* Design and implement evaluation and measurement frameworks that quantify agent performance, detect hallucinations and drift, and provide the auditability compliance teams and regulators require

* Partner with Compliance, Legal, and Operations stakeholders to translate complex regulatory workflows into automatable technical specifications, identifying which processes are candidates for full automation vs. human-in-the-loop augmentation

* Mentor engineers on ML system design, LLM application patterns, and responsible AI practices, raising the team's technical bar for production AI systems

*Required Skills and Experience:*

* 8+ years in machine learning and software engineering, with demonstrated experience shipping LLM-based or Agentic AI applications to production

* Deep expertise in LLM application development, including prompt engineering, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), grounding techniques, hallucination reduction, and agent orchestration frameworks

* Proven track record building evaluation and measurement systems for ML models in production, including monitoring for drift, accuracy degradation, and output quality at scale

* Strong Python proficiency with hands-on experience in GenAI frameworks and ML infrastructure (e.g., LangChain, vector databases, Airflow, Spark, or equivalent orchestration and data processing tools)

* Experience in compliance, regulatory technology, financial crimes, or similarly regulated domains where auditability, explainability, and correctness of automated decisions are critical

* Utilizes generative AI responsibly, maintaining human oversight to deliver business-ready outputs and drive measurable improvements in workflow efficiency, cost, and quality
