Job summary

Accenture is seeking an AI Developer (Agentic/Applied) to design, build, and deploy production-grade agentic AI systems across the enterprise tech stack. You will collaborate with client teams, lead technical design sessions, and create reusable patterns and accelerators that scale beyond individual engagements.

This role requires deep experience in multi-agent orchestration, RAG pipelines, and LLM integration with major providers, leveraging LangSmith or comparable observability tooling.

Qualifications

• 7+ years of software development experience in production environments.
• Minimum of 1 year designing and deploying agentic AI solutions in production.
• Experience with agentic orchestration frameworks and LLM APIs in production.
• Experience building and operating RAG pipelines and context design.
• Experience implementing LLM Ops practices and observability tooling.
• Experience with cloud-native systems like Kubernetes, Docker, CI/CD.
• Bachelor’s degree in a related field and English proficiency for multinational teams.

Responsibilities

• Design and build production-grade agentic systems end-to-end, including multi-agent orchestration and observability.
• Own RAG pipelines: embeddings, vector search, and context window tuning.
• Integrate across OpenAI, Anthropic, Vertex AI providers with cost/latency controls.
• Implement LLM Ops: eval harnesses, prompt versioning, and monitoring tools.
• Collaborate with client teams to prototype, design, and deploy agentic solutions.
• Develop reusable patterns and playbooks to accelerate future engagements.
• Define metrics for accuracy, latency, safety, and cost; present business-focused findings.

Job description

Role Description

You build the systems that actually make AI work in enterprise environments, not demos, not prototypes that stall after a pilot, but production agentic architectures running inside real client organizations. The difference between an AI Developer and what we are looking for is straightforward: you have shipped a multi-agent system in production, you have owned the eval harness, and you know what happens when your agent fails at 2am because you have lived it.

As an AI Developer (Agentic/Applied), you will design, build, and deploy production-grade agentic AI systems across the full enterprise technology stack. You will work directly with client development teams, lead technical design sessions, and build reusable patterns and accelerators that scale beyond individual engagements.

This role sits at the heart of the AI development talent market — demand is growing faster than supply and will continue to do so. We offer what no single product company can: breadth across every industry, every enterprise technology stack, and every level of organizational complexity, combined with vendor fellowship access inside Anthropic, OpenAI, Microsoft, and Google technical teams and a direct pathway to the Forward Deployed Developer program.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and build production-grade agentic systems end-to-end: multi-agent orchestration, RAG pipelines, policy-based routing, tool invocation, memory management, and lifecycle observability


• Build and own RAG pipelines: embeddings, chunking strategy, vector search, context window design and tuning against real quality targets


• Integrate and abstract across multiple LLM providers — OpenAI, Anthropic, Vertex AI, and open-source models — with fallback routing, token, cost, and latency management


• Implement LLM Ops in production: eval harnesses with real quality metrics, prompt versioning, observability tooling (LangSmith, Braintrust, or equivalent), cost and safety monitoring


• Embed directly with client development teams to design, prototype, and deploy agentic solutions — workshops, proofs of concept, code-with sessions, and architecture walkthroughs


• Build reusable patterns, accelerators, and playbooks that scale beyond the individual client engagement and enable the next one to start faster


• Define and use metrics to measure agent accuracy, latency, safety, and cost-effectiveness; present findings and recommendations to client stakeholders in business terms

Basic Qualifications

Required qualifications

• 7+ years of software development experience in production environments


• Minimum of 1 year of experience designing and deploying agentic AI solutions in production environments


• Experience with agentic orchestration frameworks, including LangGraph, CrewAI, AutoGen, or equivalent


• Experience integrating and calling LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, Vertex AI) in production systems, including provider abstraction, token management, and cost/latency optimization


• Experience building and operating RAG pipelines, including embeddings, chunking strategy, vector search, and context design


• Experience implementing LLM Ops practices, including eval harness design, prompt versioning, and observability tooling


• Experience with cloud-native systems, including Kubernetes, Docker, microservices, serverless architectures, CI/CD, and infrastructure as code (Terraform or Helm)


• Proficiency in Python; experience with Java or equivalent backend language acceptable


• Experience debugging and monitoring production systems


• Experience deploying multiple production agentic AI systems


• Experience defining or standardizing RAG, LLM integration, or LLM Ops practices across projects


• Experience working directly with client development teams in collaborative development environments


• Experience building reusable frameworks, accelerators, or delivery playbooks


• Experience defining and tracking AI system performance metrics such as accuracy, latency, safety, and cost


• Bachelor’s degree or college diploma in a related field.


• English is required for this position as this role will be aligned to multi-national teams where English is the common language across our North America Market. Due to the significant high volume of interactions with these English-speaking multi-national teams, which is inherent to this position, it is not possible to reorganize the company's activities to avoid this requirement.
