Senior Software Engineer – AgentOps

We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to design, build, and scale enterprise-grade agentic AI systems within the AgentOps.

This role goes beyond traditional GenAI engineering - focusing on agent orchestration, context engineering, and production-grade AI systems that automate and transform business workflows through Agents.

You will work at the intersection of LLMs, software engineering, and platform design, owning solutions end-to-end - from ideation to production - while ensuring reliability, safety, and measurable business impact.

• Work on cutting-edge agentic AI systems at enterprise scale
• Help build a symbiotic workforce of humans and AI agents
• Solve real business problems across enterprise
• Be part of shaping next-gen AI engineering practices

• Design and build multi-agent systems and orchestrated workflows for enterprise use cases
• Develop AI-powered solutions using existing SOTA LLMs from hyperscalers and enterprise data sources
• Implement RAG pipelines, knowledge retrieval, and context-aware reasoning systems

• Own full lifecycle: intake → design → validation → deployment → monitoring → improvement
• Ensure Observability, evaluation frameworks, and guardrails are in place

• Integrate AI solutions into Teams, web apps, and enterprise systems
• Build APIs, backend services, and orchestration layers for scalable deployments
• Should be well versed with one of the public cloud platform (AWS or Azure or GCP)

• Implement monitoring (latency, accuracy, failure modes) and logging pipelines
• Ensure responsible AI practices, security, and compliance
• Optimize models and workflows for cost, performance, and scalability

• Partner with product and business teams to identify high-impact agentic opportunities
• Lead PoCs and rapidly scale successful solutions into production
• Drive adoption of agentic workflows across business functions

• Bachelor’s/master’s in computer science
• 8–10+ years of software engineering experience, with strong AI/ML exposure
• Strong technical foundation in Python and modern backend engineering patterns, with experience building APIs, services, and application components
• Experience working with orchestration frameworks such as CrewAI, LangGraph, AutoGen, MAF or equivalent
• Strong working knowledge of retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), embeddings, vector search, and grounding patterns
• Experience building and deploying cloud-native AI services
• Familiarity with observability and operational tooling such as Application Insights, OpenTelemetry, Azure Monitor, or New Relic, or equivalent monitoring platforms
• Good collaboration and communication skills, with the ability to work effectively with engineers, architects, product owners, and platform teams
• Strong ownership mindset across the SDLC, including design, build, testing, deployment, support, and continuous improvement
• Experience building production Agentic systems (not just prototypes)
• Exposure to Model Context Protocol (MCP), agent-to-agent (A2A) interaction patterns, or similar approaches to context exchange and distributed agent communication.
