Job Description & Summary

We are looking for an experienced Agentic AI Developer to design, build, and deploy intelligent autonomous agent systems using Python. You will be responsible for architecting multi-agent workflows, integrating LLMs with real-world tools and data sources, and building the orchestration and reasoning layers that power self-directed AI pipelines. This role sits at the intersection of AI engineering, backend development, and system design.

Responsibilities:

  • Agent Design & Orchestration
    • Design and develop autonomous and semi-autonomous AI agents capable of multi-step reasoning, planning, and decision-making
    • Build multi-agent systems with defined roles, inter-agent communication, and collaborative task execution
    • Implement agent orchestration frameworks (LangGraph, AutoGen, CrewAI, or custom-built) for workflow coordination
    • Define and manage agent memory layers - short-term (context window), long-term (vector stores), and episodic memory
    • Develop tool-use and function-calling pipelines enabling agents to interact with APIs, databases, and external services
  • LLM Integration & Prompt Engineering
    • Integrate and fine-tune interactions with LLM providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Mistral, open-source models via HuggingFace)
    • Design robust prompt templates, system instructions, and chain-of-thought strategies for reliable agent behavior
    • Implement RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) pipelines connecting agents to structured and unstructured knowledge bases
    • Manage LLM output validation, structured output parsing, and fallback/retry logic
  • Backend Services & API Layer
    • Build FastAPI-based microservices to expose agent capabilities as REST/streaming APIs
    • Develop event-driven agent triggers using message queues (Redis Streams, Kafka, RabbitMQ)
    • Design agent state management and session persistence using PostgreSQL / Redis
    • Implement task queuing, scheduling, and async execution for long-running agent workflows
  • Tool & Data Integration
    • Build and register custom agent tools for file processing, web search, SQL querying, SFTP operations, and third-party API calls
    • Integrate agents with structured data sources (PostgreSQL, data lakes) and unstructured sources (PDFs, Excel, emails)
    • Connect agents to vector databases (Pinecone, Weaviate, pgvector, ChromaDB) for semantic retrieval
    • Enable agents to interact with external systems via MCP (Model Context Protocol) or custom tool registries
  • Guardrails, Safety & Reliability
    • Implement guardrails and output validators to ensure agent responses meet business and compliance requirements
    • Build human-in-the-loop (HITL) checkpoints for critical decision nodes within agent workflows
    • Design agent sandboxing and execution boundaries to prevent unintended actions
    • Develop comprehensive error handling, retry strategies, and graceful degradation patterns for agent failures
  • Observability & Evaluation
    • Instrument agents with end-to-end tracing (LangSmith, Arize, custom logging) across reasoning steps and tool calls
    • Build evaluation pipelines to measure agent accuracy, latency, tool-use correctness, and goal completion rates
    • Define and monitor KPIs for agent performance - task success rate, hallucination rate, escalation frequency
    • Maintain audit logs of agent decisions, tool invocations, and LLM interactions for debugging and
