AI Agent Engineer

Job Description

The Role:

We are seeking an AI Agent Engineer to design, build, and operationalize AI-powered agents that enhance employee productivity and decision-making in a complex enterprise environment. The ideal candidate combines strong AI/ML foundations, hands-on experience with agent frameworks, and a pragmatic approach to delivering business value in partnership with cross-functional teams.

Experience with Glean (or similar enterprise AI search/assistant platforms) is a strong plus.

• Design and develop AI agents

  • Engineer and implement AI agents and workflows that automate and augment knowledge work.

  • Translate business requirements into robust agent designs, including tool orchestration, routing logic, and guardrails.

  • Prototype quickly, then harden solutions for reliability, scalability, and maintainability.

• AI/ML and platform integration

  • Leverage LLMs and related AI services (e.g., retrieval-augmented generation, embeddings, vector search) to power agent capabilities.

  • Integrate agents with enterprise systems, APIs, and data sources (e.g., collaboration tools, knowledge repositories, ticketing systems).

  • Partner with platform teams (e.g., Glean, M365, internal APIs) to ensure secure and compliant integrations.

• Agent lifecycle management

  • Define and implement monitoring, logging, and feedback loops to continuously improve agent performance.

  • Establish and maintain evaluation frameworks, metrics, and test harnesses for AI agent behavior and output quality.

  • Document agent architectures, decision logic, and dependencies for support and future enhancements.

• Collaboration and ways of working

  • Collaborate closely with engineers, architects, data teams, and business SMEs in a highly matrixed, global environment.

  • Contribute to shared patterns, reusable components, and best practices for AI agent development.

  • Champion responsible AI, including security, privacy, compliance, and user trust considerations.

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Data Science, or related field; or equivalent practical experience.

• 3-7+ years of professional software engineering or AI/ML engineering experience in complex, enterprise environments.

• Strong proficiency in at least one modern programming language (e.g., Python, Type Script/JavaScript, Java).

• Hands-on experience with LLM-based applications, AI frameworks, or agent tooling (e.g., Lang Chain, Semantic Kernel, custom orchestration frameworks).

• Solid understanding of Prompt engineering and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), RESTful APIs and integration patterns, and Data structures, algorithms, and basic ML/LLM concepts.

• Experience building production services (microservices or serverless) with appropriate observability and testing.

• Experience with Glean or similar enterprise AI search/assistant platforms (e.g., integrating sources, configuring tools, designing agents or workflows within the platform).

• Experience with Microsoft 365 and AI assistants (e.g., Copilot) or other enterprise collaboration ecosystems.

• Familiarity with Enterprise identity and access management concepts (e.g., RBAC, least privilege), Observability and telemetry for AI systems (e.g., logging, tracing, quality dashboards), and experimentation and A/B testing for AI features.

• Background in user-centric design or close collaboration with UX teams for AI experiences.
