Hands-on Prototyping: Rapidly build and validate PoCs using secure coding practices to demonstrate feasibility and business value directly to business and IT leadership before production rollout.
Engineering Leadership: Direct, mentor, and guide a team of AI/ML engineers on best practices, code quality, threat modeling, and secure CI/CD deployment pipelines.
Qualifications & Skills
Experience: 10+ years in Software Architecture / ML Engineering, including 2+ years in Management or Technology Consulting delivering enterprise digital and AI transformations within the Australian market.
Stakeholder Management: Proven track record of interacting with Business Process Owners and IT Leadership, articulating technical trade-offs, managing scope/expectations, and translating AI capabilities into operational improvements.
Hands-on Stack: Deep proficiency in Python and modern AI/ML frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, LangChain, LlamaIndex, AutoGen, CrewAI).
AI/LLM Architecture: Expertise in RAG patterns, vector databases (Pinecone, Qdrant, Milvus, pgvector), prompt engineering, fine-tuning, and LLM guardrail frameworks (e.g., NeMo Guardrails, Guardrails AI).
Engineering & MLOps: Hands-on experience with secure cloud platforms in Australian regions (AWS Bedrock/SageMaker, Azure OpenAI Service, GCP Vertex AI), enterprise IAM, containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), and audit-compliant CI/CD pipelines.
