[Hiring] Principal Consultant, GenAI @Lovelytics

Role Description

Lovelytics is seeking a Principal Gen AI Consultant with hands-on experience delivering client-facing projects in the Generative AI domain, particularly on the Databricks platform. As part of our growing AI & GenAI practice, this role offers an exciting opportunity to design and deploy state-of-the-art solutions that combine language models, vector databases, and cutting-edge orchestration frameworks.

We’re looking for a GenAI Engineer who's already taken GenAI from concept to production on Databricks. Joining our GenAI practice means you’ll design and deploy solutions that work in the real world:

• RAG pipelines
• LLM orchestration
• Vector search
• AI agents
• Architecture decisions that make all of it scale

This isn't a research role; it's for practitioners who've worked with clients, understood their problems, and built solutions to solve them. If you're energized by the pace of this space and want to work alongside people who take data and AI seriously, we'd love to talk.

Note: This position is not eligible for work sponsorship at this time.

Qualifications

• B.S. in Computer Science or equivalent technical field.
• 5+ years in Data Analytics with significant experience in data, ML, AI, cloud, or software engineering.
• Demonstrated ~2 years of hands-on GenAI/LLM experience, preferably including multiple production implementations.
• Proven experience leading technical workstreams or end-to-end solution delivery.
• Prior consulting or professional services experience strongly preferred.
• Formal people-management experience is not required, but technical leadership and mentoring experience is expected.

Requirements

• Strong hands-on experience building and deploying production GenAI solutions, including LLM applications, AI agents, tool calling, orchestration, and Compound AI systems.
• Strong Databricks experience across relevant capabilities such as Mosaic AI, Model Serving, MLflow, Unity Catalog, Vector Search, Databricks Apps, and Lakehouse architecture.
• Strong Python and software engineering skills, including APIs, testing, CI/CD, deployment, and integration patterns.
• Experience with GenAI evaluation, prompt engineering/optimization, guardrails, monitoring, observability, and LLMOps.
• Working knowledge of classical ML, data engineering, and analytics and how they integrate with GenAI solutions.
• Strong client-facing consulting, communication, and presentation skills.
• Strong problem-solving skills and ability to operate effectively when requirements are ambiguous or evolving.
• Demonstrated technical leadership and ability to mentor and guide Senior/Lead resources.
• Ability to explain complex technical concepts clearly to both technical and business stakeholders.

Benefits

• Meaningful, cutting-edge projects in Generative AI with clients across industries—from Fortune 100 firms to disruptive startups.
• Rapid learning and mentorship opportunities with AI/GenAI thought leaders and practitioners.
• A culture of experimentation, innovation, and continuous improvement.
• Opportunity to be a conference speaker, blogger, writer.
• A diverse, inclusive team and one of the best GenAI teams, where your voice, ideas, and contributions are highly valued.
