Job Description
About the Role:
We are looking for an Agentic AI Engineer to design, build, and deploy production-grade AI agents capable of executing complex, multi-step workflows through natural language interactions.
The role will focus on integrating LLMs, agent orchestration frameworks, MCP tools, AI coding agents, context/harness engineering, APIs, and enterprise systems to build intelligent assistants that can reason, use tools, execute actions, and validate results.
The ideal candidate has hands-on experience building agentic workflows beyond simple chatbots or PoCs, with strong software engineering skills and experience taking AI solutions into production.
Key Responsibilities:
- Agentic AI Development & Orchestration
- Design and develop LLM-powered autonomous and semi-autonomous agents capable of executing complex, multi-step workflows.
- Build agent workflows using frameworks such as LangGraph, LangChain, Semantic Kernel, AutoGen, or similar technologies.
- Implement planning, task decomposition, tool selection, execution, observation, retry, and validation loops.
- Develop agents that can interact with enterprise applications, APIs, databases, and developer tools through natural language.
- Context & Harness Engineering
- Design and implement context engineering strategies to provide agents with the right instructions, task context, application state, tools, and relevant information at the right time.
- Develop AI agent harnesses that manage agent state, tool access, permissions, execution workflows, guardrails, retries, and verification.
- Engineer repository and application context for AI coding agents such as Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, or similar platforms.
- Develop effective agent instructions, project context, coding guidelines, workflows, and automated verification mechanisms to improve agent reliability and developer productivity.
- Optimize context usage to reduce unnecessary token consumption, latency, and LLM costs.
- MCP & Tool Integration
- Design and develop Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers and tools to enable agents to interact with enterprise applications and services.
- Integrate agents with Git, GitHub/GitLab, Artifactory, Slack, databases, APIs, CI/CD platforms, and other enterprise tools.
- Build secure tool-calling mechanisms with appropriate authentication, authorization, permissions, and human approval workflows.
- Develop reusable tools that allow agents to perform actions rather than simply generate responses.
- LLM & Generative AI Engineering
- Integrate and orchestrate LLMs for reasoning, planning, content generation, code generation, and task execution.
- Work with commercial and open-source LLMs and select appropriate models based on quality, latency, cost, and task complexity.
- Implement prompt engineering and advanced context management strategies.
- Apply techniques such as structured outputs, function/tool calling, model routing, and model fallback strategies.
- Implement RAG where required, including document retrieval, embeddings, vector databases, reranking, and grounding.
- Agent Evaluation & Reliability
- Design evaluation frameworks to measure agent task completion, tool-call accuracy, response quality, hallucination, reliability, and business outcomes.
- Implement LLM-as-a-Judge and automated evaluation pipelines for agent and GenAI applications.
- Build regression testing and validation workflows for agent behavior.
- Implement guardrails, error handling, retry mechanisms, and human-in-the-loop controls for high-risk actions.
- Production Engineering & Deployment
- Develop production-grade AI services using Python and FastAPI or similar frameworks.
- Deploy and operate agentic applications in cloud and enterprise environments.
- Design scalable architectures supporting concurrent users, long-running agent workflows, and complex tool execution.
- Implement caching, model/inference optimization, asynchronous processing, parallel execution, and cost optimization strategies.
- Integrate AI applications with CI/CD, monitoring, logging, tracing, and observability platforms.
- Enterprise AI Solutions
- Translate complex business and product requirements into agentic AI solutions with measurable business impact.
- Work closely with product managers, software engineers, data scientists, architects, and business stakeholders.
- Build solutions that move beyond prototypes…
