Agent Application Engineer (Backend / Agentic AI) — Level 1
About Sentiaflow
Sentiaflow is an AI engineering and IT services company that designs and delivers production-grade agentic AI systems. We work at the point where large language models meet real business operations: data, APIs, permissions, workflow state, human decisions, security, evaluation, and measurable outcomes.
Our initial domain focus is healthcare, particularly clinical trials and related operational workflows. These are environments where an impressive demo is not enough. A system must be dependable, traceable, appropriately controlled, and clear about when a human must make the decision.
We are building a specialised engineering organisation across three disciplines:
- Agent Application Engineering
- Agent Platform & Evaluation Engineering
- Applied AI & Model Engineering
The Role
We are hiring strong backend or application engineers who want to specialise in building agentic AI applications. You do not need to arrive with several years of "agent engineer" experience. We are more interested in whether you have built real software, understand how production systems fail, and can learn to use models inside controlled business workflows.
As a Level 1 Agent Application Engineer, you will implement bounded parts of a production workflow under the guidance of an Agent Captain or senior engineer. Your work will connect models to application services, tools, data sources, and human approval points. You will be expected to make every important step observable, testable, and recoverable.
This is not a prompt-writing position, and it is not a generic chatbot role. It is an application engineering role for systems in which some decisions are probabilistic, while the surrounding controls must remain deterministic.
What You Will Work On
The specific client problem will vary, but typical work may include:
- Converting a clinical-operations signal into a bounded workflow that gathers evidence, analyses likely causes, presents options, and routes a recommendation to an authorised person.
- Building services that extract or structure information from trial documents and pass the result through validation and human review.
- Integrating agent workflows with internal APIs, databases, document systems, notification services, and client platforms.
- Implementing workflow state, recovery behaviour, approval gates, permissions, traceability, and scenario-based evaluations.
The work concerns operational decision support and workflow execution. It does not delegate clinical judgment or patient-care decisions to an autonomous model.
What You Will Be Responsible For
- Translate a clearly scoped business workflow into typed inputs, outputs, states, actions, and escalation paths.
- Build reliable application services and tool integrations using Node.js/TypeScript or Python.
- Use an LLM only where model judgment adds value; implement rules, validation, authorisation, and workflow control in deterministic code.
- Design structured model outputs and validate them before they can affect downstream systems.
- Handle partial data, unavailable tools, duplicate events, retries, time-outs, rate limits, and other normal production failure modes.
- Add logging, traces, metrics, and decision records that make the workflow diagnosable.
- Create tests and evaluation cases that measure whether the complete workflow behaves correctly—not merely whether an answer sounds fluent.
- Protect sensitive information and participate in code, design, failure-analysis, and release-readiness reviews.
- Explain your implementation and its trade-offs clearly to engineers, delivery leads, and client stakeholders.
At Level 1, you will not be expected to define the entire client architecture alone. You will be expected to own your assigned module, ask precise questions, surface risks early, and bring it to a production-ready standard with senior review.
What We Are Looking For
Essential Experience
- Approximately 3–6 years of hands-on backend or application engineering experience.
- Evidence that you have built or materially owned production APIs, services, data flows, integrations, or workflow-heavy applications.
- Strong programming ability in JavaScript/TypeScript, Python, Java, C#, Go, or a comparable backend language. Our preference is Node.js/TypeScript, but engineering depth matters more than language loyalty.
- Practical understanding of API design, databases, asynchronous processing, authentication and authorisation, testing, and deployment.
- Ability to reason clearly about state, retries, idempotency, concurrency, permissions, audit trails, and failure recovery.
- Experience debugging real production behaviour rather than only building greenfield demonstrations.
- Clear written and verbal communication, including the ability to explain technical trade-offs without hiding behind framework terminology.
Useful, but Not Mandatory
- Experience integrating LLM or machine-learning capabilities into an application.
- Experience with event-driven systems, state machines, workflow engines, observability, evaluation harnesses, or production incident analysis.
- Experience in healthcare, life sciences, clinical trials, or another regulated or audit-sensitive environment.
Healthcare or clinical-trials experience is preferred, not required at Level 1. We would rather hire a strong production engineer who can learn the domain than a candidate who knows the vocabulary but cannot build dependable systems.
