## About the Role

* 3-6 years of software engineering experience with at least 2 years building agentic AI systems in production - not just RAG pipelines or chatbots.
 * Hands-on experience implementing agent skills, plugins, or tools that extend an agent harness (Claude Code, OpenCode, Codex, OpenClaw, LangGraph, or equivalent).
 * Proficiency in Python; Go experience is a strong advantage.
 * Understanding of agent planning loops, tool-calling protocols, function calling APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google format), and prompt engineering for reliability.

What you'll bring

 * Open-source contributions to agent frameworks or LLM tooling - we value engineers who learn in public.
 * Experience evaluating and benchmarking agentic systems: building evals, golden datasets, and automated regression testing for agent behaviors.
 * Familiarity with Teradata Vantage, SQL query optimization, or columnar analytics - or with a competing platform (Snowflake, Databricks, BigQuery) at depth.
 * Experience with vector databases, embedding models, and hybrid retrieval for agent memory and context management.
 * Strong written communication - you can explain a complex agent architecture in a document that a PM and a customer engineer can both understand.
 * A passion for how AI can unlock potential to help our teams, our customers, and our communities achieve great things.
