About the Role
Deliver a six-month engagement building AI-powered workflows that put agentic engineering into practice. Turn business and operational problems into reliable, observable, and useful agentic systems. Utilize AI agents to produce code, tests, and documentation, directing and checking AI-generated work.
Responsibilities
- Map workflows with users and cross-disciplinary teams, and define clear outcomes for agentic solutions
- Design and build agentic systems: orchestration, tool use, retrieval and memory, human approval, failure recovery
- Integrate AI capabilities with the client's platforms through APIs, events, and data services
- Build reusable components and patterns for the client's team to reuse
- Build automated evaluations and tests covering task success, quality, accuracy, and safety
- Set up observability and tracing, and improve agent behaviour, latency, and cost
- Apply security, privacy, and content-rights controls, with human review built in
- Document decisions clearly enough for the client's permanent hire to pick up from
Requirements
- Strong software engineering with clear, maintainable, well-tested code
- Hands-on experience building applications with LLMs and agentic patterns, beyond prompt-only prototypes
- Experience integrating APIs, data services, and third-party platforms into reliable end-to-end products
- Experience designing automated evaluations and tests for non-deterministic AI systems, including quality, safety, and regression testing
- Familiarity with observability, tracing, and production monitoring for AI-powered applications
- Experience deploying and operating cloud-based services using modern CI/CD and software delivery practices
- Good understanding of application security, privacy, responsible AI, and safe handling of content and data
- Genuine day-to-day experience using agentic AI tools for your own engineering output, with a track record of directing and validating AI-generated code, tests, or documentation
- Comfortable owning ambiguity, with no client project manager directing your day-to-day
- Able to start Monday 28 September
