POSTED ON 4/23/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 5/23/2026
Job Description:

We’re looking for a hands-on AI Engineer with strong experience in Azure OpenAI and Azure AI Foundry. This is not a research or data science role — we need someone who has actually built and deployed production-grade RAG / GenAI applications.

Strong skills in Python (FastAPI), API development, and Azure-based deployments (App Services, AKS, AI Search) are important. The ideal candidate understands end-to-end systems — from document ingestion and vector search to scalable deployment and monitoring.

Experience working in enterprise environments with security, PII handling, and reliability in mind is a big plus.


Key Responsibilities:

  • Build and deploy production-grade RAG / GenAI applications

  • Work with Azure OpenAI and Azure AI Foundry

  • Develop APIs using Python (FastAPI)

  • Handle document ingestion, embeddings, and vector search (Azure AI Search)

  • Deploy applications using Azure App Services and AKS

  • Ensure scalability, performance, and monitoring of AI systems

  • Work in enterprise environments with focus on security and PII handling

Required Skills:

  • Hands-on experience with Azure OpenAI and Azure AI Foundry

  • Strong experience with RAG / GenAI applications

  • Python with FastAPI

  • API development experience

  • Azure deployments (App Services, AKS, AI Search)

  • Understanding of end-to-end AI systems

Preferred:

  • Enterprise-level project experience

  • Strong understanding of security, PII, and reliability

  • Senior-level experience only
