Qualifications

• 5+ years of applied software engineering experience.
• Experience delivering system design, application development, testing, and operational stability.
• Advanced proficiency in Python; strong object-oriented programming fundamentals.
• Proven experience building and deploying LLM-based or agentic AI systems in production.
• Deep understanding of RAG architecture, vector databases, and AI agent frameworks (e.g., LangGraph, MCP).
• Proficiency in automation and continuous delivery methods (CI/CD, DevSecOps).
• Proficient across all phases of the Software Development Life Cycle; agile methodologies.

Responsabilités

• Designs and builds production-grade agentic AI systems including LLM orchestration layers, RAG pipelines, vector databases, and MCP-based tool integrations.
• Develops and reviews secure, high-quality code and debugs solutions written by team members or generated by AI models.
• Architects multi-agent and single-agent setups, authors skill files, and writes technical RFCs for new AI capabilities.
• Contributes to cloud-native deployments (AWS ECS), CI/CD pipelines, and infrastructure modernisation.
• Builds and iterates on agentic patterns — multi-hop agents, vector search, automated code generation — from POC through UAT to full production rollout.
• Translates regulatory operations and business requirements into precise technical designs and delivers against quarterly commitments.
