JOB ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES

 

Enhance AI Operations

• Utilize generative AI to streamline processes and tools, enabling faster and more effective development and deployment.
• Build scalable GenAI infrastructure with Terraform, Docker, Helm, and Kubernetes (OKE, AKS, and OCI-native services such as OCI Data Science, OCI AI Infrastructure, and OCI Streaming).
• Architect hybrid AI systems across OCI, Azure, and on-prem GPU clusters, ensuring seamless data and model orchestration.
• Automate model pipelines (training → fine-tuning → inference) using Jenkins, GitHub Actions, and MLflow integrated with OCI Object Storage and OCI DevOps.
• Serve multimodal LLMs with vLLM, Triton, and Streamlit dashboards deployed on OCI Container Engine for Kubernetes (OKE) and optimized for OCI GPUs.
• Deploy secure RAG-based microservices backed by Vector DBs, Databricks, and OCI AI Services (e.g., Data Labeling, Generative AI APIs) and private LLM gateways.

Lead R&D Efforts

• Drive research and development using generative AI to create reusable code components and establish best practices for OCI-based MLOps and AI infrastructure.

Stakeholder Collaboration

• Partner with stakeholders to identify opportunities for new AI-driven products through data insights, leveraging OCI’s data and analytics stack (Autonomous Data Warehouse, Data Flow, Data Integration).

Program-Level Initiatives

• Lead initiatives focused on the initial development of AI-powered products that utilize OCI-native AI and ML services for scalability and compliance.

Ethical AI/ML Practices

• Ensure AI models are transparent, relevant, and ethically used across all environments, maintaining consistency between OCI and multi-cloud systems.

Team Management

• Mentor and develop junior data scientists and engineers, fostering a culture of continuous learning and innovation in OCI and multi-cloud AI engineering.

Compliance

• Ensure adherence to HIPAA regulations and data privacy standards: HIPAA, SOC2, BAA enforcement, and PHI-safe model routing within OCI’s secure architecture.

Qualifications JOB REQUIREMENTS (Education, Experience, and Training):

• Must have 7+ years in Data Science, 3+ years in R&D, 2+ years mentoring/managing junior engineers. 
• Deep expertise in Kubernetes, CI/CD, LLMOps, and cloud-native architecture. Exposure to taking AI agents from concept to compliance-ready production is preferred.
• Strong ML Infra experience with hands-on Terraform/K8s/IaC.
• Deep experience with LLMOps, model versioning, and hybrid GPU deployment.
• Must have fluency in Python, Bash, and container-native toolchains.
• Familiarity with open-weight LLMs (Mistral, Grok, LLaVA, etc.)
• Passion fo
