Key skills for this role
Own the design and delivery of features and small services end to end—agents, copilots, and platform components—with limited guidance.
Build agentic systems properly: orchestration, tool use, retrieval, memory and state, and the evaluations that keep them honest as models and prompts change.
Define the evaluations, regression tests, and observability for what you ship, and take part in on-call and incident response for systems whose output is not deterministic.
Contribute to the internal AI platform—agent runtimes, model access and routing, tool interfaces built on open standards such as the Model Context Protocol, and developer tooling—following the paved paths our architect sets, and improving them when they get in your way.
Partner directly with business stakeholders to scope problems and turn them into well-built, measurable solutions. Understand the workflow before you design for it.
Mentor early-career engineers through code review, pairing, and design feedback, and hold the quality bar on the work around you.
You consistently ship well-designed features and services that get adopted in production, with quality, safety, and evaluation coverage you can point to.
You need little guidance to take a scoped but ambiguous problem all the way to instrumented, working software.
Early-career engineers around you get better faster because of your reviews and mentorship.
Engineering Depth: Roughly 4+ years of software engineering experience, with a track record of owning and shipping features or services in production—not just contributing to them.
Applied AI Experience: Hands-on experience building LLM-powered applications—retrieval-augmented generation, agents and tool use, prompt design—and a working understanding of evaluation and LLMOps practice: prompt and agent versioning, regression testing, and observability for non-deterministic outputs.

Evaluation Instinct: You reach for a golden dataset before you reach for a prompt tweak, and you can tell the difference between an agent that works and an agent that demoed well.
Clear Communication: You explain technical trade-offs to engineers and to non-engineering stakeholders, and you collaborate well across time zones.
Integrating with enterprise systems—HRIS, Financial systems, GTM Systems, or similar—including their data models and permissioning.
