You will work directly with the Director of AI Strategy & Transformation and embed with internal teams to identify bottlenecks, imagine parallel AI-powered systems, and turn those ideas into working agentic systems that deliver real business impact. This is an experimental, action-oriented role for someone who enjoys ambiguity, moves quickly from idea to prototype, and has the judgment and communication skills to bring stakeholders along. What You Will Do * Partner with internal functional leaders and subject matter expects to identify high-friction processes and high-value opportunities to redesign how work gets done using AI. * Rapidly prototype, ship, and iterate agent workflows that drive measurable improvements in speed, quality, or efficiency. * Build trust with non-technical stakeholders through clear communication, demos, and practical enablement. * Design and maintain evaluation and feedback loops (e.g., LangChain-based evals) to assess quality, reliability, and safety. * Capture what works and turn it into reusable patterns, playbooks, templates, and internal tooling. * Surface insights from field work to inform broader AI strategy, product direction, and organizational design. * Model strong engineering hygiene: documentation, versioning, monitoring, and continuous iteration. What Success Looks Like (First 6-12 Months) * Multiple teams adopt agentic workflows that materially reduce time-to-outcome or operational burden. * Stakeholders begin to rethink their processes and organizational design based on what you've built. * Teams can safely iterate on agentic systems using your playbooks, tools, and guidance. * Proven patterns accelerate new deployments across the company. ## Related Videos - [Designing and Deploying Distributed Multimodal Multi-Agent Systems with Google's AI Stac](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1976-designing-and-deploying-distributed-multimodal-multi-agent-systems-with-google-s-ai-stac) - [Designing the Future of Human<>Agent Collaboration](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1447-designing-the-future-of-human-agent-collaboration) - [Agentic employees in world's most downloaded FinTech app](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100123-agentic-employees-in-world-s-most-downloaded-fintech-app) - [Creating Industry ready solutions with LLM Models](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/899-creating-industry-ready-solutions-with-llm-models) - [The AI-Native Engineering Org: What’s Real, What’s Hype, What’s Next](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100004-the-ai-native-engineering-org-what-s-real-what-s-hype-what-s-next) - [Dirty Tests And How To Clean Them](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/515-dirty-tests-and-how-to-clean-them) ## Related Articles - [Navigating the AI Shift](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/629-navigating-the-ai-shift) - [How to Become an AI Engineer](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/331-how-to-become-an-ai-engineer) - [What is Agentic Programming and Why Should Developers Care?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/625-what-is-agentic-programming-and-why-should-developers-care) - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [What Are Large Language Models?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/304-what-are-large-language-models) - [Got AI ideas but no money?
