- Build and iterate on prompts, AI agents, and copilots using tools like Claude, GPT, LangChain, or the Claude Agent SDK.
- Support data collection, cleaning, labelling, and analysis to feed AI models and evaluations.
- Prototype RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) pipelines using embeddings and vector databases.
- Contribute to workflow automation by integrating AI with existing enterprise systems (APIs, databases, document repositories).
- Document experiments, benchmarks, and learnings; share knowledge with the team.
- Stay current with the fast-evolving AI landscape and propose relevant new ideas.
- Awareness of ISO 14001 and 45001 standards.
Qualifications
- Bachelor's or Master's degree (or final-year student) in Computer Science, Data Science, AI, Software Engineering, or a related field.
- Solid programming skills in Python (mandatory).
- Working understanding of AI/ML fundamentals: LLMs, prompt engineering, embeddings, fine-tuning basics, evaluation methods.
- Experience calling LLM APIs (Claude, OpenAI, or similar) in personal projects or coursework.
- Familiarity with Git, VS Code, REST APIs, JSON, and modern developer workflows.
- Strong analytical thinking, curiosity, and eagerness to learn.

- Growth mindset and comfort with rapid iteration.
What You Will Learn
- Practical, production-grade application of Generative AI in an enterprise setting.
- End-to-end AI project lifecycle - from idea to prototype to deployment.
- Working with cross-functional teams (engineering, business, domain experts).
- Enterprise-grade software practices: version control, code review, secure coding, DevOps.
- Responsible AI: safety, evaluations, and human-in-the-loop design.
