Description

  • Architect and build production-grade agentic systems with orchestration, planning, memory, context management, and human-in-the-loop controls.
  • Develop shared AI platform capabilities, including agent frameworks, MCP and tool integrations, LLM gateways, and prompt/model versioning.
  • Establish evaluation, tracing, observability, and monitoring practices for AI quality, latency, cost, and safety.
  • Build AI-driven engineering workflows and automation that improve developer velocity and reduce operational toil.
  • Design and manage GCP/AWS infrastructure for AI workloads, including provisioning, scaling, security, and cost governance.
  • Implement guardrails, scoped permissions, sandboxing, prompt-injection defenses, audit trails, and graceful degradation.
  • Own technical standards, design reviews, architecture decisions, and continuous optimization of AI platform reliability and cost.
  • Mentor engineers and collaborate with product engineering, SRE, infrastructure, security, and leadership teams.

Requirements

  • 12+ years of software engineering experience, including significant senior or staff-level individual-contributor experience.
  • At least 1+ year architecting production agentic systems involving multi-step tool use, orchestration, memory, context management, and guardrails.
  • Expert proficiency in Go, Python, or Node.js.
  • Hands-on experience writing and reviewing code, debugging production issues, and designing systems; purely managerial experience in the last 1+ year is not suitable.
  • Strong knowledge of LLM application fundamentals, including function calling, MCP, retrieval, context engineering, prompt/model management, and evaluation methods.
  • Deep AI observability experience using tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, ELK/OpenSearch, or equivalent.
  • Strong distributed-systems expertise covering consistency, availability, fault tolerance, scaling, and trade-offs.
  • Demonstrated enterprise cloud cost optimization, including LLM inference and token-spend management through routing, caching, and budgets.
  • Practical GCP and/or AWS experience with provisioning, scaling, IAM, networking, and cost governance; 3+ years on enterprise-scale platform teams preferred.
  • Proven technical leadership without authority, data-driven decision-making, strong communication, and open-source or published agentic-systems work preferred.

Benefits

  • Remote-first work environment across a global organization.
  • Equal opportunity employer with voluntary demographic information collection kept separate from hiring decisions.
  • Access to a large-scale AI and platform engineering environment supporting businesses in 150+ countries.
