Job Description:
We are seeking a Senior Azure AI Document Intelligence Engineer responsible for designing, training, and optimizing AI-powered contract and invoice OCR solutions using Azure AI Document Intelligence, Azure Databricks, Azure Machine Learning, MLflow, Azure AI Search, OpenAI/GenAI, Python, and SQL, driving 98-99%+ extraction accuracy across complex supply-chain and procurement documents through advanced machine learning, document classification, validation frameworks, and intelligent automation.
Roles and Responsibilities:
- Analyse invoice and contract variations across suppliers, countries, languages, formats, and scan-quality levels. Define the document taxonomy and extraction schema for: Invoice headers Contract metadata Purchase-order references
- Supplier and customer information Dates, currencies, taxes, discounts, and totals Payment terms, renewal dates, obligations, and termination clauses Tables and invoice line items
- Evaluate Azure AI Document Intelligence prebuilt invoice, layout, custom neural, custom template, classification, and composed-model capabilities.
- Build and train custom document classifiers and extraction models. Prepare, label, clean, balance, and version training and evaluation datasets.
- Implement document preprocessing for rotation, skew, noise, resolution, page separation, and scan-quality issues.
- Develop confidence-scoring and validation strategies using field-level and OCR-level confidence signals. Implement deterministic validation rules, including Subtotal, tax, and total reconciliation Currency and date validation Purchase-order and supplier matching Duplicate-document detection
- Required-field and cross-field consistency checks Establish confidence thresholds and human-review rules for uncertain extractions. Perform error analysis by document type, supplier, field, language, and scan quality.
- Create automated evaluation pipelines reporting exact-match accuracy, precision, recall, F1 score, false-positive rates, and false-negative rates.
- Monitor model drift and retrain models when document formats or business requirements change. Document model versions, training data, experiments, limitations, and release decisions. Collaborate with supply-chain, procurement, accounts-payable, legal, and engineering teams.
