LLM Integration & MCP Implementation 

• Integrate and orchestrate multiple LLMs (OpenAI, Claude, LLaMA, Mistral) through structured prompt pipelines and standard interfaces 

• Apply MCP to standardize how models consume prompts, context, metadata, and fallback instructions 

• Build intelligent context routers and session managers for dynamic model selection and enriched prompts 

• Partner with ML and platform teams to scale inference pipelines and maintain governance 

Cloud Infrastructure & DevOps 

• Deploy applications and LLM services across OCI, AWS, and Google Cloud Platform 

• Use Docker and Kubernetes to orchestrate containerized services and scale LLM workloads 

• Build CI/CD pipelines and automate multi-cloud infrastructure provisioning 

Monitoring, Messaging, and Observability 

• Implement monitoring and performance dashboards using Datadog, Splunk, Dynatrace, or Sumo Logic 

• Architect event-driven systems with Kafka, SNS, SQS, or Tibco for asynchronous messaging 

Testing and Quality 

• Write and maintain test suites using JUnit, Mockito, Rest Assured, and related frameworks 

• Conduct load testing and performance tuning for web services and LLM endpoints 

Qualifications

To join our band, you’ll bring experience in: 

• Strong back-end development with Node.js; front-end expertise in React 

• Familiarity with MCP or other structured model communication patterns 

• Working across cloud platforms: OCI, AWS, Azure, and/or GCP 

• Containerization and deployments with Docker/Kubernetes and microservices 

• Proficiency in both SQL (Oracle, MySQL, etc.) and NoSQL (MongoDB, Elasticsearch, DynamoDB) databases 

• Developing secure APIs and applying AI service governance 

Preferred skills:
