Description
Our client is looking for Agentic AI Engineer to build and deploy AI agents that automate real business workflows — reducing operational cost, headcount dependency, and turnaround time. This is a hands-on implementation role, not R&D.; If your experience lives in notebooks, courses, and demos, this role is not for you.

What You'll Own
- Design and build multi-agent systems that replace or augment manual business processes
- Integrate agents with internal tools (CRM, ERP, databases, APIs, communication platforms)
- Optimize agent performance for cost per task — token efficiency, latency, and accuracy
- Set up observability and monitoring so agents don't fail silently in production
- Work directly with business stakeholders to translate process pain points into agent workflows
- Maintain and iterate on deployed agents — not a build-and-forget role

Requirements
- Minimum 2 production-deployed agentic systems — not POCs, not demos, not coursework. Real systems, real users, real business impact. You must be able to speak to what broke, how you fixed it, and what it saved




- Proficiency in Python, LangChain/LangGraph or equivalent orchestration frameworks
- Experience with tool-calling, RAG pipelines, memory management, and multi-agent coordination
- Familiarity with MCP servers and API integrations
- Cost-aware engineering mindset — can justify model choice (when to use GPT-4o vs Haiku vs Sonnet) based on task requirements, not preference
- Understanding of guardrails, human-in-the-loop design, and failure handling

How We Evaluate You — Interview Process
Theory will not get you through. Expect:
- Production walkthrough — show us a live or previously deployed agent. Walk us through the architecture, what failed, and how you resolved it
- Cost breakdown — explain the token/compute cost of a system you built and how you optimized it
- Live build task — given a business process, design an agent workflow on the spot

What Positive Looks Like
- Agents running in produ
