About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Architect Agentic Workflows: Design and implement autonomous agents capable of handling multi-step reasoning, tool-calling, and error recovery.
Operational Discovery: Embed with logistics and support teams to identify high-impact opportunities for agentic intervention.
End-to-End Ownership: Own the entire agent lifecycle: Discovery → Agent Architecture → Prompt Engineering/Fine-tuning → Hardening → Production Deployment.
Build for Reliability: Develop robust guardrails, evaluation frameworks, and logging systems to ensure agents perform predictably in a high-stakes supply chain environment.
Contribute to the "Agent Hub": Document and publish reusable agent modules and toolsets to accelerate AI enablement across the entire organization.
Rapid Iteration: Bridge the gap between "cool demo" and "production tool" by shipping small, gathering feedback from domain experts, and iterating fast.

Requirements

What you’ll need

1–3 years of software engineering experience (or a standout portfolio of agentic projects) with strong proficiency in Python and .NET.
Deep understanding of modern agent architectures (e.g., ReAct, Plan-and-Execute) and orchestration frameworks (e.g., LangGraph, CrewAI, or Semantic Kernel).
Experience building retrieval pipelines (RAG), working with vector databases, and designing clean APIs that agents can easily consume.
Hands-on experience with LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic) and a proven ability to translate raw model outputs into structured, deterministic actions.
Ability to build the lightweight dashboards and interfaces (Vue.js/React) necessary for humans to interact with and monitor your agents.
You think like a founder, thrive in ambiguity, and are excited to challenge assumptions to deliver impactful solutions.
