Job Description & Details
AI and machine‑learning platforms are reshaping every industry, and companies are racing to build scalable, enterprise‑grade solutions. As an AI/ML Architect you’ll be at the forefront of that transformation, designing systems that can handle massive data streams and serve cutting‑edge models. This role offers a high‑impact opportunity to blend deep technical expertise with strategic architecture leadership.
Job Summary
We are seeking an AI/ML Architect to design, develop, and scale enterprise‑level AI platforms. The role demands mastery of deep learning, NLP, computer vision, and large‑language‑model tooling, coupled with strong cloud (AWS/Azure/IBM) and big‑data infrastructure experience. You will own end‑to‑end system design, MLOps pipelines, and ensure the solution meets performance, reliability, and security standards.
Top 3 Critical Skills Table
| Skill | Why it's critical | Mastery Level |
|---|---|---|
| Deep Learning (DL, NLP, CV, Transformers) | Core for building high‑accuracy models that power business outcomes | Senior |
| Cloud Architecture (AWS/Azure/IBM) | Enables scalable, secure, and cost‑effective deployment of AI services | Senior |
| MLOps & Scalability (Kubernetes, Docker, Spark, Kafka) | Guarantees reliable model training, serving, and continuous delivery at enterprise scale | Senior |
Interview Preparation
- Explain how you would design a scalable LLM inference service on AWS.
What the interviewer is looking for: Understanding of EC2/ECS/EKS, autoscaling, latency optimization, and cost management. - Describe the end‑to‑end MLOps pipeline you have built using Kubernetes and Docker.
What the interviewer is looking for: Experience with CI/CD for models, versioning, monitoring, and rollback strategies. - How do you handle data drift and model degradation in a production environment?
What the interviewer is looking for: Knowledge of monitoring metrics, automated retraining triggers, and validation frameworks. - Walk through a project where you integrated Spark and Kafka for real‑time feature engineering.
What the interviewer is looking for: Ability to process high‑velocity data, schema management, and fault‑tolerant streaming. - What are the trade‑offs between using LangChain vs. LlamaIndex for building a Retrieval‑Augmented Generation system?
What the interviewer is looking for: Deep familiarity with GenAI tooling, modularity, and performance considerations.