What Does Not Qualify by Itself
Any of the following may be useful experience, but none is sufficient on its own:
- A chatbot or "chat with your documents" application.
- A RAG demonstration built primarily by connecting frameworks.
- A list of AI tools, model names, courses, certificates, or prompt-engineering techniques.
- An application that works in a demo but has no clear handling of permissions, failures, evaluation, or production operations.
How We Will Assess Fit
Our evaluation is designed to identify engineering judgment without asking you to build unpaid project work. We will focus on:
- A structured discussion of a production system you have worked on.
- Questions grounded in your own CV and claimed experience.
- A realistic workflow scenario covering system boundaries, evidence, controls, failure modes, and testing.
- Backend fundamentals and how you would apply them to an AI-enabled workflow.
You are NOT expected to have built a clinical-trials agent before applying.
What Success Looks Like
Within your first six months, you should be able to:
- Implement a bounded agent-workflow module from an agreed design and take responsibility for its quality.
- Integrate models and tools without allowing probabilistic output to bypass deterministic controls.
- Produce traces, tests, and evaluation evidence that support a release decision.
- Diagnose failures across application, tool, data, and model boundaries with progressively less supervision.
- Explain the workflow to a client or domain stakeholder in clear operational language.
Consistent performance at this level creates a path towards Level 2 — Independent Delivery Engineer, where you own a production workflow end to end, including discovery, architecture, integrations, evaluation, failure handling, and release readiness.
Why You Should Join Us
- Build the real systems behind agentic AI. You will work beyond demos and wrappers on the engineering problems that determine whether an AI workflow can operate in production.
- Develop a scarce, durable specialisation. Sentiaflow offers a defined progression across application engineering, platform and evaluation, and applied AI—not a vague instruction to "learn AI."
- Work on consequential operational problems. Clinical-trials workflows demand evidence, traceability, human accountability, and reliable execution.
- Learn through delivery with experienced review. You will own meaningful engineering work while receiving architectural and domain guidance appropriate to your level.
- Influence how the discipline is built. We are at an early stage, so strong engineers will help shape our methods, reusable assets, quality standards, and engineering culture.

Our initial domain focus is healthcare, particularly clinical trials, where reliability, traceability, and clear human-decision boundaries matter more than a slick demo.
Job Description
As a Level 1 engineer, you'll implement bounded parts of a production agentic workflow under an Agent Captain or senior engineer, connecting models to application services, tools, data sources, and human approval points.
You will:
- Translate a scoped business workflow into typed inputs, outputs, states, actions, and escalation paths
- Build backend services and tool integrations (Node.js/TypeScript or Python)
- Use LLMs only where model judgment adds value; keep rules, validation, authorization, and workflow control in deterministic code
- Design and validate structured model outputs before they touch downstream systems
- Handle partial data, tool failures, duplicate events, retries, timeouts, rate limits
- Add logging, traces, metrics, and decision records for diagnosability
- Write tests and evaluation cases that check whether the full workflow behaves correctly — not just whether output sounds fluent
- Protect sensitive data; participate in code, design, and release-readiness reviews
- Explain implementation trade-offs clearly to engineers and stakeholders
Success in 6 months: own a bounded workflow module end-to-end, integrate models without letting probabilistic output bypass deterministic controls, produce release-ready evaluation evidence, and diagnose cross-boundary failures with less supervision.
Desired Skills
- Approximately 3–6 years hands-on backend/application engineering experience, with demonstrable hands-on work building agentic systems — not just calling an LLM API from a backend service
- LangGraph (or comparable agent orchestration framework) experience is required — building multi-step, stateful agent workflows with conditional branching, tool-calling loops, and recovery/retry logic, not a single-prompt wrapper
- Deep RAG experience, including:
- Chunking strategy design, embedding model selection, and retrieval evaluation (not just "connected a vector DB")
- Hybrid search (dense + sparse/keyword), re-ranking, and query rewriting/decomposition
- Handling retrieval failure modes: irrelevant context, stale data, contradictory sources, citation/grounding accuracy
- Measuring RAG quality (precision/recall on retrieval, faithfulness/groundedness of generation) — not eyeballing outputs
- Experience designing agent state machines / workflow graphs: tool selection, planning loops, human-in-the-loop interrupts, checkpointing, and state persistence across long-running workflows
- Strong programming in JS/TypeScript (preferred), Python, Java, C#, or Go
- Solid grasp of API design, databases, async processing, auth, testing, deployment
- Comfort reasoning about state, retries, idempotency, concurrency, permissions, audit trails, failure recovery
- Real production debugging experience, not just greenfield builds
- Clear technical communication
We're looking for engineers who've actually built and tuned agentic/RAG systems in production — not those who've only wired together frameworks or prompted an LLM API.
