Role description
Weβre looking for an experienced AI/ML engineer to design, build, and operationalize Generative AI solutions that directly enhance network performance, diagnostics, and automation.
Minimum Qualifications
β’ Bachelorβs or Masterβs degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Data Science, or a similar technical discipline β or equivalent realβworld experience.
β’ 3β5 years of hands-on experience in AI/ML engineering, applied data science, or data engineering delivering production-ready systems.
β’ Strong proficiency in Python and SQL, with proven experience processing large-scale telemetry and timeβseries datasets and building maintainable, testable data pipelines.
β’ Practical experience using Azure services for data and AI workloads, including: Azure Machine Learning, AI Services / Azure OpenAI (LLMs, GenAI models), Databricks / Spark (Delta Lake, lakehouse patterns), Data Lake Storage or Blob Storage, Azure Functions, DevOps, Git, and automated testing frameworks
β’ Solid understanding of GenAI development best practices:
β’ RAG workflows
β’ Prompt engineering
β’ Evaluation principles: accuracy, grounding, safety, response quality, latency, and cost
β’ Strong production mindset: logging, monitoring/observability, troubleshooting, security basics (RBAC, managed identities, Key Vault, PII handling), and readiness for real-world performance scenarios (rate limits, timeouts, retries, caching).
Domain Qualifications β RAN & Mobility
β’ Solid knowledge of 4G/5G RAN fundamentals and mobility behaviors: handovers, call drops, throughput, congestion, interference, RSRP/RSRQ/SINR, PRB usage, and related KPIs.
β’ Ability to interpret complex network issues and turn them into measurable KPIs, diagnostic flows, and actionable engineering insights (e.g., RCA paths, remediation steps, validation plans).
Preferred Qualifications
β’ Experience developing internal copilots/assistants for network operations, triage, or RCA β ideally using alarms, KPIs, tickets, and documentation with traceable evidence and citations.
β’ Familiarity with agent-based orchestration (tool calling, multi-step workflows, retries, guardrails) for automated diagnostics or action planning.
β’ CI/CD for ML/LLM pipelines
β’ Drift monitoring and observability (OpenTelemetry)
β’ Token, cost, and performance governance
β’ Deep experience with Azure data and AI ecosystem components
