Nelnet is looking to drive the adoption of Agentic AI across the company, creating opportunities for people where they live, learn, and work.
Requirements
- 1+ years experience creating end-to-end agentic workflows.
- Ability to work with advanced AI methods (e.g., Naïve Bayes, Random Forests).
- Experience with cloud-native resources (e.g., AWS Bedrock, GCP Vertex AI, Docker, Kubernetes, MongoDB, BigQuery).
- Knowledge of AI technologies and techniques (e.g., GPT-4.0, Anthropic Claude, RAG, Neo4j, GraphRAG, multimodal AI, IBM Bee-Hive).
- Experience with full stack development tools (e.g., VS Code, Python, JavaScript, React.js, Node.js, pyspark, scikit-learn, Jupyter, SQL).
- Experience with machine learning models and large language models (LLMs).
- Familiarity with AI governance, security, and compliance frameworks (e.g., NIST, OWASP, ATLAS-MITRE, GDPR).
Responsibilities
- Agentic AI Expertise: Design, build, and optimize AI Agents using advanced methods (e.g., Naïve Bayes, Random Forests) and understand their impact on agent performance.
- AI Communication: Explain AI concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences; facilitate training and pilot projects.
- IT Infrastructure: Work across multi-cloud and on-premises environments, selecting appropriate cloud-native resources (e.g., AWS Bedrock, GCP Vertex AI, Docker, Kubernetes, MongoDB, BigQuery) to support AI initiatives.
- Use Case Evaluation: Assess and recommend AI technologies and techniques (e.g., GPT-4.0, Anthropic Claude, RAG, Neo4j, GraphRAG, multimodal AI, IBM Bee-Hive) for various business needs.
- Education & Advocacy: Serve as an AI advocate, coaching and empowering teams to develop and deploy AI Agents.
- Responsible AI: Apply best practices in AI governance, security, and compliance (e.g., NIST, OWASP, ATLAS-MITRE, GDPR).
- Full Stack Development: Build AI Agents end-to-end using tools such as VS Code, Python, JavaScript, React.js, Node.js, pyspark, scikit-learn, Jupyter, SQL.
