As a technologist, you will be a key voice in defining and refining product concepts to take advantage of opportunities afforded by new tech & greater industry developments. You will adopt industry-leading agentic engineering techniques and leverage "agent-first" ways of working to deliver products, reflecting the realities of today's software development lifecycle., * Contribute across the full software stack to deliver user journeys to production, owning implementation quality from architecture to release

• Design and build agents that apply prompts, context, tools, and model reasoning to fulfill user journeys, generate content, and automate processes
• Apply sound software engineering and system design principles to produce solutions that are observable, maintainable, scalable, and production ready
• Validate solutions against functional requirements using both traditional QA methods, model-based evals, and agent tracing to ensure quality is measurable and reproducible
• Incorporate agentic software engineering techniques into the development workflow across the SDLC, from planning, design, implementation, testing, and maintenance
