Staff Agentic AI Engineer
- Hyderabad, Telangana
- Permanent
- Full-time
- Design and implement autonomous AI agents for semantic search, text-to-SQL translation, and analytical task execution.
- Develop modular prompts, reasoning chains, and decision graphs tailored to complex enterprise use cases.
- Enhance agent performance through experimentation with LLMs, prompt tuning, and advanced reasoning workflows.
- Integrate agents with Teradata's Model Context Protocol (MCP) to enable seamless interaction with model development pipelines.
- Build tools that allow agents to monitor training jobs, evaluate models, and interact with unstructured and structured data sources.
- Work on retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipelines and extend agents to downstream ML systems.
- Product managers and UX designers need to craft agentic workflows that are intuitive and impactful.
- Domain specialists to ensure solutions align with real-world business problems in regulated industries.
- Infrastructure and platform teams responsible for training, evaluation, and scaling AI workloads.
