Design scalable, secure backend systems using Java (Spring Boot) and Python (FastAPI/Flask). Develop RESTful and gRPC APIs that connect backend services, AI agents, and React front-end applications.
AI & GenAI Integration
Integrate Large Language Models (LLMs) such as GPT, Claude, Mistral, and Gemini into backend systems. Build and optimize RAG pipelines using vector databases (Pinecone, Weaviate, FAISS). Develop orchestration and agentic workflows using LangChain, LangGraph, or Autogen.
Scalability & Reliability
Lead the design and implementation of distributed, fault-tolerant systems that scale horizontally. Implement auto-scaling, monitoring, and observability using Kubernetes, Docker, and Prometheus/Grafana. Drive best practices for latency reduction, cost optimization, and service reliability.
Leadership & Execution
Partner with other senior engineers, ML engineers, and product leads to define and deliver the platform roadmap. Mentor developers, set coding standards, and lead design reviews. Deliver results with urgency - balancing innovation with enterprise rigor.
Innovation & Strategy
Explore new frameworks, architectures, and deployment models to push the boundaries of Agentic AI in production. Drive continuous improvement, automation, and open-source adoption across the engineering organization.
