• You will build intelligent applications and agents capable of autonomous or interactive task execution using frameworks such as LangGraph, AutoGen, CrewAI, or similar, enabling advanced AI behaviors like reasoning, planning, and tool use.
• You will create modular, well-documented APIs and service components using FastAPI or Flask to seamlessly integrate models into broader applications and ensure clean, scalable consumption by other systems.
• You will develop and manage end-to-end data pipelines, overseeing data collection, transformation, and quality assurance to support robust model training and reliable AI performance.
• You will implement observability and evaluation mechanisms to monitor AI system behavior, tracking metrics such as accuracy, drift, reliability, and task-level reasoning to ensure ongoing effectiveness and trustworthiness.
• You will collaborate closely with software engineers, data scientists, and solution architects to ensure seamless design, development, and transition to production, bridging technical execution with strategic objectives.
• You will support both rapid experimentation and robust deployment pipelines, adapting your approach based on the maturity and requirements of each use case to balance innovation with reliability.
• You will stay current with the latest trends in generative AI, AI agents, orchestration protocols, and evaluation frameworks to continuously enhance Huron’s AI capabilities and maintain a competitive edge.
• You will assist in project management tasks, including planning, tracking deliverables, coordinating cross-functional teams, and ensuring alignment with client timelines and objectives, blending technical execution with organizational effectiveness.
• You will help prepare status reports, manage stakeholder communications, and identify risks or issues in project execution, contributing to transparent and successful project outcomes.
