Role Overview:

We are looking for a mid/senior-level AI Testing & Engineering Specialist with strong Python expertise and solid experience in AI, Data Engineering, or Test Automation. The role is focused on building and evolving a next-generation testing framework for generative AI agents, including evaluation pipelines, synthetic data generation, observability layers, and quality metrics for LLM-based systems. You will work across AI engineering, data pipelines, and quality automation, contributing both to architecture design and hands-on implementation of scalable testing and evaluation systems. This role is suited for someone who can operate independently, contribute to technical decisions, and help shape standards for AI system validation in production environments.

Responsibilities:

• Design and develop Python-based frameworks for testing and evaluating AI agents and LLM-based systems
• Contribute to architecture design for evaluation pipelines, observability, and data-driven testing systems
• Build and maintain tools for test data generation (including synthetic and adversarial datasets)
• Define and implement evaluation strategies and quality KPIs for AI behavior (accuracy, robustness, bias, consistency, hallucination rate, etc.)
• Integrate LLM evaluation tools, CI/CD pipelines, and external AI platforms
• Support continuous testing, benchmarking, and production monitoring of AI systems
• Collaborate with AI engineers, data engineers, and QA teams to improve system reliability and scalability

About the candidate:

• 2-5+ years of experience in Software Engineering, Test Automation, AI Engineering, or Data Engineering
• Strong proficiency in Python and data/AI libraries (e.g., pandas, numpy, PyTorch or similar)
• Solid understanding of LLMs, NLP concepts, or generative AI systems
• Experience with test automation frameworks (e.g., PyTest, Playwright) and CI/CD pipelines
• Familiarity with data pipelines, dataset design, or feature engineering is a strong plus
• Experience with evaluation metrics for NLP/AI systems (BLEU, ROUGE, embedding-based metrics, or custom scoring approaches)
• Ability to design scalable systems and work autonomously on complex technical problems
• Strong analytical mindset and interest in AI system quality, reliability, and governance
