Senior Agentic Engineer

About the role

Farther is a rapidly growing RIA that combines expert advisors with cutting‑edge technology to deliver a comprehensive, tailored wealth‑management experience. Founded by leaders from private wealth, fintech, and technology production, the company is backed by top‑tier venture capital and industry leaders. As an Agentic Engineer you will build agentic solutions that change how the business runs, working with Farther’s proprietary data model and vendor integrations to design, ship and run AI agents that take on real operational work in a regulated wealth‑management environment.

Responsibilities

• Partner directly with business stakeholders to find high‑value workflows and turn their needs into clear, prioritized agentic solutions
• Design and build production agents that reason over and act on Farther's data model and vendor integrations (custodians, CRM, planning and other third‑party systems)
• Make architectural decisions that favor scalable, strategic solutions over one‑off fixes, using strong software engineering practices (testing, code review, CI/CD, infrastructure as code)
• Build and maintain the integrations that connect agents to internal services and external vendor platforms
• Own production readiness: set up monitoring, alerting, logging and evaluation so agent behavior is observable, reliable and safe
• Lead complex rollouts to business‑facing users
• Train and support users so they can confidently use agentic tools in their daily work
• Track adoption and business impact, and feed what you learn from real usage back into the product roadmap
• Set guardrails and access controls suited to a regulated financial environment

Requirements

• 5+ years of professional software engineering experience using Python, SQL, HTTP, AWS
• Track record of designing systems that scale
• Hands‑on experience with AI coding tools such as Claude Code, and a workflow built around using them effectively
• Professional experience building AI Agents (Claude Managed Agents or Anthropic Claude Agent SDK preferred)
• Deep understanding of cloud and serverless architectures (AWS Bedrock AgentCore preferred; alternates include GCP Vertex AI Agent Builder, Azure AI Foundry, LangGraph Cloud / Crew AI)
• Experience supporting operations functions and teams
• Strong ownership mindset: you care about adoption and outcomes, not just shipping code
• Strong business judgment: you can separate must‑have features from nice‑to‑haves and explain trade‑offs clearly
• Experience working one‑on‑one with demanding users and turning their feedback into product decisions
• History of carrying complex, business‑facing applications through rollout, not just building them
• Excellent communication skills with both technical and non‑technical audiences

Skills

• AWS (Lambda, ECS, S3, Step Functions, EventBridge, API Gateway, CloudWatch)
• Python
• Infrastructure as code (AWS CDK)
• AI coding tools, MCPs, LLM APIs and agent frameworks
• REST APIs and event‑driven architectures
• Observability tooling

• Opportunity to work alongside some of the brightest minds in fintech
• Ground‑floor opportunity at a fast‑scaling startup
• Chart your own growth path as we expand
• Learn & grow through book clubs, seminars, and peer learning sessions
