Job description
Structured overview of role & requirements
About This Role
- Build and operate secure, production-grade Python AI agents, including reusable orchestration, RAG, memory, tool-use and multi-agent components.
- Integrate AI with connected products, telematics, embedded systems and enterprise services while enforcing identity, access and data-protection controls.
- Set agentic-AI engineering standards for Connectivity; establish evaluation and observability practices and measure operational and engineering outcomes.
Minimum Requirements
- Work Experience Required: 10+ years of professional software development, including at least 2 years of hands-on AI, generative AI or agentic AI work.
- Bachelor’s or master’s degree in computer science, engineering or a related field.
- Hands-on experience building generative AI or LLM applications using RAG, tool calling, agent orchestration or similar patterns.
- Experience taking software or AI solutions from prototype through production deployment and support, plus Git, modern CI/CD and automated testing; Chennai role requires 5 days in office.
Ideal Candidate Profile
- Has shipped LLM capabilities in production, particularly RAG/vector search, agentic workflows or specialized software-engineering agents; familiarity with LangGraph, LangChain, Semantic Kernel, CrewAI or similar is a plus.
- Can build for cloud-native and high-volume environments, with experience in Azure, AWS or GCP, event-driven processing, containers or infrastructure-as-code.
- Brings connected-product or industrial-domain experience—such as IoT, telematics, connected equipment, MQTT or device-to-cloud integration—and can work within security and governance constraints.
