Job summary

Quantum World Technologies Inc. is seeking an AI Lead – Delivery & Engineering to own end-to-end AI programs, from architecture to production, for global clients.

You will mentor engineers, design multi-agent systems, and drive deployment, monitoring, and continuous improvement across cloud environments.

The role requires hands-on coding, client workshops, and the ability to translate complex technical concepts into CXO-level storytelling.

Qualifications

  • Not just what you know. What you have shipped.
  • Deployed 2–3 agent-based systems in production - stateful, multi-step, real users
  • Used LangGraph for multi-agent orchestration with memory, tool routing, and state management
  • Built projects where AI (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor) wrote significant portions of the code
  • Implemented RAG pipelines end-to-end - chunking, embedding, retrieval, re-ranking, evaluation
  • Integrated agents with real enterprise APIs - not just OpenAI playground or sample data
  • Debugged a production agent failure - and fixed it without blaming the model
  • Can articulate when NOT to use agents - that is how we know you have built things

Responsibilities

  • Own end-to-end delivery of AI-native programs - from architecture through production deployment
  • Design and build multi-agent orchestration systems using LangChain, LangGraph, CrewAI, or equivalent
  • Integrate agent systems with enterprise surfaces: APIs, ERPs, CRMs, data platforms - not toy datasets
  • Define agent topology: tool routing, memory strategy, state machines, fallback handling
  • Run agentic coding workflows using Claude Code, Cursor, OpenAI Codex, or equivalent CLI tools
  • Lead projects where AI writes significant portions of the codebase - and you guide, review, and ship it
  • Work with CLAUDE.md, shared context frameworks, and multi-session agent setups for team use
  • Debug non-deterministic agent outputs systematically - not by gut feel
  • Translate business problems into agent architectures for global CXO-level stakeholders
  • Run discovery workshops, solution reviews, and delivery cadences with client teams
  • Prepare and present technical proposals, POC plans, and roadmaps - own the story end-to-end
  • Mentor junior AI engineers; raise AI engineering quality across the delivery team
  • Stay current: evaluate new models, frameworks, and tooling before the hype catches up
  • Contribute to internal knowledge bases, reusable frameworks, and accelerators

Full-Time /Permanent Role

AI Lead – Delivery & Engineering
About the Role

This is not a slide-making or prompt-engineering role. We are looking for someone who has built multi-agent AI systems that run in production - not demos, not pilots that died after a sprint. You will anchor AI delivery programs end-to-end, work directly with global clients, and stay sharp on a field that changes every few weeks.

You will report into and replicate the function of a senior AI delivery leader - which means you need both the depth to architect solutions and the presence to walk a CXO through what you built and why it works.

Key Responsibilities
Delivery & Architecture
  • Own end-to-end delivery of AI-native programs - from architecture through production deployment
  • Design and build multi-agent orchestration systems using LangChain, LangGraph, CrewAI, or equivalent
  • Integrate agent systems with enterprise surfaces: APIs, ERPs, CRMs, data platforms - not toy datasets
  • Define agent topology: tool routing, memory strategy, state machines, fallback handling
Agentic Coding & Development
  • Run agentic coding workflows using Claude Code, Cursor, OpenAI Codex, or equivalent CLI tools
  • Lead projects where AI writes significant portions of the codebase - and you guide, review, and ship it
  • Work with CLAUDE.md, shared context frameworks, and multi-session agent setups for team use
  • Debug non-deterministic agent outputs systematically - not by gut feel
Client & Stakeholder Engagement
  • Translate business problems into agent architectures for global CXO-level stakeholders
  • Run discovery workshops, solution reviews, and delivery cadences with client teams
  • Prepare and present technical proposals, POC plans, and roadmaps - own the story end-to-end
Team & Practice
  • Mentor junior AI engineers; raise AI engineering quality across the delivery team
  • Stay current: evaluate new models, frameworks, and tooling before the hype catches up
  • Contribute to internal knowledge bases, reusable frameworks, and accelerators
Skills
Agent Orchestration

LangChain, LangGraph, CrewAI - not just conceptual

Agentic Coding Tools

Chroma, Weaviate, Pinecone - knows where RAG breaks

LLM APIs & SDKs
Python / TypeScript

Primary languages for agent + backend development

LangSmith / Observability

Tracing, evaluation, debugging agent runs

Azure, AWS, GCP (at least one) - deployment, infra, managed services
API & System Integration
MCP / Shared Context
Agent Evaluation

Testing non-deterministic outputs, guardrails, evals

CI/CD & DevOps

Git, containers, pipelines - agents need to ship

Client Communication

Can present architecture to a CXO without jargon

What You Must Have Actually Done

Not just what you know. What you have shipped.

  • Deployed 2–3 agent-based systems in production - stateful, multi-step, real users
  • Used LangGraph for multi-agent orchestration with memory, tool routing, and state management
  • Built projects where AI (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor) wrote significant portions of the code
  • Implemented RAG pipelines end-to-end - chunking, embedding, retrieval, re-ranking, evaluation
  • Integrated agents with real enterprise APIs - not just OpenAI playground or sample data
  • Debugged a production agent failure - and fixed it without blaming the model
  • Can articulate when NOT to use agents - that is how we know you have built things
Bonus - Real Differentiators
  • Experience with Claude Code CLI in team environments (CLAUDE.md, shared context, multi-session flows)
  • Familiarity with LangSmith for agent tracing, evaluation pipelines, and debugging at scale
  • Has shipped something using MCP (Model Context Protocol) or similar shared-context tooling
  • QA/testing mindset for agents - systematic evaluation of non-deterministic outputs
  • Background in IT services or consulting - managing client expectations while building
  • Experience with SLMs, fine-tuning, or on-device/edge agent deployment
What We Are Not Looking For
  • Someone who lists LLMs on a resume but has only called the API in a Jupyter notebook
  • AI enthusiasts whose hands-on experience is less than a year old
  • People who explain everything in terms of frameworks they have never deployed

Consultants who can only narrate what others have built