Nice to have: experience with other orchestration frameworks (CrewAI, AutoGen, custom state machines), observability/eval tooling (LangSmith, Langfuse, custom trace pipelines), healthcare or regulated-industry background. Bachelors from IIT or NIT highly preferred.

Role :
A Software Engineer who builds the tools this company runs on. You build agent loops, and the loops build the solutions. You work towards a Company Brain that anyone here can ask.3–5 years’ experience · Reports to the CFO ·
THE KEY SKILL
You build the agent loops that build the solutions. You will not write every automation by hand. You build the loops that
write them. Ship a prototype every week. You ship something every day.
You’ll be building a Company Brain with access control. One system that holds what the company knows about finance,delivery and people. Anyone can ask it a question. Each person sees only what they are cleared to see.
One hard filter. If you cannot write and debug production code, and have not done it before, please do not apply.
CORE RESPONSIBILITIES
• Work the backlog: You pick items off a live, ranked backlog. You learn each function by building inside it. There is no discovery phase. What you learn goes back into the backlog and changes what comes next.
• Build the product: You design, build and ship tools that people use every day. Reconciliation, MIS, the deal desk,quote to cash, or whatever the real bottleneck turns out to be. You choose the tools and frameworks.
• Wire the data: Connect the systems each team already uses, so that the same number means the same thing everywhere.
• Make it visible: You build live dashboards and alerts that leaders read on their own, instead of asking someone for a report.
• Keep it running: You own uptime and accuracy for everything you build. Anything that touches money or people needs a person in the loop.
THE STACK
• Build with: Python and TypeScript. You write production code. Frontier model APIs from Anthropic, OpenAI or Google, with tool calling and structured output. At least one agent framework. MCP to connect agents to internal systems.Postgres and pgvector, or something similar, for retrieval. You deploy on GCP, and you debug your own work.
• Work in agents daily: Claude Code, Cursor or something like them, as the way you write code every day. You should have a clear view on how to run the loop, and on when a person has to step in.
• Connect to: The systems we already run on for accounting, CRM, hiring and IT support, along with Google Workspace.Most of the work is getting them to agree with each other.
• Check what you ship: Anything that produces a number needs a way to catch it going quietly wrong. Test sets, regression checks, and alerts on the output as well as on the job.
WHAT GOOD LOOKS LIKE
• Something you built is running by week two, and someone is using it.
• By day 90, time spent on reconciliation or reporting is down by a number you can defend to the CFO.
• Every tool you ship has a named owner who is still using it 60 days later. That is the measure that counts.
• Leaders stop asking for numbers, because they can already see them.
• By the end of your first year, a first version of the Company Brain answers real questions about Finance, and each
person who asks sees only what they are cleared to see.
WHO THIS IS FOR
• You have built products: 3 to 5 years at a software product company, on a product with real users at scale. That means 100k+ monthly active users, or heavy daily use by a large enterprise customer base. You have owned code in production, in front of real users, long after it shipped.
• You ship alone: You are comfortable as the only engineer in the room, and the only person on call for what you built.
• You work out new ground fast: A domain you do not know is interesting to you. You start without waiting for a spec or an expert.
• You are fluent with agents: One person cannot cover a whole company by hand. You use agent loops heavily and youare good at it.
• You write and speak clearly: Half this job is pulling a process out of a finance or delivery lead and giving it back to them correctly. You work remotely, so this matters a great deal.
HOW WE WILL ASSESS
• A design problem: Live. We give you a function of the B2B company, and you design the system for it. We watch how you break down a domain you do not know, how you size it, and what you leave out on purpose.
