Résumé du poste

Vytwo in Dallas/Austin seeks an AI Engineer to design and build foundational AI platform layers, delivering secure, scalable, reusable AI use cases. You will create POCs and production-ready patterns across MCP, orchestration, security, caching, and telemetry.

The ideal candidate has 5+ years in software engineering for distributed services, hands-on with LLMs, and strong skills in Java/Python/TypeScript/Go. Join a team advancing enterprise-grade AI capabilities.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of software engineering experience building distributed services.
• Hands-on with LLM apps, AI agents, RAG, or tool-calling workflows.
• Strong programming skills in Java, Python, TypeScript, or Go.
• Experience with APIs, service integration, async processing, and distributed systems.
• Knowledge of authentication, authorization, secrets management, and secure service communication.
• Observability experience: logs, metrics, traces, dashboards.
• Experience with cloud and containerized deployments (Kubernetes).
• Strong communication and collaboration to turn ideas into POCs.

Responsabilités

• Build POCs for MCP gateways and servers exposing tools and data.
• Design an orchestration layer for models, agents, tools, workflows, retries, and failures.
• Establish caching patterns to improve latency and protect data freshness.
• Implement agentic authentication and authorization with identity propagation and least privilege.
• Create telemetry for AI workflows: traces, metrics, logs, token usage and tool calls.
• Deliver reusable APIs, reference implementations, docs and standards.
• Partner with architecture, security, product and engineering to move POCs to production.

AI Engineer - AI Foundations and Platform Enablement –

Location: Dallas, TX and Austin, TX

Hire type: C2H and FTE

Salary: $60/hr / $120K on FTE

Role Summary

Design and build the foundational platform layers needed to deliver secure, scalable, reusable AI use cases. The role will develop proofs of concept and production-ready patterns across MCP, orchestration, security, caching, and telemetry.

Key Responsibilities

• Build POCs for MCP gateways and retail-domain MCP servers that securely expose enterprise tools and data.
• Design an orchestration layer for coordinating models, agents, tools, workflows, approvals, retries, and failures.
• Establish caching patterns that improve latency and cost while protecting data freshness and privacy.
• Implement agentic authentication and authorization, including identity propagation, delegated access, least privilege, and auditability.
• Create telemetry for AI workflows, including traces, metrics, logs, token usage, tool calls, latency, errors, and policy decisions.
• Deliver reusable APIs, reference implementations, documentation, and standards for application teams.
• Partner with architecture, security, product, and engineering teams to move POCs toward production.

Must Have

• 5+ years of software engineering experience building distributed services or platforms.
• Hands-on experience with LLM applications, AI agents, RAG, or tool-calling workflows.
• Strong programming skills in Java, Python, TypeScript, or Go.
• Experience with APIs, service integration, asynchronous processing, and distributed systems.
• Practical knowledge of authentication, authorization, secrets management, and secure service communication.
• Experience with observability, including structured logging, metrics, tracing, and operational dashboards.
• Experience with cloud and containerized deployments, such as Kubernetes.
• Strong communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to turn ambiguous ideas into working POCs.

Nice to Have

• Experience with Model Context Protocol, MCP gateways, MCP servers, or similar agent integration frameworks.
• Experience building orchestration or workflow platforms with durable execution, queues, event streams, or human-in-the-loop controls.

Benefits

• Health insurance
