Agentic AI Engineer

About the role

This role combines deep technical expertise with strong product skills to design AI applications that leverage prompting, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), agentic orchestration, evaluation pipelines, and human-in-the-loop systems to deliver measurable impact.

Responsibilities

• Architect modular, reusable AI application patterns
• Integrate multiple model providers such as cloud-hosted, local, and hybrid
• Apply modern GenAI stack capabilities, including structured prompting, tool use, workflow orchestration, and multi-modal reasoning
• Design solutions deployable across various contexts, from cloud-hosted platforms to portable, self-contained builds
• Optimize for latency, cost efficiency, observability, and safety
• Rapidly prototype and iterate using AI-assisted development tools
• Validate hypotheses through evaluation-driven development and continuous experimentation
• Select and combine prompting strategies, RAG architectures, agentic workflows, and fine-tuned or foundation models as appropriate
• Collaborate with data engineers, data scientists, solutions architects, and product owners to deliver world-class solutions

Requirements

• 1+ years of experience designing, developing, or deploying AI-driven systems, including autonomous agents, LLM-based systems, or automated decision pipelines
• 1+ years of experience with an object-oriented programming language such as Python, and applying it to AI/ML solution development
• Experience with agent orchestration frameworks such as LangChain, AutoGen, CrewAI, or custom agent frameworks
• Experience integrating LLMs, GPT-class models, or multimodal models into applications, pipelines, or mission systems
• Experience with RAG architectures, evaluation methodologies, experimentation workflows, and asynchronous or event-driven programming patterns
• Experience working in cross-functional delivery environments with data scientists, ML engineers, SREs, product managers, and security teams, and creating reference architectures and technical roadmaps
