We are looking for an accomplished Technical Lead proficient in implementing and operating the platforms and tools associated with Generative AI. In this role, you'll lead a team building bleeding-edge Generative AI applications using Large Language Models (LLMs) for structured and unstructured data for summarization, classification, and question-answering. You will work with our customers to understand their requirements and imagine, design, and develop applications on Google Cloud. In addition, you will collaborate with other technical leads to contribute towards the development of Generative AI capabilities within the company.

- Understanding of troubleshooting and reductionist techniques in software development.
