About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Design and ship agentic systems end-to-end — tool calling, sub-agent orchestration, memory, durable state, and failure recovery.
Build evaluation frameworks from the ground up — golden datasets, regression harnesses, and systematic approaches to measuring whether your AI systems actually work.
Own AI features from prototype to production: observable, maintainable, cost-aware.
Work with product and domain engineers to identify where AI has real leverage — and where it doesn't.
Contribute to how we build AI across the org: patterns, tooling, and standards that others build on.
Manage the operational economics of AI systems — latency, token cost, context efficiency — as first-class engineering concerns.

Requirements

What you’ll need

Demonstrated production experience with agentic systems: tool calling, multi-step orchestration, memory management, or RAG pipelines — with evidence (shipped product, open source, or portfolio).
You've built evaluation infrastructure, not just run evals — you know how to measure non-deterministic systems systematically.
Strong backend engineering in TypeScript/Node.js; comfortable with Python for AI tooling and evaluation work.
Hands-on with AWS serverless (Lambda, EventBridge, S3, API Gateway).
You operate with high autonomy — you move from ambiguous problem to shipped system without needing the path laid out for you.
Experience with reliability patterns: retries, idempotency, observability, failure-mode recovery.
Infrastructure as Code (CDK, Terraform, or similar).
