Key Responsibilities

  • Architect and execute large-scale custom model training and fine-tuning jobs (SFT, RLHF) on multi-node, multi-GPU clusters.
  • Optimize training throughput and memory efficiency using distributed training strategies (FSDP, DeepSpeed, Megatron-LM) and mixed-precision techniques (FP16/BF16).
  • Design and develop autonomous AI Agents capable of multi-step reasoning, planning, and tool execution to automate complex manufacturing workflows.
  • Implement Agentic frameworks (e.g., LangChain, LangGraph, CrewAI) to orchestrate LLM interactions with internal APIs, databases, and software tools.
  • Profile and debug GPU performance bottlenecks using tools like Nsight Systems or PyTorch Profiler to maximize hardware utilization.
  • Build and maintain data/solution pipelines that feed machine learning models and GenAI applications.
  • Design and optimize data structures in data management systems (Snowflake, and Google Cloud platforms) to enable AI/ML and Agentic solutions.
  • Create/Maintain CI/CD pipelines of machine learning and AI Agent solutions in the cloud.

Requirements

  • 9+ years building scalable ETL pipelines.
  • 9+ years of experience with big data processing and/or developing applications and data sources.
  • Deep understanding of GPU architecture (memory hierarchy, tensor cores, interconnects like NVLink) and experience managing GPU resources in cloud/on-prem environments.
  • Hands-on experience with Distributed Data Parallel (DDP), Fully Sharded Data Parallel (FSDP), and model parallelism techniques.
  • Proficiency in fine-tuning Large Language Models using PEFT techniques (LoRA, QLoRA) and optimizing inference engines (vLLM, TensorRT-LLM).
  • Experience developing GenAI applications and AI Agents using frameworks like LangChain, LangGraph, LlamaIndex, or AutoGen.
  • Proficiency with Large Language Models (LLMs), including prompt engineering, function calling/tool use, and Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning.
  • Experience in building and executing end-to-end ML systems automating training, testing and deploying Machine Learning models.
  • Familiarity with machine learning frameworks (PyTorch is required).
  • Strong scripting and programming skills in Python or Java (Python preferred).
  • Experience with continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD) tools (Jenkins, Git, Docker, Kubernetes).
  • Technical Degree required; Computer Science or Statistics background highly desired.
