• Evaluate and benchmark models for latency, accuracy, cost, and domain-specific performance

• Build scalable Python backend services (FastAPI) that serve AI agent workflows to production applications at enterprise scale

• Design and implement caching, rate limiting, persistent agent state, and conversation memory strategies

• Develop event-driven microservices and real-time streaming for AI agent interactions

• Develop APIs and integration layers that connect AI agents with enterprise data sources, tools, and external services

• Implement distributed task processing (Celery) and event-driven autoscaling (KEDA) for production AI workloads

• Stay current with the rapidly evolving Agentic AI landscape and evaluate emerging frameworks, models, and techniques

• Lead proof-of-concept development for new AI capabilities, moving successful experiments to production

• Mentor engineers on AI engineering best practices, prompt engineering, and agent design patterns

• Contribute to technical documentation, architecture decision records, and AI solution design specifications

• Champion the adoption of AI-powered development tools (Cursor AI, GitHub Copilot) across engineering teams

• Strong proficiency in Python with hands-on experience building production AI applications

• Demonstrated experience with LangGraph or similar agentic AI frameworks (LangChain, CrewAI, AutoGen) for production systems

• Hands-on experience with LLM API integration (OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, Anthropic) and prompt engineering

• Experience designing and implementing RAG systems including embedding models, vector databases, and retrieval strategies

• Solid understanding of multi-agent system design, agent orchestration, persistent state management, and memory patterns

• Experience with Python web frameworks (FastAPI) and distributed task processing (Celery) for production APIs

• Experience with event-driven microservices (Dapr) and real-time streaming patterns (SSE)

• Proficiency with AI-powered development tools (Cursor AI, GitHub Copilot, or similar) for AI-augmented software development across the SDLC

• Proficiency with Git, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud platforms (preferably Azure)

• Experience with vector databases (Qdrant, Pinecone, PgVector, ChromaDB)

• Experience with Databricks Genie or similar natural language to data query platforms

• Experience with AWS Bedrock AgentCore for managed agent runtime and multi-cloud agent deployment

• Experience with multi-tenant architecture patterns and enterprise-scale AI systems

• Experience with containerization (Docker, Kubernetes) and event-driven autoscaling (KEDA)

• Understanding of AI safety, responsible AI principles, and enterprise governance requirements

• Primary Framework: LangGraph (multi-agent orchestration with persistent state)

• Additional Frameworks: LangChain, CrewAI, AutoGen

• LLM Providers: OpenAI (GPT-5.x), Azure OpenAI, Anthropic (Claude), enterprise LLM services

• Techniques: RAG, prompt engineering, chain-of-thought, function calling, structured outputs

• Data Intelligence: Databricks Genie (natural language to SQL)

• Vector Databases: Qdrant, Pinecone, Weaviate, ChromaDB

• Multi-Cloud: AWS Bedrock AgentCore (managed agent runtime)
