Key Responsibilities

1. Design, develop and maintain AI Agent applications powered by Large Language Models (LLMs), including intelligent Q&A, task planning, tool calling, workflow orchestration, multi-agent collaboration and long-term memory.

2. Design technical solutions and build production-ready AI applications using leading LLMs and Agent frameworks, covering solution architecture, prototyping, implementation, testing, deployment and continuous optimisation.

3. Develop and optimise key AI capabilities including:

· Prompt Engineering

· Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)

· Enterprise Knowledge Base

· Function Calling

· Model Context Protocol (MCP) integrations

4. Integrate LLM capabilities with existing enterprise applications, business systems, databases and third-party APIs to automate and enhance business workflows.

5. Establish evaluation and monitoring mechanisms for AI applications, continuously improving:

· task completion rate

· response accuracy

· system reliability

· latency

· model inference cost

6. Participate in AI product planning, system architecture design, API design, technical reviews and end-to-end project delivery.

7. Keep up to date with the latest developments in LLMs, AI Agents and related technologies, conducting technical research, proof-of-concepts and production implementation.

8. Collaborate closely with Product Managers, AI Scientists, Backend Engineers and business stakeholders to independently deliver core product features.
