Whether in the cloud or hybrid environments, AI Engineers develop and deploy cognitive services, machine learning, and knowledge mining solutions to help their organization stay ahead of the game.
Artificial intelligence (AI) engineers are responsible for developing, programming and training the complex networks of algorithms that make up AI so that they can function like a human brain. This role requires combined expertise in software development, programming, data science and data engineering. Though this career is related to data engineering, AI engineers are rarely required to write the code that develops scalable data sharing. Instead, artificial intelligence developers locate and pull data from a variety of sources, create, develop and test machine learning models and then utilize application program interface (API) calls or embedded code to build and implement AI applications.
I have a certificate Microsoft Certified: Azure AI Fundamentals, that confirm my knowledge of machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) concepts and related Microsoft Azure services (Azure, Bot Service, Cognitive Search, Cognitive Services, Computer Vision, Form Recognizer, Language Understanding, Machine Learning, QnA Maker, Speech to Text, Speech Translation, Text Analytics, Text to Speech, Translator Speech, Translator Text, AI Engineer, Developer, Data Scientist).
As a AI Engineer I can:
- designing, developing, and deploying Azure-based AI solutions, including machine learning models, cognitive services, and data analytics solutions,
- collaborating with cross-functional teams, such as data scientists, business analysts, and developers, to design and implement AI solutions that meet business requirements,
- building and training machine learning models using Azure Machine Learning, and tuning models for optimal performance,
- developing and deploying custom AI models using Azure Cognitive Services, such as speech recognition, language understanding, and computer vision,
- creating data pipelines to collect, process, and prepare data for analysis and modeling using Azure data services, such as Azure Data Factory and Azure Databricks,
- implementing data analytics solutions using Azure Synapse Analytics or other Azure data services,
- deploying and managing Azure services and resources using Azure DevOps or other deployment tools,
- monitoring and troubleshooting deployed solutions to ensure optimal performance and reliability,
- ensuring compliance with security and regulatory requirements related to AI solutions,
- staying up-to-date with the latest Azure AI technologies and industry developments, and sharing knowledge and best practices with the team.
