Job Summary

Startup Inno is seeking a highly accomplished and visionary Staff AI Scientist – Agentic Frameworks & NLP to lead the design, development, and deployment of next-generation intelligent systems. This role is ideal for a senior AI professional who thrives at the intersection of research and production, with a strong passion for building autonomous, agentic AI systems that solve complex real-world problems.

As a Staff AI Scientist, you will act as a technical authority within the organization, driving AI strategy, mentoring teams, and shaping the companys long-term AI roadmap. You will work closely with product, engineering, and leadership teams to translate cutting-edge research in NLP, multi-agent systems, and large language models into scalable, business-ready solutions.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead the research and development of agentic AI systems, including multi-agent frameworks, autonomous workflows, and tool-using LLMs.

• Design and implement advanced NLP pipelines for tasks such as information extraction, reasoning, summarization, dialogue systems, and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG).

• Architect scalable AI solutions and ensure seamless integration with existing platforms and APIs.

• Drive experimentation with state-of-the-art models (LLMs, foundation models, transformers) and evaluate their performance in production environments.

• Define best practices for prompt engineering, fine-tuning, reinforcement learning from feedback, and AI evaluation.

• Collaborate with cross-functional stakeholders to align AI capabilities with business goals.

• Mentor and guide junior scientists and engineers, fostering a culture of innovation and technical excellence.

• Publish internal research findings, contribute to patents or whitepapers, and stay up to date with emerging trends in AI and ML.

Required Skills and Qualifications

• Strong expertise in Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Natural Language Processing.

• Deep understanding of LLMs, transformer architectures, and agent-based systems.

• Proficiency in programming languages such as Python, with experience in ML frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow, JAX).

• Hands-on experience with LLM orchestration frameworks (e.g., LangChain, LlamaIndex, AutoGen, CrewAI or similar).

• Solid background in data engineering, distributed systems, and cloud-based AI deployment.

• Strong problem-solving skills with the ability to translate research into practical solutions.

• Excellent communication skills and the ability to explain complex concepts to non-technical stakeholders.

Experience

• 7+ years of professional experience in AI/ML or Data Science roles, with at least 3 years in senior or lead positions.

• Proven track record of delivering AI solutions in production environments.

• Experience working on NLP-heavy systems, conversational AI, or autonomous agents is highly desirable.

• Background in research, innovation labs, or high-growth startups is a strong advantage.

Working Hours

• Full-time position.

• Flexible working hours with a focus on outcomes rather than strict schedules.

• Hybrid or remote options available depending on location and project needs.

Knowledge, Skills and Abilities

• In-depth knowledge of machine learning algorithms, deep learning, and AI system design.

• Strong analytical mindset with the ability to interpret complex datasets.

• Strategic thinking with a long-term vision for AI innovation.

• Ability to lead technical discussions and influence product direction.

• Adaptability to fast-paced environments and emerging technologies.

• High level of autonomy, ownership, and accountability.

Benefits

• Competitive salary and performance-based incentives.

• Stock options or equity participation in a fast-growing startup.

• Flexible work arrangements (remote/hybrid).

• Access to cutting-edge AI tools, infrastructure, and research resources.

• Professional development budget for conferences, courses, and certifications.

• Health insurance and wellness benefits.

• Collaborative, innovative, and inclusive work culture.
