Job Level
About the role
- play a critical role in designing, building, and scaling AI-driven, agentic applications
- work on intelligent chatbots, agentic workflows, and automation platforms
- design and deploy scalable, production-grade systems using Python/Java
- contribute to reusable foundational code, architectural diagrams, and guide decisions around product and tool selection
- serve as a core member of a balanced team, mentoring junior engineers
Requirements
- 5-8 years of relevant work experience
- deep understanding of warehousing and logistics
- strong understanding of LLMs, multimodal models, and transformer architectures
- experience with fine-tuning/adapting models (LoRA, RAG, prompt optimization, RLHF basics)
- ability to design and implement agentic architectures (single- and multi-agent systems)
- hands-on experience with agent frameworks (e.g., LangGraph, AutoGen, CrewAI, Semantic Kernel, Swarm)
- skill in defining agent roles, capabilities, tools, and memory patterns
- experience building autonomous workflows: task decomposition, planning, and self-correction loops
- strong prompt engineering skills (system prompts, dynamic context building, tool-calling protocols)
- knowledge of grounding strategies to reduce hallucinations and enforce business rules
- proficiency in Python and common AI/ML libraries (PyTorch, TensorFlow, OpenAI/Anthropic SDKs)
- experience building and consuming APIs and microservices for agent tool use

- experience with RAG pipelines (embeddings, vector stores, retrieval optimization)
- knowledge of data engineering fundamentals (ETL, data quality, schema design for knowledge bases)
- deep experience with cloud platforms (Azure, AWS, GCP) for AI workloads
- proficiency in cloud-native deployment architectures (Kubernetes, service meshes, managed inference endpoints)
- experience defining and running evaluations for agents (task success, reliability, safety metrics)
- understanding of security, privacy, and responsible AI principles (PII handling, access controls, auditability)
- strong debugging and troubleshooting skills for complex, tool-using agent workflows
- ability to collaborate with product, data, and engineering teams to translate business needs into agentic solutions
- clear communication skills for documenting agent designs, assumptions, limitations, and guardrails
