• ** Very long term project; initial PO for 1 year but expect to go for 3-4 years ***Webcam Interview*** Remote***
Description:
• Development and testing on EP320 project (Conciliation Court Virtual Assistant), internal operational projects, Access and Service Delivery (ASD-3) initiatives—assignments to be determined.
• Develop and maintain ASP.NET applications integrated with Azure AI Services and Ollama for local or hybrid LLM deployments.
• Implement intelligent agent workflows using Semantic Kernel or AutoGen to orchestrate multi-agent conversations and reasoning.
• Design and deploy RAG pipelines using vector stores, semantic search, and enterprise data connectors.
• Integrate vector databases and semantic search for dynamic content retrieval and contextual AI responses.
• Work with MCP (Model Context Protocol) to enable interoperability between agents and services.
• Develop APIs and services that connect enterprise systems to AI models both on Azure and Ollama-hosted environments.
• Optimize model performance, latency, and cost efficiency across onpremises and cloud AI solutions.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams (AI engineers, data scientists, DevOps) to deliver production-ready AI features.
• Engage in regular communication, at least weekly, concerning work performance and provide documentation regarding the work performed. Successful performance will be determined by regular communication of work progress to technical lead and DSS Development Supervisor.
Responsibilities
• The vendor must initiate and provide a criminal background check for submitted contractors.
