We are seeking a Mid-Level Data Scientist with a strong interest in AI agent systems to join our growing development team and help us enhance product reliability and performance. One of our team's core missions is to create innovative, scalable, and impactful AI solutions that extend the Kyriba Platform's functionality and fulfill growing customer needs and expectations.
As a Mid-Level Data Scientist, you’ll play a key role in designing, developing, and deploying agentic AI solutions that understand financial domain complexities and deliver trustworthy, explainable results. You’ll be involved in single and multi-agent design, prompt engineering, context engineering, advanced evaluation of agentic workflows, RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) systems, and other agent-related topics. You'll collaborate with cross-functional teams, including software engineers, product managers, and other data scientists, to deploy and iterate on scalable AI solutions.
The perfect candidate doesn't need to fulfill all the requirements listed below—we are looking for talented colleagues who are willing to learn, motivated, and brave enough to tackle complex problem-solving challenges.
Keywords: AI, GenAI, AI Agents, LLM, LangGraph, LangChain, RAG, Python, Databricks, Mosaic AI, Vector Databases, Prompt Engineering
Essential duties and responsibilities:
Proactively assist in the design, development, and testing of production-ready AI agent systems for financial applications
Work closely with senior team members to implement, evaluate, and optimize AI agents using techniques such as prompt+context engineering, few-shot learning, and chain-of-thought reasoning
Support data extraction, preparation, and feature engineering, including maintaining vector stores and embedding pipelines for RAG systems
Contribute to the development of evaluation frameworks to assess agent performance, accuracy, hallucination detection, and response quality
Collaborate with cross-functional teams to define agent requirements, performance metrics, success criteria, and deliverables
Participate in code reviews, unit testing, integration testing, and documentation to ensure code quality, reproducibility, and maintainability
Stay updated on the latest research and developments in LLMs, agentic frameworks, and foundation models.
Research and experiment with emerging approaches to advance agent systems in terms of efficiency, accuracy, reasoning capabilities, and reliability
