What you will do

• Design, implement, and maintain scalable, secure agent-driven services using modern AI frameworks.
• Develop and enhance robust infrastructure and high-throughput APIs for core agent capabilities (memory, communication, skills, decision logic, security, workflow).
• Integrate agent capabilities with backend services, data stores, vector databases, search/retrieval systems, and external APIs.
• Collaborate with product managers, AI researchers, data engineers, and UX teams to translate high-level agent use cases into robust, production-ready software.
• Ensure reliability, monitoring, and observability for all agent components.
• Contribute to architectural design decisions and participate in rigorous code reviews.

Requirements

• 3+ years of professional software engineering experience, with strong proficiency in Python in production environments.
• Proficiency in native agentic coding using tools like Cursor or Claude Code.
• Demonstrated experience building distributed systems, microservices, or complex backend APIs that support AI/agent workflows.
• Solid expertise with systems that integrate AI models, agent frameworks (e.g., LangChain), vector databases, and large context reasoning services.
• Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure), containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), and operational engineering best practices.
• English: B2 required.

Nice to have

• Past work on AI agents that coordinate multi-step actions, reasoning, or autonomous decision-making loops.
• Contributions to open-source agent toolkits or SDKs.
• Experience with frontend technologies (React, TypeScript) for tooling around agent management interfaces.
