing LLM latency, throughput and token costs.

- AI-specific observability and safety controls.

Location : Bangalore, local candidates only.

Work Mode : Work from office, 5 days a week.

Education : Graduates of Tier 1 institutions.
