Duration: 2-year contract

We're looking for an AI Developer to join our client's team for a 2-year contract . In this role, you'll be instrumental in designing and deploying cutting-edge agentic AI solutions to automate and enhance Quality Engineering (QE) processes.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and implement AI-driven agents that support the full quality engineering lifecycle.
• Fine-tune and deploy LLMs and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipelines for specific QE tasks.
• Utilize multi-modal and multi-agent systems for code, test, and defect generation.
• Work with QE teams to understand their needs and optimize agent performance.
