Job description

We are seeking a Senior AI Data Engineer, Data Platforms , to work day-to-day with agentic coding harnesses (e.g., Claude Code), breaking work into well-scoped tasks, directing AI agents to build and modify code, and reviewing output with calibrated scrutiny - spec-first, tested, and accountable for what your agents produce. Responsibilities Maintain, refactor, and extend the line’s AI applications and services in production Build agentic-friendly software: the tools, services, and workflows that LLM-based agents call Design AI workflows that combine models, prompts, tools, enterprise data, and business logic Validate model behavior, outputs, and assumptions from an engineering and production perspective Design and maintain evaluation frameworks for AI/LLM systems, including test suites and human evaluation workflows Write evaluations and quality checks for agent behavior, and build in grounding and assurance Ensure reliability, scalability, cost control, and latency optimization Help
