Lead Agentic AI & Java Integration Consultant

NTT DATA, a global technology services organization, is seeking a Lead Agentic AI & Java Integration Consultant to work in Charlotte, North Carolina.

Location:

Charlotte, North Carolina (US-NC), United States (US).

While our infrastructure teams optimize the underlying hardware and gateway layers, we require a Lead Agentic AI Engineer to seamlessly integrate these highly optimized GenAI capabilities into our large-scale, distributed Java applications. You will orchestrate complex AI agents and translate ambiguous business problems into reliable, production-ready systems using modern frameworks and event-driven architectures.

• Agentic System Orchestration
  :
  Design and coordinate AI agents using Lang Chain and Lang Graph to manage tool calling, memory, control flow, and multi-step reasoning.
• Java/Spring Boot Integration
  :
  Embed GenAI workflows into massive-scale enterprise applications leveraging Java, Spring Boot, APIs, and microservices.
• Advanced RAG Pipelines
  :
  Architect robust GenAI patterns including Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), semantic search, and the full embeddings/vector database lifecycle.
• Application-Level Guardrails
  :
  Collaborate with the platform team to enforce prompt injection defenses, data privacy constraints, explainability, and Human-in-the-Loop (HITL) approval flows within the business logic.
• Evaluation & Operationalization
  :
  Define automated evaluation pipelines using Deep Eval (or equivalent) to monitor for accuracy, conceptual drift, and hallucinations at the application tier.
• Technical Leadership
  :
  Define GenAI engineering standards for application development and mentor teams on when to apply agent-based approaches versus conventional deterministic services.

• 8+ years of software engineering experience, anchored in enterprise Java and Spring Boot.
• Deep, hands‑on expertise in Agentic AI frameworks (Lang Chain, Lang Graph) and prompt engineering (structured outputs, function calling).
• Proven experience building and scaling RAG pipelines and vector database integrations.
• Experience integrating seamlessly with secure API gateways and optimized LLM endpoints.
• Must be onsite at client in Charlotte, NC at least 3 days per week.
• Demonstrated ability to navigate enterprise security, regulatory constraints, and complex architectures.
