This is an agentic engineering role with strong Platform foundations. Your primary focus will be the design, development and production operation of autonomous and semi-autonomous agents for software delivery, platform operations, service reliability, security and engineering productivity. You will create reusable agent capabilities, orchestration patterns, tool integrations, memory and retrieval services, evaluation frameworks and governance controls that allow teams to adopt agentic automation safely at scale. You will treat agents as production software: versioned, tested, observable, secure, cost-controlled and accountable. Working across Platform Engineering, Architecture, Security, Data and product teams, you will turn high-value operational workflows into reliable agentic products with clear human oversight, measurable outcomes and safe rollback. Principal Accountabilities * Design, build and operate the enterprise agentic platform, including orchestration, runtime services, model routing, memory, identity and policy enforcement. * Develop reusable agent frameworks, SDKs and patterns that enable engineering teams to build secure, scalable AI agents consistently. * Engineer autonomous and human-in-the-loop agent workflows that plan, execute, validate and escalate tasks within defined risk and governance controls. * Integrate agents securely with enterprise platforms, cloud services, APIs and knowledge sources using modern integration standards and Model Context Protocol (MCP). * Build production-grade agent services using Python, cloud-native architectures, event-driven design, automation and Infrastructure as Code. * Implement robust evaluation, observability and continuous improvement capabilities, including testing, tracing, telemetry and performance optimisation. * Embed security, governance and responsible AI principles through least-privilege access, policy enforcement, auditability and data protection. * Own the reliability and operational excellence of the agentic platform, including CI/CD, cloud infrastructure, monitoring, incident response and production support. * Collaborate with Engineering, Security, Architecture, Data and Risk teams to define standards, document best practices and support adoption of the platform. ## Related Videos - [API Design - Getting Started](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/33-api-design-getting-started) - [Resilient by Design: Building Robust Architectures in High-Stakes Financial Systems](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2106-resilient-by-design-building-robust-architectures-in-high-stakes-financial-systems) - [Swapping Low Latency Data Storage Under High Load](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/746-swapping-low-latency-data-storage-under-high-load) - [AI Agents & Agentic AI](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2017-ai-agents-agentic-ai) - [Rest API Antipatterns](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100208-rest-api-antipatterns) - [Agentic AI - From Theory to Practice: Developing Multi-Agent AI Systems on Azure](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1532-agentic-ai-from-theory-to-practice-developing-multi-agent-ai-systems-on-azure) ## Related Articles - [From Prototype to Production: Build AI Agents with This Free 4-Course Learning Path](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/655-from-prototype-to-production-build-ai-agents-with-this-free-4-course-learning-path) - [What is Agentic Programming and Why Should Developers Care?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/625-what-is-agentic-programming-and-why-should-developers-care) - [A 5-Step Open-Source Setup for Agentic Engineering](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/738-a-5-step-open-source-setup-for-agentic-engineering) - [What Are Large Language Models?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/304-what-are-large-language-models) - [Navigating the AI Shift](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/629-navigating-the-ai-shift) - [Never delegate the understanding](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/749-never-delegate-the-understanding)
