Job Description:
As an Applied AI Developer on the Enterprise AI team, you'll evaluate where AI fits, build the tools and platforms that make it practical, and enable teams across the company to adopt modern AI development patterns including LLM orchestration, agentic workflows, and model governance on Google Gemini Enterprise. You'll design and ship Custom Agents using the Agent Development Kit (ADK), register them in the Agent & Tool Registry, wire them to enterprise systems via BYO and vendor-managed MCP servers, and enforce Agent Identity, Security, and Observability end to end. You stay hands-on and outcomes-oriented: prototyping, evaluating emerging AI technologies, and shipping solutions that make the organization measurably more efficient.
Required qualifications to be successful in this role:
12+ years of professional software engineering, with at least 2 years focused on applied AI in production systems.
Proficient in Python and/or Go; comfortable reading and writing in the other.
Proven experience building and scaling multi-agent or agent-driven systems in production real-world operational ownership, not just simple LLM workflows.
Hands-on experience with Google Gemini Enterprise and the Agent Development Kit (ADK), or comparable enterprise agent platforms, including agent runtime, agent/tool registration, identity, and observability.
Hands-on experience with modern agent ecosystems, including frameworks (e.g., Google ADK, LangGraph, Mastra, Claude Agent SDK), observability and evals tooling (e.g., Agent Observability, Langfuse, LangSmith, Braintrust), MCP implementations, and leading AI SDKs across a multi-model / BYOLLM environment (e.g., Gemini/Vertex AI, Anthropic (Claude), OpenAI, LLAMA).
Good understanding of cloud-native environments, with Google Cloud (Google Cloud Platform) and Vertex AI strongly preferred (and/or AWS) compute, storage, networking, and managed AI services.
Experience designing and integrating with enterprise APIs (REST, GraphQL) including authentication and authorization patterns (OAuth2, SAML, API keys, RBAC), and connecting agents to enterprise data sources across Google Workspace and Microsoft 365. Comfortable working with backend databases (SQL and NoSQL) writing queries, understanding data models, and building data access layers that enforce role-based access control aligned with Agent Identity and Agent Security.
Nice to Have
Direct experience deploying agents on Google Gemini Enterprise / Agentic Studio Platform (Custom Agents, Search UX, business apps) in production.
Experience with AI evaluation tooling (Agent Observability, Langfuse, LangSmith, Braintrust, or custom eval frameworks).
