Hands-On AI Technical Lead (GenAI & RAG) - J12791

About the Client: We are working with a highly reputable, global financial services firm based in Hong Kong. Rather than treating AI as an experimental side-project, they are heavily investing in a centralized AI Platform team to build out scalable tools for their global user base. The engineering culture here is practical, delivery-focused, and heavily reliant on modern AWS cloud infrastructure. The Role & Landscape: This is a senior, "player-coach" position reporting directly to the Platform Director. You will act as the hands-on captain for a small team of engineers. This isn't a pure management role where you just shuffle Jira tickets; you will be deep in the codebase, driving the technical direction for specific domains like RAG and Agent Frameworks. Build the Foundation: Design and implement agentic workflows and multi-agent orchestration using LangChain and LangGraph. Code & Review: Spend a significant portion of your time doing actual engineering work in Python and Java, building REST APIs (FastAPI/Flask), and reviewing your team's code. Architecture to Execution: Take high-level architectural blueprints and break them down into executable, technical tasks for your engineers. Productionize Models: Work heavily with AWS (Bedrock, SageMaker), PostgreSQL, and Cosmos DB, ensuring solutions are containerized (Docker/Kubernetes) and meet enterprise security standards. What We Are Looking For Experience: 8+ years of total software engineering experience, with at least 2 years directly involved in AI/ML engineering or MLOps in an enterprise environment. Core Languages: Strong, hands-on programming skills in Python and Java. AI/LLM Stack: Deep, practical experience with Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and frameworks like LangChain, LangGraph, or n8n. Cloud & Infra: Solid understanding of AWS (specifically GenAI services), containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), and database management. Leadership: A Solutions Architect mindset combined with the willingness to write code. You know how to estimate complexity, run technical grooming sessions, and mentor engineers. Language: Proficiency in spoken and written English and Chinese. Why Apply To This Role: If you are frustrated by AI roles that are all theory and no production, this is the antidote. You will have the budget, the mandate, and the AWS tooling to actually ship GenAI platforms that impact a massive, global user base. The compensation is highly competitive for the Hong Kong market, and the technical problems you will solve—specifically around agent-to-agent communication—are exactly where the industry is heading.
