Agentic AI API Developer (Agentic Commerce & 3rdParty Integrations)

Agentic AI API Developer (Agentic Commerce & 3rdParty Integrations)

Cincinnati Onsite

Role Summary

We are seeking an Agentic AI API Developer to build and integrate enterprise-grade APIs and orchestration servicesthat enable agentic commerce experiences and thirdparty commerce integrations. You will work in a fast-moving pod model (2pizza team) and deliver production-ready integration capabilities that accelerate partner POCs and real-world deployments.

Key Responsibilities

API Integration Development (Core)

• Design and implement scalable, secure RESTful APIs for commerce and agentic workflows (external/partner-ready).
• Build API orchestration/composition layers that integrate multiple downstream services/APIs into cohesive business flows.
• Apply an API-first development approach and support API lifecycle practices needed for broad consumption.
• Implement and validate authentication/authorization patterns appropriate for enterprise + third-party use.

Agentic Enablement & MCP

• Develop or integrate MCP server interfaces (or equivalent shim layers) that front APIs to enable agentic interactions.
• Support agentic workflow integration (tool invocation patterns, orchestration flows, and integration contracts).

ThirdParty / Partner Integrations

• Implement and operationalize 3rd-party integrations (e.g., large partner ecosystems) using robust integration patterns (avoid brittle point-to-point).
• Contribute to rapid partner POCs and transitions from POC production with quality and repeatability.

Quality Engineering for Agentic/AI-Assisted Development

• Produce production-grade code, including AI-assisted development practices where applicable.
• Implement testing strategies suitable for AI/agentic variability (i.e., testing beyond purely deterministic outputs).

Collaboration & Delivery

• Work embedded with incubation/acceleration teams initially and then help evolve pod delivery as scope becomes clear.
• Operate effectively in a pod model with fast onboarding, iterative staffing, and rapid delivery cycles.

Required Skills & Experience

Must Have

• Strong backend engineering experience building RESTful APIs and integration services at scale.
• Proven expertise in authentication and authorization for API access.
• Hands-on experience with API orchestration/composition patterns across multiple services.
• Experience delivering production-ready software (not just prototypes).
• MCP Server experience (explicitly expected for this pod context).
• Working knowledge of agentic workflows and how agents consume tools/APIs.

Nice to Have (Highly Relevant)

• Experience integrating with major partner ecosystems and third-party commerce platforms.
• Familiarity with Google s UCP / universal commerce platform concepts and/or analogous partner protocols mentioned in the pod ask.
• Experience with AI-assisted engineering tools in enterprise environments (e.g., Copilot-style tooling referenced in discussion).
