Full Description

Job Description We are at the forefront of developing cutting-edge AI solutions that push the boundaries of machine learning, LLM applications, and agentic AI. Our team builds real-world AI systems and deploys scalable, production-ready solutions across Oracle's enterprise customers. We are seeking a highly experienced engineer to contribute to the design and deployment of advanced AI systems, including LLM-powered agents, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines, and structured AI workflows. As part of our growing team, you will evaluate, prototype, and optimize next-generation agentic AI technologies. This role is ideal for individuals passionate about building and delivering AI solutions that are accurate, reliable, and trusted at enterprise scale. You will play a key role in advancing Oracle's AI strategy-especially in LLMs, Generative AI, and intelligent agent-driven applications. Responsibilities AI & LLM System Development • Design, implement, and deploy AI-driven applications using STOA LLM, Oracle GenAI technologies, and agent evaluation frameworks. • Build and optimize LLM-powered agents for industry-specific workflows. • Implement RAG pipelines, structured outputs, and function/tool calling to enable grounded, traceable, and multi-step reasoning. • Select, version, and optimize foundation models and prompt strategies to meet privacy, latency, cost, and safety objectives. • Implement guardrails, uncertainty handling, human-in-the-loop processes, and evidence-grounded citations. • Adapt LLMs to customer domains using prompt engineering, instruction tuning, preference optimization, and domain-specific data. Evaluation & Quality Assurance • Evaluate AI methods on industry-relevant datasets to ensure outputs are accurate, reliable, and trustworthy. • Maintain evaluation harnesses, regression tests, and golden datasets to monitor model performance. • Conduct systematic error analysis, bias assessments, red-teaming, and active learning to improve quality and close gaps. • Present insights and findings to internal and external technical audiences. Data & Platform Engineering • Integrate search and NLP technologies, including semantic search, conversational search, and summarization. • Work with Oracle Vector Database and other retrieval systems to optimize AI performance. • Build and optimize ETL/ELT pipelines and scalable data flows supporting domain adaptation. • Ensure data security, privacy, and compliance with PHI/PII regulations across all AI workflows. Production & Cloud-Native Operations • Productionize AI services with CI/CD pipelines, containerization, orchestration, and autoscaling. • Instrument traces, metrics, and logs across prompts, retrieval, tools, agents, and model outputs. • Enforce SLAs through canary and blue-green rollouts with safe rollback procedures. • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to scale AI offerings across enterprise environments. • Mentor engineers and foster a culture of engineering excellence. Software Development & Tooling • Develop and maintain robust software toolkits in Python, Node.js, and Java to support applied scientists in building, testing, and deploying ML models and agent frameworks. • Design and implement cloud-based services and APIs for model execution, orchestration, asynchronous communication, and multimodal workflows. • Produce well-structured sample code and reference implementations, including integrations with LLM APIs, to promote best practices. • Apply deep knowledge of algorithms, data structures, concurrent programming, and distributed systems to build high-performance and maintainable software. Collaboration & Technical Leadership • Partner closely with applied scientists, platform engineers, and cloud infrastructure teams to gather requirements and deliver frictionless ML workflows. • Produce clear and comprehensive documentation for infrastructure, APIs, designs, troubleshooting, and best practices. • Participate in code reviews, provide mentorship, incorporate feedback, and help shape engineering standards. • Conduct systematic error analysis, bias assessments, red-teaming exercises, and active learning to continuously improve quality and close gaps. • Stay current with emerging trends in AI infrastructure, agent frameworks, HPC systems, and cloud-native technologies; evaluate and integrate them where appropriate. Qualifications • Minimum of 12 years of experience in software engineering or AI/ML system development. • Proven expertise in agentic workflows, LLMOps, RAG architectures, or intelligent automation. • Strong experience with distributed, high-performance, or cloud-native systems. • Proficiency in Python and Node.js and familiarity with modern ML/AI libraries. • Experience with vector databases (Oracle Vector Database preferred). • Experience deploying AI applications/services on AWS, Azure, Google Cloud Platform, or OCI. • Demonstrated experience in data collection, annotation, evaluation pipelines, and systematic AI model validation. • Experience building 0 1 products in fast-paced, ambiguous environments. • Leadership experience mentoring senior and early-career engineers or scientists. • Strong communication, problem-solving, and collaboration skills. • Commitment to staying current with advancements in LLMs, Generative AI, and cloud-native AI/ML technologies.
