Generative AI Engineer

Technology

Generative AI Engineers build and ship systems that produce images, text, audio, and video — integrating APIs like OpenAI's DALL-E 3, Stability AI's SDXL, and Anthropic's Claude into product features, running Stable Diffusion inference pipelines on AWS/GCP GPUs, fine-tuning ControlNet and LoRA adapters on proprietary datasets, and orchestrating multi-modal generation workflows with quality and safety guardrails. In India through 2026, the role is concentrated at image-tech companies (Glance, InMobi, Meesho's catalog team), conversational-AI startups (Yellow.ai, Haptik, Niki AI), design-automation tools (Adobe Firefly India team), and the GCCs of Microsoft, Adobe, and Nvidia — with a fast-growing fringe of Stable-Diffusion startups building for e-commerce product shots, ad-creative automation, and Indic-language content generation. The role sits between classical ML engineering and software engineering: you own the model pipelines and the API integrations that make generation reliable, fast, and cost-efficient at product scale — not the fundamental model research.
