About the Role Software development itself is being rebuilt around AI. You'll build the agents that do it - embedded inside a financial institution's own engineering organisation. As a forward-deployed AI Engineer, you sit with the client's tech team and build agents that their engineers use every day to run their software development lifecycle: requirement review, architecture, planning, coding, review, deployment, debugging. Your users are qualified engineers working on real systems, which sets a high bar - an agent that produces plausible-but-wrong output gets abandoned in a week. This demands strong software engineering fundamentals. You can't build an agent that reviews architecture or writes production code unless you deeply understand how architecture and production code actually work. Equally, you need a real point of view on where AI genuinely helps in the SDLC - and where it doesn't.
You'll report into Vecton's central engineering team, with dotted-line accountability to the client's technical leadership. What You'll Build Agents across the client's SDLC, for example: Requirement agents - review BRDs/PRDs for gaps, ambiguity, and completeness of the proposed solution Architecture agents - high-level solution architecture, security architecture, application-level LLD Planning agents - decompose a project into precise, executable development tasks Coding agents - pick up those tasks and write, test, and iterate on the code Review agents - code and PR review against the client's standards, patterns, and security expectations
` Deployment agents - pipeline execution, release checks,
environment handling Diagnosis agents - pull logs, traces, and metrics via the right tooling to isolate and debug failures
And the layer that makes them work: Context orchestration - designing how each agent gets the right context at the right time: codebase insight (repo indexing, observability/Grafana data), third-party integration docs, the client's internal standards, prior architectural decisions Harness decisions - evaluating build-your-own vs. established agent SDKs (Claude Code, Agent SDKs, and similar), and owning that call with clear reasoning Skills, tools, and references - building the tool definitions, skills, and reference material that move agent output from "plausible" to "actually correct" for this client's stack Evaluation - defining what "good output" means for each agent and measuring it
Beyond agentic SDLC You'll also build AI-centered applications for the client's business use cases - LLM-backed workflows, RAG systems, and multi-agent solutions running inside their infrastructure and compliance boundaries. What Being Forward-Deployed Actually Means Learn the client's stack, repos, CI/CD, ticketing, coding standards,
and release process well enough to encode them into agents Work directly with their engineers and tech leadership to find where agents will actually save time - and where they won't Build inside their constraints: on-prem or VPC-hosted models, data residency, code that can't leave their network, audit requirements Drive adoption - demo, onboard, gather feedback, iterate; usage is the success metric, not delivery Contribute to solution proposals, effort estimates, and PoC demos alongside Vecton's central team Feed patterns, components, and learnings back into Vecton's knowledge base
What We're Looking For 3–6 years of strong software development experience - you've designed, shipped, and maintained production systems, not just prototypes Solid fundamentals in system design, API design, testing, version control workflows, CI/CD, and debugging production issues
` Python proficiency for AI/ML workloads, plus working knowledge of at least one full stack (MERN/MEAN or Java/Spring Boot) Hands-on with LLMs, prompt engineering, RAG, and agentic frameworks (LangChain, LangGraph, CrewAI, AutoGen, or equivalent) Practical experience with vector databases and embedding-based retrieval (Pinecone, Weaviate, pgvector) A working thesis on how AI is changing software development - where it genuinely accelerates work, where it fails, and why Daily user of AI-assisted development tools (Claude Code, Cursor, or equivalent) - you should be able to describe what they do well and where they break down Ability to hold your own with senior client engineers and architects, and comfort with ambiguity - much of this doesn't have an established playbook yet
