• Design and build agentic workflows that coordinate tools, services, data, and human approvals;
• Develop reusable patterns for agent orchestration, tool use, context management, memory, and multi-agent collaboration;
• Use agentic coding tools throughout the development lifecycle, including planning, implementation, testing, debugging, refactoring, code review, and documentation;
• Integrate agents into software development, testing, deployment, support, and operational workflows;
• Establish standards for agent evaluation, observability, reliability, security, and governance;
• Prototype new agentic capabilities and turn successful experiments into production systems;
• Build complete, usable products—not just demonstrations or isolated model integrations;
• Identify opportunities to improve engineering productivity and product delivery through agentic development;
• Mentor engineers and help shape an agentic-first technical strategy across the organization;
• Collaborate with product and engineering leaders to connect agentic capabilities to meaningful outcomes;
• Demonstrate the ability to use AI coding agents as productive engineering collaborators across an application codebase;
• Provide agents with clear context, constraints, architecture, acceptance criteria, and technical direction;
• Review, test, secure, and improve agent-generated code rather than accepting outputs without verification;
• Decompose complex application work into agent-ready tasks while maintaining architectural consistency and product intent;
• Create workflows in which agents can reason, select tools, call APIs, manage state, recover from failures, and escalate to people when appropriate;
• Design agentic applications around real user needs, including intuitive experiences, reliable workflows, permissions, audit trails, and meaningful error handling;
• Move from prototype to production by addressing performance, scalability, security, monitoring, evaluation, cost, and ongoing maintenance;
• Understand problems deeply, make appropriate tradeoffs, and deliver complete solutions that customers can depend on;
• 5+ years of experience in a software product development environment;
• Strong proficiency with Java and Spring Boot;
• Experience with JavaScript and React;
• Experience with relational databases;
• Hands-on experience building AI agents, tool-using LLM applications, or orchestrated workflows;
• Experience using agents to support coding, code review, testing, release management, or incident response;
• Senior-level experience building and operating production software systems;
• Experience with TypeScript, Python, RESTful APIs, and infrastructure on AWS;
• Experience with APIs, workflow engines, event-driven architectures, integrations, or distributed systems;
• Strong understanding of testing, observability, security, permissions, and failure recovery;
• Ability to turn ambiguous opportunities into practical, reliable technical solutions;
• Strong communication skills and the ability to influence engineering practices across a team;
• Experience building enterprise SaaS or multi-tenant systems;
• Leadership mindset and ability to drive changes across different teams;
• Upper-intermediate English level;
• Experience with multi-agent systems, RAG, vector search, agent evaluation, or human-in-the-loop workflows;
• Familiarity with higher education technology and its privacy and compliance requirements;
• Experience leading technical transformation or introducing new engineering practices;
• Professional growth: Accelerate your professional journey with mentorship, TechTalks, and personalized growth roadmaps;
• Competitive compensation: We match your skills and contributions with USD-based compensation and budgets for education, fitness, and team activities;
• A selection of exciting projects: Work with Fortune 500 enterprises and leading product brands using modern solutions;
• Flextime: Flexible schedule with remote and office options for work-life balance;
• Short online form to confirm basic requirements
• 30–60 minute skills assessment
• 5-minute introduction video
• Technical interview with our engineering team (scheduled at your convenience)
• Final interview with your future teammates
