Full job description
Kayzen is seeking an LLM Platform Engineer/Lead to join the Engineering team remotely from EMEA or Bangalore. The role involves building internal AI frameworks, SDKs, and shared libraries to enable teams to integrate AI features quickly and safely. Responsibilities include designing reusable AI components, setting best practices for AI usage and cost control, evangelising AI internally, and owning AI tooling from experimentation to production. Candidates must have hands-on experience with LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic), RAG pipelines, embeddings, vector databases, prompt engineering, AI orchestration frameworks, and strong Python skills. Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure), Docker, and CI/CD is desirable. The role requires shipping LLM-powered features to production and iterating based on feedback. The position offers flexible remote work, direct reporting to the CTO, career growth, a multinational team, and budgets for home office setup and learning.
What you'll do
- Design and build internal AI frameworks, SDKs, and shared libraries
- Enable teams to integrate AI features with minimal friction
- Set up standardized patterns for using LLMs, embeddings, agents, and workflows
- Build reusable components for prompt management, evaluation, observability, and safety
- Define best practices for AI usage, cost control, and reliability
- Evangelise AI internally through documentation, examples, and hands-on guidance
- Rapidly prototype AI-powered features and turn them into reusable building blocks
- Own AI tooling from experimentation to production
Requirements
- Hands-on experience with LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.)
- Experience with RAG pipelines, embeddings, vector databases
- Familiarity with prompt engineering, prompt versioning, and evaluation
- Experience with AI orchestration frameworks
- Good understanding of AI observability, cost monitoring, and failure modes
- Shipped at least one LLM-powered feature to production and iterated based on telemetry or user feedback
- Comfortable with embeddings, fine-tuning, vector search, tokenisation, and evaluation methodologies
- Familiar with data lakes/warehouses, feature stores, and streaming/batch ETL; cloud (AWS/GCP/Azure)
- Excellent Python skills
- Experience building frameworks, platforms, or developer tooling
- Strong understanding of APIs, services, and system design
- Writes clean, maintainable, production-grade code
- Bias for shipping and iteration
- Can translate AI complexity into simple abstractions
- Comfortable with ambiguity and rapid change
- Thinks in terms of leverage and reuse, not one-off solutions
