• Design, build, test, and deploy AI agents and intelligent systems for modern, cloud-based, n-tier architectures.
• Partner with business stakeholders to develop agent-driven workflows that automate complex processes and deliver actionable insights.
• Promote engineering excellence by applying best practices in AI development, continuous integration, and code quality.
• Contribute to projects focused on agent orchestration, prompt engineering, and real-time, data-driven automation.
• Manage technical debt and drive ongoing improvements in AI platforms and infrastructure.
• Proactively identify opportunities to leverage AI agents for increased business value and operational efficiency.
• Serve as a domain expert throughout the software lifecycle (coding, testing, deployment), leading significant components of development projects.
• Help develop and promote standard methodologies within your group.
• Lead code reviews and actively provide feedback on designs and code.
• Take responsibility for technical debt in your own work.
• Lead small project teams as needed.
• Tackle complex problems systematically and make tactical versus strategic trade-offs.
• Adapt solutions as new information or ideas emerge.
• Mentor junior team members, providing support and building their confidence.
• Support colleagues with suggestions to improve practices and processes.

Qualifications

Required:

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a related field (or equivalent education and experience), with at least 5 years of progressive experience.

• In-depth expertise in your discipline and working knowledge of related fields.
• Continuously stay up-to-date with emerging technologies.
• Proficient in multiple programming languages and comfortable switching between them.
• Demonstrate commitment to quality through unit, integration, and acceptance testing during feature development.
• Debug large components with limited assistance and help other engineers as needed.
