Data Analytics (NCS/Job/ 3789)

Role Overview
We are seeking highly skilled Data Science & GenAI Developers to join our team as vendor partners. In this role, you will be instrumental in designing, building, and deploying advanced Generative AI solutions and machine learning models leveraging the Google Cloud Platform (GCP) ecosystem. The ideal candidates will have deep hands-on experience with Google's Gemini models, Vertex AI, and end-to-end data science workflows. You will collaborate closely with our internal engineering and product teams to translate complex business problems into scalable AI-driven applications.
 

Key Responsibilities
1. GenAI Application Development: Design, build, and deploy Generative AI applications using Google’s latest Gemini models via Vertex AI.
2. RAG Architecture Implementation: Develop robust Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines, integrating proprietary enterprise data with Gemini to ground model responses and reduce hallucinations.
3. Data Science & Machine Learning: Perform exploratory data analysis (EDA), feature engineering, and traditional machine learning model development to support and complement GenAI initiatives.
4. GCP Ecosystem Integration: Utilize GCP services effectively, including Vertex AI, BigQuery, Cloud Storage, Cloud Functions, and Cloud Run, to build secure and scalable AI pipelines.
Prompt Engineering & Optimization: Iteratively design, test, and refine prompts to optimize the performance, accuracy, and safety of Gemini model outputs.
5. Model Deployment & MLOps: Containerize applications and deploy models into production environments, ensuring proper monitoring, logging, and performance tracking.
6. Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work alongside data engineers, software developers, and business stakeholders to define requirements and deliver impactful AI solutions.
