Why Join Us?

• Build foundational AI infrastructure that powers next-gen enterprise systems.
• Work on cutting-edge agentic AI — not just chatbots, but autonomous systems that reason, plan, and act.
• Opportunity to influence AI strategy, deployment, and governance in a high-impact environment.

About the Role:

We are seeking a hands-on AI Engineer to design, deploy, and maintain on-prem AI infrastructure and build agentic AI systems that drive real-world automation. You’ll be responsible for setting up scalable AI environments, implementing RAG pipelines, fine-tuning embedded models, and architecting AI agents that operate autonomously in enterprise settings. This role sits at the intersection of AI systems engineering and applied ML — you’ll bridge infrastructure, model deployment, and agent logic.

Responsibilities:

• Design and deploy on-prem AI infrastructure — including GPU clusters, model serving (e.g., vLLM, TGI, Triton), vector DBs (e.g., Milvus, Qdrant, FAISS), and orchestration (Kubernetes, Helm, Docker).
• Build and optimize RAG pipelines — including document chunking, retrieval strategies (hybrid, re-ranking), and evaluation of retrieval accuracy and latency.
• Develop agentic AI systems — design stateful agents with memory, tool use, and planning capabilities (e.g., using LangGraph, AutoGen, or custom frameworks).
• Fine-tune and deploy embedded models — work with LoRA, QLoRA, or full fine-tuning for domain-specific tasks; optimize for edge/on-device inference.
• Implement Model Control Protocols (MCP) — ensure model governance, versioning, access control, and monitoring for production AI systems.
• Collaborate with product and engineering teams to integrate AI capabilities into enterprise workflows — especially in storage, QA, or systems engineering contexts.
• Automate and monitor AI pipelines — build CI/CD for model deployment, logging, and performance tracking.

Minimum Qualifications:

• 2+ years of experience in AI/ML engineering, with hands-on deployment of AI systems on-prem or private cloud.
• Proven experience building agentic AI systems — including state management, tool integration, and multi-step reasoning.
• Strong working knowledge of RAG architectures — chunking, retrieval, re-ranking, evaluation metrics.
• Experience with model fine-tuning (LoRA, QLoRA, full fine-tuning) and embedding models for retrieval.
• Familiarity with Model Control Protocols (MCP) or similar governance frameworks (model versioning, access control, audit trails).
• Proficiency in Python, Linux, Docker/Kubernetes, and vector databases (e.g., Milvus, Qdrant, Pinecone).
• Experience with AI serving frameworks (vLLM, TGI, Triton, Ollama, etc.).

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience deploying AI in enterprise storage or hardware-adjacent environments.
• Background in systems engineering or QA automation — bonus if you’ve used AI to automate testing or validation.
• Familiarity with embedded AI or edge inference (ONNX, TensorRT, GGUF, etc.).
• Experience with AI agent frameworks (LangGraph, AutoGen, BabyAGI, etc.).
• Knowledge of AI observability tools (LangSmith, Weights & Biases, Prometheus/Grafana for AI).
• As a Storage company, knowledge of storage area/NVMe is a PLUS.

Education Requirement:

• Bachelor of Science in CS, EE, ME, or other applicable Engineering field.
