Staff GenAI Engineer - Remote AI Solutions

About the Role

We are seeking a Staff GenAI Engineer to join our remote team at Sia Partners. In this role, you will provide technical leadership in the design, development, and deployment of AI-driven platforms and products. As a Staff GenAI Engineer, you will combine hands-on engineering expertise with architectural ownership and client-facing consulting responsibilities.

What You'll Do

• Lead the architecture, design, and development of scalable backend systems integrating machine learning and Generative AI models into production-grade applications.
• Drive end-to-end delivery of GenAI solutions, including LLM-based systems, RAG architectures, and agentic workflows, from experimentation to production.
• Design and implement agentic AI systems enabling multi-step reasoning, tool calling, memory management, and orchestration.
• Apply a strong understanding of machine learning techniques (regression, classification, clustering, decision trees, neural networks, probabilistic models) to solution design and implementation.
• Collaborate closely with data scientists to train, fine-tune, evaluate, and deploy ML/AI models, ensuring reliability and performance at scale.
• Work with structured and unstructured data sources, designing efficient data pipelines and storage strategies.
• Lead development of backend microservices and APIs supporting AI-driven applications.
• Ensure production readiness of AI systems, including performance optimization, monitoring, cost control, and security.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s/master's degree in computer science, Software Engineering, or a related field.
• 8+ years of experience in software engineering, with strong backend expertise in Python and GenAI exposure.
• Proven experience delivering AI/ML or Generative AI systems in production environments.
• Familiarity with GenAI frameworks like Langchain, Google ADK, and other Agent development Kits.
• Strong knowledge of cloud-native architectures, microservices, and distributed systems.
• Hands-on expertise with Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD pipelines, and infrastructure-as-code (Terraform).
• Experience with PostgreSQL, MongoDB, or equivalent databases.
• Ability to operate in client-facing environments and communicate complex technical concepts clearly.

Nice to Have

• Experience mentoring or leading technical teams.
• Experience utilizing Cursor, GitHub Copilot, or Claude Code as a core part of daily workflow.

What We Offer

• Opportunity to lead cutting-edge AI projects in a global consulting environment.
• Leadership development programs and training sessions at our global centers.
• A dynamic and collaborative team environment with diverse projects.
• Remote work flexibility with a focus on results and innovation.
