Agentic AI Engineer

Agentic AI Engineer

The Senior AI Agentic Engineer designs, builds, and operationalizes intelligent agent systems that automate complex enterprise business processes end-to-end. This role works at the intersection of LLMs, systems engineering, and applied machine learning — architecting multi-agent pipelines, tool-augmented reasoning systems, and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) workflows across a range of enterprise platforms and open-source frameworks — with the expectation that the right candidate brings familiarity with the broader and rapidly evolving ecosystem.

The ideal candidate brings deep hands-on engineering experience with a proven track record of delivering agentic AI systems into production at enterprise scale — not just prototypes — applying rigorous software engineering principles including modular system design, testability, resilience engineering, and security-by-design to ensure agents are maintainable, reliable, and safe in the long run. This means architecting for failure — building in retries, fallbacks, and graceful degradation — and treating latency and cost as first-class engineering constraints from day one, not afterthoughts discovered in production.

Beyond technical delivery, the Senior AI Agentic Engineer mentors engineers across the team, shapes the organization's AI automation strategy, translates ambiguous business problems into well-structured agentic solutions, and drives the responsible and secure deployment of AI agents across business-critical functions.

• Design, build, and deploy end-to-end agentic AI systems using LLMs, tools, memory, and planning frameworks to automate complex, multi-step enterprise business processes.
• Architect and implement both single-agent and multi-agent workflows for autonomous task execution, decision support, and orchestration — defining agent roles, memory strategies, tool integrations, and handoff protocols.
• Develop tool-using agents with function calling, structured outputs, API integrations, database connectors, RPA hooks, and enterprise workflow triggers.
• Lead the integration of agentic solutions with enterprise systems including ERP, Business apps and orchestration platforms such as Databricks, Airflow, and Azure Data Factory.

• Design and optimize RAG pipelines including document ingestion, chunking strategies, embedding models, vector store selection, and retrieval ranking for enterprise knowledge bases.
• Implement advanced retrieval techniques such as hybrid search, metadata filtering, re-ranking, and query rewriting to improve grounding and reduce hallucination.
• Evaluate and continuously tune RAG systems for accuracy, latency, factual grounding, and cost efficiency.

• Evaluate and select frontier and open-source LLMs (e.g., GPT-4o, Claude, Llama, Mistral, Gemini) and apply fine-tuning strategies — including instruction tuning appropriate to each business use case.
• Optimize prompts, system instructions, and output schemas for reliability, determinism, and safety across agentic pipelines.
• Apply reinforcement or feedback-driven optimization where applicable, including human-in-the-loop and automated evaluation loops.

• Define evaluation frameworks for agentic systems covering task success, factuality, grounding, latency, cost, and failure mode analysis.
• Build observability and monitoring pipelines for agent behavior, tool call traces, and runtime failure detection.
• Partner with governance, risk, and compliance teams to ensure responsible AI practices, audit traceability, data privacy, and regulatory adherence across all deployed agents.

• Deploy GenAI and agentic systems into production using cloud-native architectures on platforms such as Azure, AWS Bedrock, or Vertex AI with containerized (Docker/Kubernetes) delivery.
• Implement CI/CD pipelines, prompt versioning, rollback strategies, and runtime safeguards for LLM applications in enterprise environments.
• Optimize deployed systems for performance, cost efficiency, and scalability under real-world load.