• A build exercise: Live and screen-shared, on your own setup, with your own agents. You build the way you normally build. We watch how you run the loop, when you step in, and what you decide to skip.
• Your work and your questions: We talk about what you have shipped before. You ask us whatever you want.
Communication is not a separate round. All three sessions are live, and how clearly you explain your thinking is part of how we judge you.
WHERE IT LEADS
You report to the CEO and CFO from your first day. Your charter covers the whole company. Nothing sits between you and production. Very few engineering jobs offer all three at once, and that is why this one exists.
In 18 months you will know how this company really runs: the data, the money, and the gaps between teams. The rolethen changes shape to fit whatever the biggest open problem is by then.
About the Role
Unico Connect is an AI-first technology partner that builds custom mobile, web, and AI products for clients across multiple geographies. We are hiring a Backend Engineer for a dedicated client engagement building an AI-powered application builder platform.
The backend is the operational core of the product: it manages user projects and sessions, coordinates long-running AI agent workloads, maintains project state, and serves as the integration layer between the frontend, the AI system, and the underlying infrastructure.
The mandatory requirement is hands-on production experience shipping Node.js services, with end-to-end ownership of API design, data modelling, and at least one production system involving background job processing or event-driven patterns.
Responsibilities
API and service development: Design and build REST APIs in Node.js with TypeScript. Cover authentication, session management, input validation, structured error handling, streaming responses (SSE, WebSockets), and rate limiting. Maintain clean API contracts that the frontend and AI system can rely on.
Database design and management: Own PostgreSQL schema design for product domains including user accounts, projects, file trees, session state, and generated artefacts. Write efficient queries, manage migrations, and optimise for read patterns that serve a real-time editor experience.
Caching strategy: Implement and maintain caching with Redis for session data, project state, and frequently read configuration. Design cache invalidation logic that keeps the editor experience consistent without stale reads.
Queue and background job management: Implement and operate background job infrastructure using BullMQ or equivalent. AI agent runs are long-running and stateful; handle retries, failure states, priority queues, and concurrency limits.
AI system integration: Build the integration layer between the backend and the AI agent system. Manage job dispatch, result handling, streaming output to the frontend, and error propagation.
Multi-tenancy and access control: Implement tenant data isolation, RBAC, and resource ownership enforcement across all API surfaces.
Observability and reliability: Instrument services with structured logging, metrics, and tracing. Write defensive code with sensible timeouts, fallback behaviour, and circuit breaking on external dependencies.
Testing and code quality: Write unit and integration tests for the services you ship. Review the work of peers and contribute to shared engineering conventions.
Requirements
• Hands-on production Node.js experience (mandatory) — must have personally shipped at least one feature area end to end in a production Node.js service, owning API design, data modelling, and testing.
• 3 to 5 years of professional backend engineering experience. Candidates with slightly less time but strong demonstrated ownership are welcome to apply.
• Strong Node.js and TypeScript. Production experience with Express, NestJS, or Fastify. Solid with async patterns, streaming, error handling, and building services that run reliably under sustained load.
• PostgreSQL depth. Schema design, query writing, indexing, and migrations on at least one production system.
• Redis and caching. Production experience using Redis for caching and session management. Understands cache invalidation trade-offs.
• Queue and background job systems. Hands-on with BullMQ, RabbitMQ, SQS, or equivalent. Experience managing retries, dead-letter queues, job priority, and concurrency control.
• AWS working knowledge. Comfortable with EC2, S3, RDS, SQS, and IAM. Familiar with Docker and basic deployment and environment management.
• Strong written and spoken English. Able to communicate clearly with engineers across disciplines and write precise technical documentation.
Nice to Have
Experience integrating with AI or LLM services (streaming responses, structured outputs, retry patterns); WebSocket or SSE implementation for real-time features; multi-tenant SaaS product experience; GraphQL; OpenTelemetry instrumentation; prior work on developer tools or editor-style products.
