- Collaborate with other developers to enhance the developer experience when building and deploying AI applications.
- Have a platform mindset and build common, reusable solutions to scale Generative AI use cases using pre-trained models as well as fine-tuned models.
- Leverage Kubernetes/OpenShift to develop modern containerized workloads.
- Leverage container registries like JFrog artifactory, container packaging/configuration management technologies like Helm & Kustomize, and GitOps deployment methods to orchestrate, manage and deploy these workloads.
- Integrate with capabilities such as large-scale vector stores for embeddings.
- Author best practices on the Generative AI ecosystem, when to use which tools, available models such as GPT, Llama, Hugging Face etc. and libraries such as Langchain.
- Analyze, investigate, and implement GenAI solutions focusing on Agentic Orchestration and Agent Builder frameworks.
- Contribute to major design decisions and product selection for building Generative AI solutions. Inclusive of app authentication, service communication, state externalization, container layering strategy and immutability.
- Ensure AI platform are reliable, scalable, and operational; (e.g. blueprints for upgrade/release strategies (E.g. Blue/Green); logging/monitoring/metrics; automation of system management tasks)
- Participate in all team's Agile/ Scrum ceremonies.
