Position Summary
We are seeking a Senior AI Engineer, Agentic Systems to design, build, and operate production-grade agentic AI solutions for enterprise-scale use cases. This role requires hands-on experience shipping AI systems into production, operating them reliably, debugging real-world failure modes, and exposing enterprise capabilities as tools or skills for LLM-powered agents. The ideal candidate combines strong Python engineering, practical agent orchestration experience, and the ability to partner with business stakeholders to own use cases from concept through production delivery.
Required Qualifications
· 7+ years of software engineering experience, with demonstrated experience building and shipping production systems.
· Hands-on production experience with agentic AI or GenAI applications, including deployment, monitoring, debugging, and operating agents at scale.
· Strong Python engineering skills, with the ability to work effectively in production AI and agentic system environments.
· Java experience or willingness to work daily within a Java service layer, especially where enterprise systems require integration with existing backend services.
· Experience with agent frameworks and orchestration technologies, including LangChain and/or LangGraph.
· Familiarity with production infrastructure for AI systems, including Kubernetes-based deployment environments.
· Ability to explain shipped system architecture and failure modes, including what was deployed, how it was monitored, where it failed, and how issues were resolved.
· Comfort working in a senior contract delivery model where the expectation is faster delivery and limited ramp-up investment.
Preferred Qualifications
· Experience with LangGraph as a production orchestration layer.
· Experience with vLLM or comparable model-serving infrastructure.
· Experience in regulated-industry or financial-services technology environments, especially where enterprise scale and production-path stakes are important.
· Experience working with business stakeholders to deliver end-to-end AI use cases, not only platform or prototype work.
· Ability to operate in an onsite or hybrid delivery model, especially in a market such as NYC where the attachment notes a deeper finance-AI contractor pool.
