Advocacy & Mentorship: Drive an innovation-first culture across the engineering lab staying ahead of emerging Generative AI/ML research and mentoring junior team members on production ML engineering best practices.

Cloud Infrastructure & AI FinOps: Architect resilient serverless and scalable AI microservices on Google Cloud Platform (GCP) while implementing granular tagging billing telemetry and cost-attribution frameworks for all AI workloads.

Cost Tracking & Optimization: Monitor analyze and optimize model inference costs (token-based API spend vector database queries GPU/TPU utilization) to maintain full visibility into product operational costs.

• Cloud Platform Mastery: Extensive expertise in Google Cloud Platform (GCP) including Vertex AI Cloud Run BigQuery Cloud Functions and GKE.

• Generative AI & LLM Frameworks: Strong proficiency in applying LLMs RAG architectures vector databases (e.g. Pinecone ChromaDB Vertex Vector Search) and frameworks like LangChain or LlamaIndex to build complex software automation tools.

• Programming & Software Engineering: Mastery of Python and solid proficiency in modern web/backend stacks (RESTful APIs gRPC microservice design patterns modern frontend frameworks).

• Code Parsing & AST Analysis: Familiarity with abstract syntax trees (ASTs) static code analysis compiler concepts or domain-specific language (DSL) translation techniques.

• MLOps & DevOps: Hands-on experience with MLOps workflows model tracking automated testing containerization (Docker Kubernetes) and CI/CD pipelines.

• AI Cost Monitoring & FinOps: Proven experience in token metering cost attribution model routing policies (balancing frontier models vs. smaller open-source models for cost efficiency) and monitoring tools (OpenTelemetry Cloud Monitoring).

• Strategic Product Mindset: Ability to translate complex client or internal business requirements into practical scalable AI features with measurable ROI.

• Articulate Communication: Exceptional verbal and written communication skills with a proven ability to explain complex AI/ML mechanics to non-technical business leaders and senior technical stakeholders alike.

• Innovative & Creative Problem-Solver: Thrives in an ambiguous lab-oriented environment where novel user experience and software engineering paradigms must be invented from scratch.

• High Empathy & User Advocacy: Deep passion for understanding engineering pain points and translating legacy technical debt into streamlined digital products.

• Prior experience building source-to-source compilers automated code conversion utilities or automated design document generators.

• Familiarity with software architecture patterns legacy enterprise frameworks and multi-language code conversion strategies.

• Knowledge of quantitative product analytics to track AI feature adoption model accuracy and user efficiency improvements.

• An active GitHub profile or portfolio demonstrating end-to-end AI applications open-source contributions or custom LLM tooling.

• Product Efficiency & Impact: Quantifiable reduction in manual technical debt and turnaround time for automated code and document generation tasks.

• System Scalability & Reliability: High uptime low inference latency and robust error handling across production AI pipelines on GCP.

• Innovation & Quality: Successful deployment of high-accuracy AI models that consistently outperform baseline metrics in complex domain-specific tasks.

• Collaboration & Delivery Efficiency: Timely feature releases clean API handoffs low rework rates and strong cross-functional alignment throughout the product lifecycle.
