AI Engineer

About the Position

We are seeking an AI Engineer with 5+ years of experience to design and ship AI-native products, from agentic workflow design through production operation. This is a hands-on engineering role for someone who can own a system end to end and bring real production discipline to agentic AI work.

Responsibilities

• Design and ship AI-native products from agentic workflow design through production operation.
• Own a system end to end and bring production discipline to agentic AI work.
• Decompose tasks into steps an agent can complete reliably.
• Decide what belongs in the model versus deterministic code.
• Choose between a single agent, a graph, and a plain pipeline.
• Design agents that fail safely with no duplicated side effects, hard limits on steps and spend, confirmation before irreversible actions, and validation between steps.
• Measure agent quality against a repeatable set of test cases and trace every step of a run to find where it went wrong.
• Fluency in AI-assisted development with disciplined review of generated code.
• Ownership of the practices that make rapid delivery safe: automated tests, type safety, CI gates, small reviewable pull requests, and a clear definition of done.
• Visible influence on team quality through code review, technical conventions, and mentoring.

Requirements

• 5+ years of experience delivering production software end to end: backend, API, frontend, deployment, and operations.
• Depth in at least one ecosystem (.NET, TypeScript, Python, or JVM) and a track record of becoming productive in another.
• Proven design of agentic workflows.
• Practical command of the building blocks: tool and function calling, MCP-based integrations, orchestration frameworks (LangGraph, Semantic Kernel, Microsoft Agent Framework, or equivalent), state and memory across steps, and retrieval where it earns its place.
• Fluency in AI-assisted development with disciplined review of generated code.

Education

A Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field would be of great value, but if you’re passionate and have the experience that backs up your abilities, for us, talent outweighs degree every time.

We Offer

• Opportunity to work with people who are at the top of their field.
• Career growth.
• Collaborative learning environment.
• Working in teams with global IT experts.
• Working on enterprise-level applications.
• Great culture and environment.
• Competitive remuneration package. We reward excellence.
• Professional training.
