Staff Software Engineer - AI Agents

The Staff Engineer - AI Agents will be the primary architect and technical lead for the team building all AI agents across the ecosystem. Acting as a hands-on leader and Technical Lead, you will be responsible for the team’s overall delivery, translating complex product requirements into actionable technical tasks for a small team. You will design and build high-stakes agentic architectures that reason across multi-modal data sources.

Responsibilities

Technical Execution: Lead the technical delivery by decomposing high-level roadmaps into granular, actionable tasks for the agent development team. You are the execution owner responsible for mentoring engineers and ensuring high-quality output through rigorous architectural oversight.

Agentic Architecture Design: Architect and implement advanced agentic systems and RAG pipelines that perform multi-step reasoning across disparate data sources to answer complex diagnostic questions.

Solving the Grounding Problem: Lead the development of confidence scoring systems and validation workflows to ensure zero tolerance for plausible-but-wrong AI output in heavy equipment service.

Multimodal Agent Development: Design and code agents capable of processing and extracting procedures from diverse inputs, including text, images, and video, to generate verified training content.

Customer AI Integration Strategy: Architect the APIs and data access patterns that allow customers to build their own AI solutions using company data while maintaining strict hallucination and scope controls.

Production AI Scaling: Design and deploy production-grade AI capabilities within Google Cloud Platform and AWS, ensuring systems scale reliably with customer demand while managing compute costs effectively.

Evaluation Frameworks: Establish the metrics and gold dataset pipelines needed to measure retrieval quality and improve agent accuracy over time.

AI Native SDLC Actively utilize autonomous coding agents to plan, generate, and test AI logic, maintaining high velocity while ensuring code quality through agent-assisted peer reviews.

10 years of Software Engineering experience, with a proven history of shipping complex, distributed systems at scale.

Proven track record of designing and deploying agentic architectures, multi-step reasoning systems, and complex RAG pipelines in production.

Technical Stack: Expert mastery of Python (FastAPI, Django) and Agent development frameworks (eg, Google ADK)

AI & Retrieval Mastery: Deep experience in Agentic Architectures, GraphRAG, and multi-modal

agent design (processing images/video alongside text), Agent Evaluation.

Cloud Infrastructure: Expertise in deploying AI workloads at scale across Google Cloud

Platform and AWS

Coding Agents: Demonstrated proficiency in using coding agents to accelerate the SDLC

and plan and code complex engineering tasks.
