Job Description
AI Solution Design & Architecture
- Design and implement AI solutions leveraging:
o Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)
o Agentic workflows (tool use, orchestration, planning)
o Structured outputs (schemas, JSON, function calling)
- Define reusable architecture patterns tailored to engineering use cases (e.g., PEP, MDR, technical documentation)
- Recommend model strategies aligned to cost, performance, and security constraints
- Ensure solutions remain model-agnostic and adaptable to evolving enterprise platforms
- Partner with Enterprise Architecture to align with standards, integration patterns, and security requirements
2) Rapid MVP Development → Scaling → Delivery
- Lead a rapid MVP-based delivery approach:
o Develop solutions in short cycles (weeks, not months)
o Validate with users using measurable success criteria
o Iterate based on feedback
- Transition validated solutions from Incubator environments to scalable enterprise architectures
- Optimize solutions across performance, latency, cost, and reliability
- Support structured handoff to production teams with clear architecture documentation and scaling guidance
3) Engineering Workflow Transformation
- Apply AI to complex engineering datasets (e.g., equipment lifecycle data, technical documentation, simulation-informed datasets) to improve decision-making and automation
- Develop AI-powered solutions that improve engineering workflows using Worley data, including:
o Standards, specifications, and knowledge bases
o Project documentation (e.g., PEPs, MDRs)
- Build and deploy RAG-based applications to generate, validate, and augment engineering outputs
- Design structured outputs and human-in-the-loop workflows for high-confidence engineering use cases
- Contribute to reusable datasets and knowledge systems that support scalable AI adoption
- Translate engineering lifecycle challenges into practical, deployable AI-enabled solutions
4) Product, Value, and Business Enablement
- Partner with engineering and business teams to identify and prioritize high-value AI opportunities
- Translate business problems into AI system designs, including:
o User interaction patterns
o Workflow integration approaches
o Measurable value frameworks (time savings, quality improvements, productivity gains)
- Support adoption of AI solutions by embedding them into engineering workflows
- Contribute to broader digital transformation initiatives
5) MLOps, Evaluation, and Responsible AI
- Apply MLOps / LLMOps practices, including:
o CI/CD pipelines, containerization, and deployment patterns
o Monitoring, observability, and performance tracking
- Define and apply evaluation frameworks:
o Grounding and hallucination risk
o Accuracy, usability, and per
