01Key Responsibilities
GenAI Architecture Solution Leadership
- Lead GenAI solution design: Architect enterprise LLM apps (RAG, agents, automation) from prototype to production.
- Fine-tune adapt models: Apply LoRA/QLoRA/PEFT (and alignment where applicable) for domain use cases.
- Agentic workflows: Design multi-step orchestration using frameworks such as LangGraph/AutoGen/CrewAI.
- Evaluation quality: Own LLM evaluation, hallucination mitigation, and responsible AI standards (e. g. , RAGAS/TruLens/DeepEval).
- Knowledge infrastructure: Govern vector DB/search patterns and knowledge integrations for scalable retrieval.
Advanced ML, Modeling Statistical Expertise
- Own the model lifecycle: Frame problems, define data strategy, build models, deploy, monitor, and iterate.
- Advanced modeling: Apply ML/NLP/time series/causal and related methods to ambiguous, highimpact problems.
- Governance: Lead documentation, validation, and risk controls aligned to responsible AI and regulated needs (e. g. , GxP).
- Experimentation: Design studies (A/B, quasi-experimental) to drive evidence-based decisions.
Data Strategy, Engineering Platform Collaboration
- Data strategy: Define acquisition, preprocessing, and enrichment for structured/unstructured enterprise data.
- EDA insights: Surface patterns and opportunities from multi-domain datasets.
- Pipelines: Co-design scalable data/ML pipelines with engineering/platform teams.
Technical Leadership Team Development
- Technical direction: Drive architecture, standards, and engineering best practices across the pod.
- Mentorship: Coach DS-1/DS-2 via reviews, pairing, and growth feedback.
- Reusable assets: Build/maintain shared frameworks, accelerators, and templates.
- Knowledge sharing: Lead workshops, documentation, and community-of-practice efforts.
Stakeholder Engagement Executive Communication
- Stakeholder partnership: Align senior leaders on priorities, value, and adoption
- Problem framing: Translate ambiguity into scoped workstreams with KPIs and milestones.
- Executive communication: Present architectures, results, and recommendations clearly.
- Delivery leadership: Manage priorities/risks across multiple initiatives in a matrixed environment.
