Role Summary

As the Lead AI Engineer (Agentic Systems), you willhelparchitect and build the organizations next generation of autonomous AI workflows. This is a multidisciplinary technical roleoperatingat the intersection of Software Engineering, Data Engineering, and Machine LearningEngineering. You will move beyond simple "chatbots" to design production-grade Agentic Systems: intelligent applications capable of reasoning, planning, and executing complex tasks autonomously.

Responsibilities

Agentic Systems Architecture Core Engineering

- Architect Build Multi-Agent Workflows: Lead the hands-on design and coding of stateful, production-grade agentic systems using Python and orchestration frameworks likeLangGraph,CrewAI, orAutoGen.
- Agent-to-Agent (A2A) Communication: Design and implement robust A2A protocols enabling autonomous agents to collaborate, hand off sub-tasks, and negotiate execution paths dynamically within multi-agent environments.
- State Management Orchestration: Engineer robust control flows for non-deterministic agents; implement complex message passing, memory persistence, and interruptible state handling to support long-running autonomous tasks.
- Tool Interface Design (MCP): Implement and standardize the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to create universal interfaces between agents, data sources, and operational tools, ensuring modularity and scalability.
- Model Integration Optimization:Utilizeproxy services (i.e.LiteLLM)to manage model routing and fallback strategies;optimizecontext windows and inference costs across proprietary and open-source models.
- Production Deployment: Containerize agentic workloads using Docker and orchestrate deployments on Kubernetes; leverage AWSAgentCoreor similar cloud-native services for scalable infrastructure.

Data Engineering Operational Real-Time Integration

- Build Agent Data Pipelines: Write andmaintainhigh-throughput ingestion pipelines (using Databricks or Python-based ETL) that transform raw operational signals into structured context for agents.
- Real-Time Context Injection: Ensure agents have access to "operational real-time" data (seconds/minutes latency) byoptimizingretrieval architectures and vector store performance.
- Cross-Functional Engineering: Act as the technical bridge between Data Engineering and AI teams; translate complex agent requirements into concrete data schemas and pipeline specifications,



while stepping in to resolve hands-on bottlenecks in data availability.

Observability, Governance Human-in-the-Loop

- LLMOpsTracing: Implement comprehensive observability using tools likeLangfuseto trace agent reasoning steps,monitortoken usage, and debug latency issues in production.
- Safety Control Frameworks: Design hybrid execution modes ranging from Human-in-the-Loop (HITL) for sensitive operations to fully autonomous execution; build "break-glass" mechanisms and guardrails for automated decision-making.
- Evaluation Reliability:Establishtechnical standards for testing non-deterministic outputs; automate evaluation pipelines to measure agent accuracy, hallucination rates, and drift before deployment.

Technical Leadership Strategy

- Technical Roadmap Definition: Partner with Product and Engineering leadership to scope feasibility for autonomous projects; define the "Agentic Architecture" roadmap.
- Mentorship Standards: Define code quality standards, architectural patterns, and PR review processes for the AI engineering team; upskill team members on the latest agentic frameworks and methodologies.
- Innovation: Proactively prototype with emerging tools (e.g., new reasoning models, graph-based RAG) to solve high-value business problems, moving successful experiments into the production roadmap.

Qualifications

Required

- Experience: 7+ years of total technical experience in Software Engineering, Data Engineering, or Machine Learning.
- GenAI Specialization: 2+ years of specific experience building and deploying LLM-based applications or Agentic Systems in production.
- Database Lakehouse Mastery:Experience architecting storage layers for AI, including Vector Databases (e.g., Pinecone,Weaviate,Qdrant), NoSQL/Relational Databases (PostgreSQL, DynamoDB), and modern DataLakehouses(specifically Databricks or Snowflake).

- Language Proficiency: Advancedproficiencyin Python for systems engineering, capable of writing modular, testable, and maintainable production code.
- Education:Bachelors degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, ora relatedtechnical field.

Preferred

- Advanced Education: Masters degree or PhD in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, or a related quantitative field.
- NLP Expertise: 5+ years of hands-on experience in Natural Language Processing (NLP), ranging from foundational techniques (e.g., text processing, embeddings, classification) to modern architectures.
- Graph Technologies: Experience with Knowledge Graphs (e.g., Neo4j, AWS Neptune), Graph Databases, andGraphML(Graph Machine Learning) to support complex reasoning and relationship modeling.
- Agentic Tooling: Specific experience withLangGraph,LiteLLM,Langfuse, AWSAgentCore, or implementing the Model Context Protocol (MCP).
- Advanced Architectures: Proventrack recordof implementing Agent-to-Agent (A2A) communication, swarm intelligence, or multi-modal agent workflows.
- Real-Time Operations: Experience working in environments requiring operational real-time processing (e.g., FinTech, Energy, Logistics).

Why This Role Matters Youwon''tjust be building chatbots here; you will be architecting the organizations "central nervous system." As the Lead AI Engineer for Agentic Systems, you are bridging the gap between static data models and active decision-making. The autonomous workflows you designcapable of planning, collaborating (A2A), and executing taskswill fundamentally change how weoperate, moving us from human-dependent processes to self-healing, intelligent systems. This is a rare opportunity to define the standards for Agentic AI in a production workplace, working with a stack thatrepresentsthe absolutecutting edgeof the industry.
