As a leading financial services and healthcare technology company based on revenue, SS&C is headquartered in Windsor, Connecticut, and has 27,000+ employees in 35 countries. Some 20,000 financial services and healthcare organizations, from the world's largest companies to small and mid-market firms, rely on SS&C for expertise, scale, and technology. Job Description Key Responsibilities: Lead the development of robust, high-performance web and generative AI applications. Build and deploy GenAI solutions leveraging Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines for intelligent document querying, summarization, and semantic search. Extract, structure, and process data from complex documents (PDFs, images, scanned forms) using integrated OCR engines (e.g., Tesseract, PaddleOCR) and vision-language models. Develop RAG-based GenAI applications using tools like LangChain and LlamaIndex, and work with vector databases (e.g., FAISS, Weaviate) for efficient embedding-based retrieval. Integrate OCR, LLMs, and vector search into business applications to automate the extraction, understanding, and processing of unstructured content. Design, train, and optimize both Small Language Models (SLMs) and Large Language Models (LLMs) for domain-specific applications, ensuring efficiency and high performance. Develop scalable training pipelines leveraging methods such as supervised fine-tuning, reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF), prompt tuning, parameter-efficient fine-tuning (e.g., LoRA, adapters), and knowledge distillation. Fine-tune, evaluate, and deploy language models using advanced techniques like quantization, continual learning, and model distillation to meet evolving business requirements. Analyze and monitor model outputs for quality, bias, and safety, iterating to improve accuracy and model alignment with user and business needs.