Experience: 8+ years, senior candidates only | Type: Full-time | Location: Remote (India)

WHAT WE'RE BUILDING
We're building Juliet, an AI that runs marketing end to end. Our users are marketers, founders, CEOs, growth leads, agencies, and SMBs — not developers. They
tell Juliet the goal. She plans, writes production code, and ships real marketing: conversion-optimized websites, launch assets, campaigns, audits, autonomously.
That's the engineering problem in one line: the humans in the loop can't read code, so the agent has to get it right on her own — plan, build, self-correct,
recover, ship.
Under the hood: a browser-based studio backed by cloud sandboxes, a real-time SSE streaming pipeline, and a LangGraph agent working across 83 tools and 63 skill
modules. The agent isn't bolted onto the product. She is the product.
Small team, big ambitions. You'll ship things users touch daily, not write tickets about them.
---
THE ROLE
We're hiring one architect-level backend engineer to own Juliet's agentic infrastructure end to end. That means the agent graph, the execution environment, the
streaming pipeline, the state and memory systems — and setting technical direction for the engineers working alongside you.
This is a player-coach seat. You'll still write code every day, and your architectural calls become the product. You'll work directly with the founder. No PMs in
between.
Frontend is part of the system. You won't be leading it, but you'll need to understand how the agent's output reaches the browser and be able to ship full-stack
features when needed.
---
THE STACK
AI agent (primary): Python 3.11, LangGraph 1.x + LangChain, Anthropic / Google / OpenAI model providers
API (primary): NestJS 11, Supabase, Redis, PostgreSQL, Server-Sent Events
Infra (primary): Modal cloud sandboxes, Docker, Netlify deployments
Frontend (secondary): Next.js 15, React 19, TypeScript, Zustand, CodeMirror 6, XTerm.js
Monorepo: Turborepo, pnpm
---
WHAT YOU'LL WORK ON
The majority of your time is here:
Agentic AI workflows — Design, extend, and harden the LangGraph agent graph: multi-step planning, code generation, tool dispatch, self-correction, and recovery
across 83 tools and 63 skill modules. This is the core of the product.
Real-time streaming architecture — The SSE pipeline that carries every agent action from the Python backend through NestJS to the browser: event framing,
reconnection, health monitoring, interrupt handling for plan approvals and clarifying questions.
Agent execution environments — Sandbox lifecycle on Modal: container spin-up, file sync, terminal I/O, command execution, and live preview with per-asset esbuild
bundling. The agent lives here.
State and memory systems — LangGraph Postgres checkpointers, middleware-injected context (goals, design docs, memory anchors), conversation summarization. How
the agent knows what it knows.
Backend API and data layer — NestJS services, Supabase schema, Redis caching, quota enforcement, webhook handling. The plumbing the agent depends on.
Marketing intelligence pipelines — AEO, CRO, and brand-perception audit engines: multi-LLM probing, parallel inference, streamed structured reports, result
caching. Audit-at-scale infrastructure.
The remaining ~25% of your time:
Full-stack product features — Collaboration (roles and permissions), the Netlify deployment pipeline, subscription and quota flows, onboarding. You'll ship these
end to end — backend first, frontend to close the loop.
---
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
Must-have:
- 8+ years of professional software engineering, including meaningful time as a tech lead or systems architect who owned something end to end. Closer to ten is
the norm for people who thrive here.
- Both worlds on your resume: engineering rigor inside a large company and 0-to-1 ownership at an early-stage startup.
- Production agentic systems experience. You've built and operated LLM agent systems in production with LangGraph, LangChain, or equivalent — agent graphs, tool
use, state management, prompt engineering, evals. This means well beyond calling a chat endpoint.
- Strong Python. You design and ship production Python daily. The agent codebase is yours to own.
- Architect-level system design. You can own how data flows across four services, make tradeoffs under uncertainty, and defend every call.
- AI-native development workflow. You drive Claude Code, Codex, or similar agentic tools as everyday instruments — not occasionally. You have opinions about
working with coding agents because you do it constantly.
- Real-time backend systems. You've built SSE, WebSocket, or streaming API infrastructure in production — not just consumed it.
- Strong TypeScript. The API layer and most product features are in TypeScript. You're productive in it.
