Senior Technical Recruiter at Brooksource Data Scientist

Location:

Houston

Contract Type:

6-Month Ongoing Contract (potential to hire Fulltime)

Overview

Design & deliver GenAI solutions:

Architect and implement LLM/LVM applications (text and, where applicable, vision) including prompt strategies, guardrails, evaluation metrics, cost/latency optimization, and production rollout.

Build robust RAG systems:

Stand up end‑to‑end RAG pipelines (ingestion → chunking → embedding → retrieval → synthesis), with observability, feedback loops, and AB testing for groundedness and hallucination control.

Fine‑tune foundation models:

Select, adapt, and fine‑tune open and hosted models for domain‑specific tasks using efficient techniques (LoRA/QLoRA, PEFT, parameter‑efficient adapters), and manage evaluation datasets.

Develop agentic workflows:

Implement multi‑step, tool‑using agents for real‑time, context‑aware operations; orchestrate planning, memory, and tool calling with safe‑execution policies.

ML/LLM engineering:

Build high‑quality Python code, reusable libraries, and APIs; implement CI/CD, testing, experiment tracking, and model/version governance.

Data & platforms:

Partner with data engineering to operationalize pipelines on enterprise platforms (e.g., Databricks/Snowflake) and integrate with cloud AI/ML services.

Retrieval‑Augmented Generation (RAG):

Ability to design and implement robust RAG systems for

real‑time, context‑aware

applications.

Prompt engineering & agentic workflows:

Advanced prompt design (system/task/reflection patterns) and building

multi‑step AI agents .

Vector databases/search & embeddings:

Practical experience with vector indexing, similarity search, and embedding selection/management.

Software craftsmanship & platforms

Preferred qualifications

Vector stores/search:

FAISS, Milvus, Weaviate, Pinecone; hybrid (BM25 + vector) retrieval; reranking.

LLMOps/observability:

MLflow, LangSmith, OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, dashboards for cost/latency/quality; offline & online eval (e.g., RAGAS/DeepEval style).

Orchestration & data:

Airflow/Prefect; Kafka/Event Hubs; Delta/Parquet; Unity Catalog/governance.

MLOps patterns:

Canary/shadow deployments, feature flags, AB testing, blue‑green rollouts.

Domain experience:

Background in complex, datarich industries (e.g., energy, manufacturing, industrial IoT) is a plus.
