About this role
This is us
At Avenga, we believe that human creativity empowers technology that matters. Operating globally, our 6000+ specialists provide a full spectrum of services, including business and tech advisory, enterprise solutions, CX, UX and Ul design, managed services, product development, and software development.
This is the job
The candidate will work on the core engine behind a production AI assistant: an agentic AI system focused on retrieval, LLM orchestration, and answer quality.
The product is designed to evolve AI-powered customer support from simply answering questions to executing customer requests. Rather than only providing information (e.g., explaining a bill), the assistant is built to safely perform actions such as placing orders or activating services while operating within the rules and constraints of a regulated telecom environment.
We care far more about how candidates think about retrieval quality than which specific libraries or frameworks they've used. The technology stack can be learned; strong engineering judgment and problem-solving are what we're looking for.

Experience vector database (e.g. Milvus, Pinecone, Weaviate, Qdrant, pgvector) and an understanding of embeddings and similarity search
A habit of evaluating and validating LLM output quality. (Azure OpenAI)
