Senior Full Stack​/AI Agents Engineer; Azure

In this role, you will design and build next-generation applications powered by AI agents on the Microsoft Azure ecosystem. You'll own features end-to-end, from responsive front-end experiences to scalable back-end services and agent orchestration layers, building applications for, driven by, and consumed by AI agents - combining strong full stack fundamentals with cutting-edge agentic AI development.

Please note that this is a hybrid role, requiring office attendance at least twice a week.

• Design and build full stack, production-grade applications based on AI agents and multi-agent architectures.
• Develop modern, responsive web UIs supporting conversational experiences, real-time streaming agent responses, and dashboards for monitoring agents.
• Build robust back-end services and APIs (REST, gRPC, MCP) in Python (FastAPI), enabling agent-to-agent and agent-to-system communication.
• Develop agentic workflows using frameworks such as Semantic Kernel, Auto Gen, Lang Chain/Lang Graph, or Azure AI Agent Service.
• Integrate LLMs via Azure OpenAI Service, including prompt engineering, function/tool calling, and RAG pipelines.
• Design chunking and indexing strategies for RAG pipelines (semantic chunking, hybrid search, re-ranking) to optimize retrieval quality.
• Build and maintain evaluation pipelines for LLM/agent outputs (e.g., RAGAS, promptfoo, or custom eval frameworks) to measure accuracy, relevance, and reliability.
• Design cloud-native solutions using Azure Functions, AKS, Container Apps, Cosmos DB, and Azure AI Search, including data models across SQL and No
  
  SQL stores.
• Implement secure, observable, cost-optimized systems using Azure Monitor, Key Vault, Entra , and CI/CD pipelines with infrastructure-as-code.

• 8+ years of full stack engineering experience, with at least 3 years on the Azure stack.
• Strong back-end skills in Python, with a solid grasp of distributed systems and microservices.
• Hands‑on experience building applications with LLMs and agent frameworks (Semantic Kernel, Auto Gen, Lang Graph, or similar).
• Experience with Azure OpenAI, Azure AI Foundry, and vector databases (Azure AI Search, Cosmos DB vector search).
• Proven experience with RAG architectures, embeddings, chunking/indexing strategies, prompt orchestration, and tool/function calling.
• Hands‑on experience with evaluation frameworks for LLM/agent outputs and defining quality metrics for AI systems.
• Experience designing end-to‑end agentic solution architectures (multi‑agent orchestration, tool/agent boundaries, error‑handling and fallback strategies).
• Experience building real-time features (Web Sockets, SignalR, SSE) for streaming AI/agent responses.
• Solid understanding of authentication/authorization (OAuth2, Entra ) and Dev Ops practices (CI/CD, IaC, Docker/Kubernetes).
