Reports To: Vice President (Cloud, API & DevOps)

Duration: Contract to Hire

Salary: 25-35 LPA

We are looking for a highly skilled AI POC Engineer to design, develop, and validate AI/ML proof-of-concepts (POCs) that demonstrate the feasibility and value of AI-driven solutions. The ideal candidate will have strong expertise in machine learning, generative AI, and cloud-based AI services to rapidly prototype and evaluate innovative use cases.

This role focuses on building AI agents, RAG pipelines, fine?tuning LLMs, and rapidly prototyping solutions alongside an experienced AI team.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, build, and validate AI/ML and generative AI POCs to assess feasibility and business impact.
• Leverage pre-trained models, APIs (Azure OpenAI, Gemini, Hugging Face, etc.), and custom ML models for quick iterations.
• Work with structured and unstructured data (text, images, audio, etc.) to clean, preprocess, and engineer features for POCs.
• Ensure data privacy, compliance, and ethical AI practices.
• Experiment with LLMs, computer vision, NLP, or predictive analytics models to determine optimal approaches.
• Evaluate models for accuracy, scalability, latency, and cost-effectiveness.
• Develop APIs or scripts to integrate POCs with existing systems, cloud services, or pipelines.
