Long term Contract

We are seeking an experienced Backend/Agent Engineer to join our team, specializing in designing, developing, and maintaining robust backend systems for AI-driven agent platforms. In this role, you will focus on architecting scalable, reliable backend services and integrating advanced AI agents using Python and frameworks like LangGraph and MCP (Model Composition/Coordination Platform). You will work closely with multidisciplinary teams to deliver intelligent, context-aware solutions that power real-world applications.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Backend System Development:
    Architect, implement, and maintain scalable backend services and APIs using Python (FastAPI, Flask, Django) to support AI agent operations.
  • AI Agent & MCP Integration:
    Develop, deploy, and orchestrate autonomous AI agents, and leverage MCP to coordinate multiple AI models and agent workflows, ensuring seamless interoperability and orchestration.
  • Agent Orchestration & Workflow:
    Utilize frameworks like LangGraph and MCP to design, compose, and manage complex agent workflows, multi-agent coordination, and state management.
  • System Integration:
    Integrate external data sources, third-party APIs, vector databases, and machine learning models to enhance agent capabilities.
  • Performance & Reliability:
    Optimize system performance, ensure high availability, and implement robust logging, monitoring, and error-handling solutions.
  • Collaboration:
    Work cross-functionally with front-end developers, data scientists, and product teams to translate requirements into technical designs and deliverables.
  • Security & Compliance:
    Implement best practices for data security, privacy, and compliance in all backend operations.

Required Skills & Qualifications:

  • Strong experience with backend Python frameworks (FastAPI, Flask, Django), RESTful API design, and database management (SQL/NoSQL).
  • Proven expertise in integrating and orchestrating AI agents, LLMs, or multi-agent systems in production environments.
  • Hands-on experience with MCP (Model Composition/Coordination Platform) for coordinating and managing AI models and agent workflows.
  • Familiarity with agent workflow orchestration tools such as LangGraph.
  • Experience with containerization (Docker), CI/CD pipelines, and cloud infrastructure (AWS, Google Cloud Platform, Azure).
  • Knowledge of vector databases, data pipelines, and scalable distributed systems.
  • Excellent problem-solving abilities, attention to detail, and communication skills.

Preferred:

  • Background in designing backend architectures for AI or data-intensive applications.
  • Experience with knowledge graphs, RAG pipelines, or advanced agent coordination.
  • Open-source contributions or experience with modern agent/LLM frameworks, MCP, or similar platforms.

Thanks & Regards,
