Position Overview - Senior/Principal Applied AI Engineer :

We are establishing an Agentic AI Center of Excellence (CoE) to design, build, and deploy the next generation of autonomous digital workers across RAAPID. We are seeking pragmatic, high-velocity Senior Applied AI Engineers, and Principal Applied AI Engineers to join this specialized team as core "Builders." This is a pure Individual Contributor (IC) track designed for engineers who love being hands-on with code and shipping production AI systems.

As a Builder, you will not just write code in a sandbox - you will own the entire lifecycle of your creations. You will be responsible for building AI agents, deploying them to production, maintaining their operational health, and continuously improving their accuracy, cost-efficiency, and user experience based on real-world usage and structured evaluation. You will work closely with CoE Champions (functional sponsors across Sales, Marketing, Product, Operations, HR, Legal, and Finance) and Translators (understanding of product + building) to convert business workflows into production-grade agentic systems that move the needle on revenue, efficiency, and quality of care.

Key Responsibilities :

- End-to-End Lifecycle Ownership : Build, deploy, maintain, and improve autonomous AI agents, custom API tools, and RAG pipelines.

- Technical Implementation : Manage agentic frameworks, data integration (vector databases/knowledge graphs), and API tooling for enterprise systems.

- AI Reasoning & Guardrails : Define evaluation frameworks (Evals), implement security guardrails, and optimize cost/latency for production SLOs.

- Cross-Functional Collaboration : Partner with CoE Translators and business units to convert workflows into production-ready agent architectures.

Required Qualifications :

- Technical Degree : Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related field.

- Provable Portfolio : Strong GitHub profile with 3-5 repositories demonstrating LLM/AI API integration.

- Senior Applied AI Engineer (IC) : 5+ years of professional software engineering experience, with 2+ years in production AI systems.

- Principal Applied AI Engineer (IC) : 8+ years of professional software engineering experience, with 3+ years in production-grade agentic systems.

Technical Skills :

- Languages : Python (highly preferred), SQL, Node.js / TypeScript.

- AI Frameworks : LangChain, LlamaIndex, AutoGen, CrewAI, LangGraph, Semantic Kernel.

- Databases : PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Pinecone, Qdrant, Neo4j.

- Cloud : Azure (preferred), AWS, or GCP.

Location : Ahmedabad, India.

What We Offer :

- Competitive compensation package commensurate with level and experience.

- Opportunity to be a founding member of a high-impact Agentic AI Center of Excellence.

- Access to modern computational resources and frontier model APIs.

- A clear Individual Contributor growth path.

- A collaborative, fast-paced, and highly innovative work environment.
