NBCUniversal Advertising Products & Solutions (AP&S) is responsible for the product development and project management of NBCUniversal’s full advertising technology suite. Our Data Collaboration Group, a core part of AP&S, powers the full advertiser lifecycle across insights, measurement, onboarding, activation, and optimization. The Engineering & Operations team within the Data Collaboration Group builds the automation and platform capabilities behind these workflows. We are seeking a Senior Software Engineer, Automation Engineering to join the Engineering & Operations team. This role will build AI-enabled automation systems and production-grade software that support NBCUniversal’s data collaboration ecosystem.

Responsibilities

  • Design and build internal AI agents and automation workflows using technologies such as, Snowflake Cortex, LangChain, LangGraph, or similar frameworks, to support planning, tool use, retrieval, validation, and human-in-the-loop execution where appropriate.
  • Develop reusable tools, APIs, and components that engineers can compose into new agentic workflows.
  • Implement retrieval-augmented generation workflows, context management strategies, and prompt patterns that improve accuracy, reliability, latency, and cost efficiency.
  • Build evaluation harnesses, regression tests, and monitoring patterns for AI-agent behavior.
  • Define and track metrics such as task completion, groundedness, response accuracy, latency, cost, and failure rate.
  • Design guardrails and validation patterns to reduce hallucinations, unsafe outputs, and unreliable automation behavior.
  • Partner with engineering and operations teams to move AI workflows from prototype to production-ready systems.
  • Design, build, and maintain production-grade Python applications, libraries, and services.
  • Champion object-oriented design principles, including encapsulation, abstraction, inheritance/composition, reusable interfaces, and clean separation of concerns to improve maintainability and extensibility.
  • Champion software engineering best practices including modular design, automated testing, CI/CD, code reviews, observability, and documentation.
  • Create reusable engineering patterns that reduce bespoke development effort and improve consistency across partner engagements.
  • Collaborate with product, engineering, operations, and data platform teams to translate repeatable business needs into scalable technical solutions.
  • Build reusable Python libraries that support clean room capabilities across first-party audience workflows and core measurement use cases, including audience onboarding, ingestion, indexing, activation, campaign and impression delivery analysis, reach and frequency, attribution, and incrementality.
  • Abstract complex analytical and data collaboration workflows into repeatable, self-service components for internal teams and external partners.
  • Enable configurable feature deployment so new audience and measurement capabilities can be delivered quickly and consistently across partners.
  • Mentor engineers through code reviews, technical design discussions, and operational best practices.
  • Help establish engineering standards for AI-assisted workflows, agentic system design, reusable libraries, and production automation.
  • Promote a culture of reliability, maintainability, and continuous improvement.

Requirements
