Work you'll do
As an Agentic AI Senior FDE, you will design, build, and operationalize LLM-powered systems that can reason, plan, retrieve information, use tools, and execute multi-step workflows reliably. You will work on the "thinking layer" of AI systems: agent architecture, tool orchestration, memory and context management, retrieval pipelines, evaluation, and observability. You will help shape how complex domain knowledge is transformed into usable AI behavior, with a high bar for precision, traceability, and maintainability. Additional responsibilities include:
Client Engagement
Embed with clients to identify business needs and translate high-value GenAI use cases into solutions. Partner with leaders, product owners, architects, and engineers to align priorities and delivery. Lead working sessions to shape solutions and drive client outcomes. Prototype and deliver working AI solutions using industry expertise and emerging capabilities. Contribute independently within an FDE pod while mentoring newer team members.
Solution Engineering
Build AI-enabled solutions, agentic platforms, and workflows across enterprise AI platforms. Develop scalable AI engineering patterns, tool-use approaches, and human-in-the-loop controls. Apply architecture decisions that balance quality, safety, latency, cost, and model risk. Deliver production-quality code using strong practices in testing, CI/CD, logging, versioning, and documentation. Design extensible functionality, support sprint sizing, and align solutions with senior team members. Co
