AI Engineer

Job description
About the role
You will construct agentic AI architecture, leveraging large language models to orchestrate planning, execution, and tool interactions with minimal supervision. Working within a compact engineering team, you will build the core foundational infrastructure, spanning microservices, integration protocols, state management, tracing, and evaluation harnesses, ensuring systems are production‑ready, reliable, and scalable.
Key responsibilities
- Architect and maintain agent infrastructure, including orchestration logic, session handling, state management, and reliable backend service interfaces.
- Design robust tool integrations and Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers with precise boundary definitions and comprehensive error‑recovery handlers.
- Implement end‑to‑end tracing and observability for model calls, retrieval, and tool executions following OpenTelemetry GenAI standards.
- Construct evaluation suites, benchmarks, and regression tests to validate model iterations and capture production edge cases.
- Perform deep‑dive root‑cause analysis on runtime failures, loops, context degradation, or hallucinated outputs to improve system resiliency.
- Enforce runtime guardrails, cost thresholds, RBAC permissions, output validation schemas, and human‑in‑the‑loop validation triggers.
- Monitor emerging AI research and architectural patterns, sharing technical insights across the engineering organization.
Required profile
- Deep software engineering expertise in a modern programming language with strong algorithmic depth.
- Solid computer‑science foundations in data structures, algorithms, memory allocation, and concurrent execution patterns.
- Practical experience with backend infrastructure: REST/gRPC APIs, relational and non‑relational databases, caching tiers, message queues, and distributed‑system resilience.
- Proficiency with Git, automated testing frameworks, CI/CD pipelines, and clean, maintainable code.
- Comprehensive mental model of LLM mechanics, including context windows, tokenization, function‑calling protocols, non‑deterministic behavior, and hallucination management.
- Proven track record delivering full‑lifecycle technical projects in production, open‑source, or side initiatives.
- Methodical debugging skills and strong technical documentation abilities.
