Job description
CloudiQS is building an agentic AI capability that sits inside a real product, touches real systems, and has to behave predictably in production. This role is for a strong software engineer who wants to work on AI systems without leaving engineering discipline behind.
You'll be building and owning AgentCore / Bedrock based agents that can reason over CloudiQS data, call internal APIs safely, and produce outputs users can trust - with guardrails, observability, and clear failure modes.
This is not a research role. It's shipping code.
What You'll Own
Platform Engineering
-
Architect Front End / Backend Integration's and deliver the agent runtime on AWS (Bedrock AgentCore, Lambda, Step Functions, CDK)
-
Design the deployment pipeline: clic deploy, sdk, config * provision * deploy * monitor, targeting rapid delivery
-
Build multi-tenant infrastructure patterns that isolate customer workloads safely
-
Own CI/CD, infrastructure-as-code, and automated testing
Agent Engineering
-
Build AgentCore-based agents with tool use, memory, and retrieval (RAG) capabilities
-
Implement guardrails: input/output validation, cost controls, permission boundaries, and circuit breakers
-
Design observability: structured logging, trace capture, token tracking, and drift detection
-
Define and enforce clear failure modes - agents must fail predictably, not silently
Team & Delivery
-
Hire and lead a team of 4-6 engineers (backend, platform, and AI engineering)
-
Set engineering standards: code review, testing strategy, incident response, documentation
-
Ship iteratively with production milestones - not research sprints
-
Work directly with the CEO to translate customer requirements into engineering priorities
Requirements
Do you have experience in Software development?, Do you have a Master's degree?, Must Have
-
5+ years software engineering experience, at least 2 in a senior or lead role
-
Strong Python and/or TypeScript in production environments
-
Hands-on AWS: Lambda, Step Functions, CDK/CloudFormation, IAM, and familiarity with Bedrock
-
Experience building systems that call external APIs with retry logic, rate limiting, and graceful degradation
-
Track record of shipping and operating production services - not just prototypes
-
Comfortable making architectural decisions with incomplete information
-
Experience hiring engineers and setting technical direction for a small team
Strong Preference
-
Experience with LLM-based systems: prompt engineering, tool use patterns, RAG pipelines, or agent frameworks
-
AWS certifications (Solutions Architect, Developer, or DevOps Engineer)
-
Background in multi-tenant SaaS or platform engineering
-
Observability tooling experience (CloudWatch, Datadog, OpenTelemetry)
