Requirements
Must:
- 2 years of experience in Software Engineering or ML Engineering, ideally with a specialised focus on building Generative AI products or agent-based systems.
- Strong proficiency in Python and solid software engineering fundamentals.
- Proven, hands-on experience building and deploying complex workflows using modern agentic frameworks (e.g., LangChain, LangGraph, CrewAI, AutoGen, or equivalent internal frameworks).
- Practical experience in connecting agents and products to Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems, understanding vector stores, chunking strategies, and retrieval performance.
- Experience working directly with model APIs (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, or internal endpoints) and managing model configuration.
- Familiarity with the production deployment lifecycle, including Git, CI/CD pipelines, containerisation (Docker), and consuming microservices via REST/gRPC.
- A strong passion for understanding end-user problems and designing AI solutions that are intuitive, reliable, and delightful to use.
- The ability to understand the business context and define the success of an agent not just technically, but by its measurable impact on key business metrics.
- Excellent analytical skills to debug complex, non-deterministic systems and iteratively drive towards predictable, high-quality output.
- Effective collaboration skills to work across a cross-functional squad (Product, UX, Backend) and ability to clearly communicate technical tradeoffs and capabilities.

Responsibilities
- Design, build, and deploy multi-step, autonomous AI agents and workflows using the standardised frameworks provided by the central GenAI Platform Team.
- Master the art of Prompt Engineering to define clear, deterministic, and self-correcting agent behaviour, optimising its reasoning, planning, and task execution for specific product use cases.
- Develop custom tools, APIs, and functions that allow the agent to interact with external enterprise systems (CRM, ERP, databases, etc.) to achieve real-world goals.
- Leverage and implement rigorous evaluation and testing pipelines from the GenAI platform to measure agent quality, reliability, factual accuracy, and alignment with user expectations.
- Dive deep into agent logs, process traces, and memory states to diagnose failure modes and rapidly iterate on agent design and prompts to improve outcomes.
- Work closely with the GenAI Platform Team to identify opportunities for leveraging platform features to meet product latency and cost targets.
- Collaborate closely with the Product Manager and UX Designer to translate high-level user needs and business KPIs into concrete agent behaviours and technical specifications.
- Act as the primary consumer of the internal GenAI Platform, providing critical feedback to the Platform Team on API usability, documentation, and missing capabilities.
- Own the agents deployment process, monitoring, and operational excellence, ensuring the product is secure, stable, and compliant using the governance guardrails established by the Platform Team.
