Job Description
Key Responsibilities
- Implement Python microservices and APIs (FastAPI/Flask/Django) with clean contracts, versioning, pagination, and rate limiting.
- Build REST/GraphQL endpoints and internal SDKs to enable AI-enhanced features (prompt routing, retrieval, redaction) while maintaining strict separation from model ownership.
- Implement asynchronous and event-driven processing (e.g., Celery/Kafka/queues) for high-throughput pipelines and background jobs.
- Integrate services with enterprise AI platforms and LLM APIs (e.g., Azure OpenAI via enterprise gateway), handling prompt orchestration, tool invocation, moderation hooks, and response validation.
- Enforce runtime guardrails: input sanitization, PII redaction, toxicity/NSFW filters, output signing, and fallbacks.
- Implement semantic retrieval and vector search via approved platforms; do not train or host custom models.
Requirements
- Python Full Stack Developer with 1-2 years of experience.
- Proficiency in constructing AI pipelines using LangChain, LlamaIndex, and AutoRAG.
- Model optimization experience using Optuna and GridSearchCV.
- Hands-on experience with machine learning (ML) concepts.
- Experience building APIs with FastAPI and/or Flask.
- Familiarity with asynchronous/event-driven systems (Celery, Kafka, or similar queues).
- Knowledge of REST and GraphQL API design principles.
- Experience integrating with enterprise LLM APIs such as Azure OpenAI.