Strong plus:
- Background in developer tools, IDEs, or coding/execution platforms
- Container runtimes and sandboxed execution (Modal, E2B, Firecracker, or similar)
- Depth in PostgreSQL, Redis, and Supabase
- LLM observability and evals tooling (LangSmith or similar)
- NestJS or equivalent Node.js API framework experience
- React/Next.js — enough to ship a full-stack feature without handoff
- Exposure to marketing, growth, or publisher-facing products
---
WHY THIS ROLE IS DIFFERENT
You own the architecture. Not a feature factory. Not someone else's design doc. The technical execution of an AI product is yours to lead.
The agent is the product. You're not adding AI to an existing system. You're building and operating the system that is the AI. Every architectural decision
touches what Juliet can and can't do.
Hard problems, always. The system spans cloud sandboxes, streaming infrastructure, multi-step agent graphs, and a full-stack web product — for non-technical
users who can't course-correct a broken output. The bar is high.
Small team, real leverage. Your code ships to users the same week. No layers of approval.
---
HOW TO APPLY
Send us:
1. A short note on the most complex agentic system you've shipped: what broke, and what you'd redo. A link to something you've built that involves agent graphs, tool use, or autonomous multi-step execution
2. What is one thing you would improve about Juliet? It could be a feature or a bug.

Role- Sr Senior Engineer
Location -Hyderabad
Shift -Night Shift starts from 8:30 PM IST
About The Role
As a Senior Engineer on the team, you will own systems end to end across a high-volume, event-driven surface. You'll build the APIs and services behind key initiatives including:
- The driver comms platform — the rules engine, cohorting, and scheduling that reach drivers across SMS, push, and email
- The onboarding funnel and applicant tracking layer, architected to support Veho's move to an in-house system over time
- Live selling workflows that turn live offer and market-clearing data into well-timed, well-targeted driver outreach
You'll partner closely with Product, Design, Operations, and Data Science to ship tooling that scales with Veho's growth.
Responsibilities Include:
- Design, build, test, and deploy features across the driver-facing apps (driver mobile app, onboarding and registration surfaces), our GraphQL APIs, and the event-driven services behind them
- Own a problem end to end: write the design doc your team works from, build it, roll it out behind a feature flag, and stay on it after launch until it is stable
- Own the driver comms platform — the rules engine, cohorting, and scheduling that decide when to reach a driver over SMS, push, or email, and the delivery services behind it
- Build the onboarding funnel and applicant tracking layer: registration and set-password flows, consent and eligibility gating, and the integrations that track where every applicant sits in the funnel
- Build live selling workflows that consume live offer data and market-clearing signals to notify the right driver cohorts only when routes are actually claimable
- Contribute to architectural decisions and technical design for complex, distributed systems, and architect today's comms and onboarding infrastructure so it supports the eventual in-house replacement of our third-party ATS rather than becoming throwaway work
- Break a project into milestones your product, design, ops, and data partners can plan against
- Write correctness-first code in an event-driven system where delivery is at-least-once and no driver may be texted twice about the same route — and where a send must never fire when there is no offer to claim
- Improve reliability and observability in the services you own, with alerts that fire on real problems and stay quiet otherwise, so an on-call engineer is paged for a broken send pipeline and not for noise
- Propose the engineering work your team should be doing, including the reliability, data-quality, and compliance work nobody is asking for
- Use AI-native development workflows and tooling (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, and similar) as part of how you ship
- Mentor the engineers around you, keep the team's code review bar high, and write down what you learn
What You Bring:
- 5–7+ years of experience building, testing, and deploying applications in high-traffic production environments
- Depth in AWS serverless, including Lambda, a managed GraphQL layer such as AppSync, DynamoDB, EventBridge, and SQS
- Experience with event-driven systems and the idempotency work that comes with at-least-once delivery — especially in a comms context where duplicate or misfired messages reach real people
- Strong full-stack experience with TypeScript, Node.js, GraphQL, and React
- Experience with DynamoDB single-table design
- Experience integrating with third-party platforms and their webhooks, and keeping the data they produce in sync and trustworthy across services
- At least one project owned through production rollout, including what broke afterward and who fixed it
- Experience operating a service in production long enough to own its failure modes
- Judgment about what a design costs in engineering time, dollars, and vendor commitment
- A self-starter mindset with the ability to move quickly and ship iteratively, including on migrations, compliance obligations, and the manual steps nobody has automated yet
- Enthusiasm for working closely with product, design, operations, data science, and support partners
-Tech Stack: AWS, TypeScript, Node.js, React, React Native, GraphQL, DynamoDB, serverless event-driven architecture;
multi-channel comms (SMS, push, email); Firebase Auth; Statsig for experimentation; Redshift/Databricks-backed data pipelines
Preferred:
- Experience with applicant tracking / recruiting funnels or other funnel-driven onboarding systems, and the drop-off analysis that improves them
- Experience with experimentation and analytics infrastructure (Statsig, Fivetran, Redshift, Databricks) to measure and tune what you ship
- Consent modeling and compliance obligations (e.g., driver terms-and-conditions and messaging consent) that span services
Responsibilities
· Build and operate the agentic loop: trigger → orchestration → agent execution → output to JIRA → human accept/reject → next agent, across design, coding, review, and testing agents.
