Job Responsibilities

• Execute software solutions, design, development, and technical troubleshooting, thinking beyond routine approaches to solve complex problems.
• Create secure, high-quality production code and maintain algorithms that run synchronously with appropriate systems.
• Produce architecture and design artifacts for complex applications, ensuring design constraints are met by software code development.
• Gather, analyze, synthesize, and develop visualizations and reporting from large, diverse data sets to drive continuous improvement of software applications and systems.
• Proactively identify hidden problems and patterns in data, using insights to drive improvements in coding hygiene and system architecture.
• Contribute to software engineering communities of practice and events that explore new and emerging technologies.
• Adopt and learn new technologies that positively impact agentic solutions.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including product, design, and operations, to deliver end-to-end solutions.
• Lead code reviews, mentor junior engineers, and promote best practices in software engineering.
• Ensure compliance with security, privacy, and regulatory requirements in all software solutions.

Required Qualifications, Capabilities, and Skills

• 5+ years of software engineering experience, with 2+ years building complex scalable applications or agentic systems.
• Hands-on experience building agentic systems using LLMs/SLMs
• Experience setting up and maintaining MCP servers and building MCP-compatible tools/adapters
• Proficient in coding in one or more languages: Java, Python; able to jump between Java and Python projects as needed.
• Proficiency building production services with either Spring AI and the Spring ecosystem (Spring Boot, Spring Security, Spring Cloud), or Python (FastAPI/Flask), with typed contracts, testing, and packaging.
• Solid AWS background with working knowledge of ECS or EKS, containerization (Docker), and CI/CD (GitHub Actions/Jenkins/Code Build).
• Strong API design skills (REST/OpenAPI; gRPC and familiarity with observability stacks (e.g., Splunk, CloudWatch, Prometheus/Grafana, Open Telemetry).
• Practical understanding of LLM patterns: function calling/tools, RAG, prompt management, context windows, token budgeting, and safety guardrails.
• Strong testing culture: unit/integration tests, load tests, and evaluation datasets for agents.
• Excellent communication and cross-functional collaboration skills.
• Experience with agile methodologies and working in fast-paced, iterative development environments.

Preferred Qualifications, Capabilities, and Skills

• Expertise with distributed orchestration patterns for LLM applications (graph-based flows, retries, fallbacks, guardrails) and secure integration with enterprise tools and data.
• Experience with safe rollout strategies (shadowing, A/B testing, progressive exposure), human-in-the-loop review, and continuous evaluation for quality and safety, including canary rollouts.
• Knowledge of API gateways, service mesh, and multi-region high availability and disaster recovery for mission-critical services.
• Familiarity with data privacy, security best practices, and regulatory compliance in financial services.
• Experience with performance optimization, scalability, and reliability engineering for large-scale systems.
• Ability to evaluate and integrate third-party tools, libraries, and frameworks to accelerate development.
• Demonstrated leadership in technical communities, open source contributions, or industry forums.
