About the Role

We are growing our Generative AI consulting practice and looking for motivated recent graduates to join as GenAI Consultants. You'll work at the intersection of cutting-edge AI and real business problems — helping clients across industries design, build, and deploy LLM-powered solutions that create tangible value. This is a hands-on technical role where you'll contribute to the full lifecycle of GenAI projects: from architecture and prototyping through to production deployment, evaluation, and iteration.

Responsibilities

  • Design, build, train, fine-tune, and deploy sophisticated AI models leveraging LLMs (e.g., GPT-x, Claude, Gemini, Llama, Mistral) and other generative techniques.
  • Support the GenAI Solution Architect in designing robust, scalable, and secure applications.
  • Develop applications powered by GenAI models (both self-managed and API-accessible) that meet business needs and comply with applicable regulations (GDPR, EU AI Act, model licenses, etc.).
  • Design and optimize effective prompts (e.g., few-shot, Chain/Tree/Graph of Thought, ReAct, Self-reflection, guardrails), balancing simplicity and complexity to enhance analytical capabilities, refine outputs, improve user experience, and control interactions.
  • Design and implement Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) architectures to improve accuracy and relevance by retrieving information from pre-determined knowledge sources, providing traceability (source attribution).
  • Select and fine-tune appropriate models (including multimodal - VLM, SLM - Visual Language Models, Small Language Models) to create higher-quality content (text, image, audio, code, etc.) and maximize business value creation opportunities.
  • Implement MLOps best practices for the GenAI lifecycle, including automated pipelines (CI/CD), versioning, monitoring, and maintenance in production environments (Cloud platforms like AWS, Azure, GCP).
  • Ensure seamless integration into existing systems and with external tools/APIs, potentially utilizing standardized protocols (MCP).
  • Develop and execute rigorous evaluation frameworks to measure model performance, reliability, fairness, and safety.
  • Ensure adherence to Responsible AI principles and help teams and clients navigate end-to-end security and compliance processes.
  • Stay abreast of the latest advancements in GenAI techniques, technologies, and frameworks.
  • Experiment with new approaches and contribute to internal knowledge sharing.
  • Work effectively within cross-functional teams, communicating complex technical concepts clearly to diverse stakeholders (both technical and non-technical).
  • Document processes, methodologies, and best practices for knowledge sharing and future reference.
  • Distinguish between use cases suited for Generative AI versus traditional NLP applications (e.g., NER, sentiment analysis).

Requirements

  • Bachelors Degree Required
  • Recent graduate (within 2 years) in CS, Engineering, Data Science, or equivalent
  • Strong Python programming skills
  • Familiarity with at least one GenAI framework (LangChain, LlamaIndex, or similar)
  • Foundational knowledge of NLP concepts, vector embeddings, and semantic search
  • Exposure to cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP)
  • Ability to explain technical concepts clearly to diverse audiences
  • All candidates must hold — or demonstrate the clear ability to obtain within one week of hire — the Claude Certified Architect – Foundations (CCA-F) certification from Anthropic.
