• Implement guardrails, structured outputs, and validation layers

Production Engineering

• Build scalable backend services using FastAPI
• Orchestrate agentic workflows using LangGraph
• Deploy and manage AI workloads within AWS or Azure

Optimize model performance, reliability, and cost

Evaluation & Continuous Improvement

• Develop rigorous evaluation pipelines measuring:

  • Citation adherence
  • Latency
  • Reliability
• Establish metric-driven iteration cycles
• Continuously refine deployed systems based on measurable outcomes
  

Privacy-First Development

• Embed privacy-by-design principles across the AI stack

• You're comfortable navigating ambiguity and creating clarity for others.
• You're excited about privacy, responsible AI, and building trustworthy technology.
