We are

A forward-thinking services company at the forefront of AI-native innovation. We partner with enterprise clients to create next-generation, agent-powered workflows engineered to scale in real-world settings. Our engineers embed deeply with customers, moving projects beyond experimentation into operational reality.

You are An AI Native Engineer with a strong foundation in building cloud-native solutions and hands-on experience designing and deploying agentic systems, especially for enterprise environments. You´re a critical thinker who thrives in ambiguity, delivering concrete results by designing, building, and running AI agents that augment workflows and scale across modern infrastructure.

You´ll shape how enterprises adopt AI-native engineering - either by leading complex agentic solutions and developing engineering talent, or by owning critical technical areas end-to-end as a senior IC The Work

You´ll partner directly with client stakeholders - acting as both technologist and trusted advisor. You´ll partner with stakeholders to define use cases, rapidly prototype, and deploy agentic workflows that are robust, secure, and operational in complex enterprise domains. Often, these will be net-new platforms and systems that need to be stitched together in our clients´ environments alongside our ecosystem partners.

Agent Architecture & Engineering

- Design and build enterprise-ready AI agents incorporating retrieval, orchestration, policy-based routing, tool invocation, evaluation harnesses, and lifecycle observability.
- Implement resilient, testable, and maintainable agentic workflows that can be iterated on quickly.

AI Platform Integration
- Develop and/or extend abstraction layers across AI providers (Anthropic, Google, OpenAI, etc.) to enable seamless integration and multi-provider enablement.
- Contribute to shared libraries, SDKs, and patterns that can be reused across clients.

Cloud-Native Engineering
- Leverage containerization (Kubernetes, Docker), microservices, serverless, event-driven architectures, CI/CD, and observability stacks to deliver scalable AI-native systems.
- Own deployment, monitoring,



and troubleshooting for your services in production.

Domain-Specific Workflows
- Tailor and deploy agentic applications across verticals (e.g., finance, healthcare, retail), adapting to domain-specific processes and constraints.
- Work closely with client SMEs to translate business workflows into agentic solutions.

Client Engagement
- Participate in and/or lead design workshops, POCs, and code-with sessions to shape data-driven agent workflows with stakeholders, fostering trust and adoption.
- Communicate trade-offs, risks, and recommendations clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences.

Measure & Improve
- Define and use key metrics, test harnesses, and evaluation plans to measure agent accuracy, latency, safety, and cost effectiveness.
- Iterate rapidly based on data, feedback, and changing requirements.

Knowledge Sharing
- Craft reusable patterns, documentation, and best practices that influence internal assets and client roadmaps.
- Contribute to internal communities of practice around AI-native and agentic engineering.

Travel may be required for this role. The amount of travel will vary from 25% to 75% depending on business need and client requirements.

Job Qualifications

Key Responsibilities

- Architect and govern production-grade agentic systems at enterprise scale: multi-agent orchestration across complex environments, RAG pipelines, policy-based routing, memory management, and programme-level lifecycle observability
- Define RAG pipeline standards across engagements: establish chunking and embedding strategies, set quality benchmarks, and ensure metric-backed tradeoff decisions are documented and transferable
- Set multi-LLM integration standards: vendor-agnostic architecture by default,



fallback routing and cost governance as standard design practice across providers including OpenAI, Anthropic, Vertex AI, and open-source models
- Own LLMOps at programme scale: eval strategy, prompt governance, observability tooling standards, safety monitoring and cost controls across multiple concurrent systems
- Lead client engineering engagements at senior level - facilitate architecture design sessions, lead proof-of-concept delivery, and drive alignment between client technology leadership and delivery teams
- Shape and publish reusable patterns, accelerators, and engineering standards that scale across the practice and reduce ramp-up time on new client engagements
- Own the measurement framework for agentic system quality: define accuracy, latency, safety, and cost metrics; present programme-level AI impact in business terms to senior client stakeholders

Basic Qualifications
- Strong software engineering experience in production environments
- Hands-on experience designing and deploying agentic AI solutions in a production environment - non-negotiable
- Demonstrated experience with agentic orchestration frameworks: LangGraph, CrewAI, AutoGen, or equivalent - at production depth, not tutorial level
- Direct experience calling LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, Vertex AI) in production code: provider abstraction, token management, latency and cost tradeoffs
- RAG pipeline ownership: embeddings, chunking strategy, vector databases, and context engineering
- LLMOps fundamentals: eval harness design, prompt versioning, and production observability
- Cloud-native engineering maturity: Kubernetes, Docker, microservices, serverless, CI/CD, and IaC (Terraform or Helm)
- Strong Python; Java or equivalent backend language acceptable; production debugging and observability experience
- Quality of experience is weighted over years, a candidate who has shipped three production agentic systems in four years is preferred over a generalist with passive AI exposure
- People lead responsibilities: experience managing, developing, and performance-managing a team of engineers; setting individual development plans and conducting career conversations