· Implement model routing and retry logic across a provider-agnostic model layer (e.g., Claude via AWS Bedrock, self-hosted or alternative models as cost/sovereignty hedges), including business-continuity fallback if a given provider becomes unavailable.
· Own token cost control and context window management — per-agent and per-run budgets, circuit breakers that halt runaway execution, and cost observability tied back to JIRA.
· Stand up and maintain observability, alerting, and monitoring across the agent fleet (e.g., Langfuse or equivalent), so agent health, cost, and quality are visible in real time.
· Implement agent governance and safety guardrails: deterministic pre/post hooks gating every LLM call, kill switches, prompt injection prevention and mitigation, and audit logging.
· Integrate the harness with JIRA as the system of record and other business systems as needed, ensuring every agent action, decision, and human override is tracked with no side channels.
· Pair directly with client engineers throughout — this is capability transfer, not black-box delivery. You'll document, demo, and hand over as you build.
· Work in outcome-based delivery stages (spike → architecture sign-off → build → pilot) with gated milestones tied to working software demos, not fixed artifact checklists.
· Participate actively in team discussion and design decisions — this team expects engineers to challenge ideas constructively and speak up, not defer silently.
Must-Have Experience
· Hands-on production experience building agentic systems(not tutorial-level or personal-project experience.) Candidates should be able to speak concretely about systems they've shipped.
· Practical experience with agentic frameworks such as LangChain, LangGraph, or equivalent orchestration frameworks.
· Experience with LLM orchestration and model routing across multiple providers/models, including fallback and retry design.
· Working knowledge of agent governance: guardrails, human-in-the-loop approval flows, kill switches, and audit trails.
· Practical understanding of prompt injection risks and mitigation techniques.
· Experience with token cost management and context window/memory handling at production scale — this is a named governance requirement for the engagement, not a nice-to-have.
· Strong Python (or equivalent) engineering background, comfortable working in AWS environments (Bedrock/AgentCore exposure a strong plus).
· Experience with observability/monitoring tooling for distributed or agentic systems (e.g., Langfuse, Datadog, or equivalent).
· Comfortable working with JIRA/Atlassian APIs or similar ticketing-system-of-record integrations.
Nice to Have
· Direct experience with AWS Bedrock AgentCore, Temporal (or similar workflow orchestration), or LiteLLM-style model gateways.
· Exposure to Cursor or other AI-native IDEs in a production engineering context.
· Experience with self-hosted open-weight models (e.g., DeepSeek, GLM) as cost or sovereignty hedges alongside commercial APIs.
· Financial services or other regulated-industry background.
· Familiarity with Claude Code, Claude Cowork, or Claude Skills.
Qualifications
· Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.
· 3-5+ years in software/platform engineering, with a meaningful portion of that time specifically on agentic or LLM-orchestration systems (not general ML or data engineering alone).
Relevant Experience
· Already built this kind of system and can talk through the trade-offs from experience, not theory.
· Comfortable operating with ambiguity - technology choices (frameworks, specific models, tooling) are expected to evolve during the engagementand milestones are tied to outcomes rather than fixed deliverables.
· Will contribute opinions - quiet execution without a point of view is not a fit for this team.
