You'll operate as an AI-native engineer, using AI development tools to accelerate delivery while owning architecture, engineering quality, and customer outcomes. We care more about engineering judgment, ownership, and the ability to learn than expertise in any specific language or framework., * Build the core Enterprise Agent Platform that lets customers create, configure, deploy, and operate AI agents securely at scale, including agent orchestration, workflow execution, context management, memory, governance, and enterprise integrations. * Partner with customers in semiconductor manufacturing, life sciences, and other data-intensive industries to build production-ready AI workflows, then turn those customer-specific solutions into reusable platform capabilities that benefit every customer. * Design the systems that make enterprise AI trustworthy, including evaluation frameworks, verification pipelines, policy enforcement, audit trails, observability, provenance, and human-in-the-loop workflows. * Build the data and knowledge capabilities that connect to enterprise data sources, discover schemas and semantic relationships, and give AI agents the context needed to reason accurately over complex business data. * Develop the runtime that powers long-running AI workflows, managing execution state, retries, approvals, checkpoints, memory, and multi-agent coordination while ensuring reliability and transparency. * Work directly with Product Management, Customer Success, and enterprise customers in workshops, technical discussions, and production deployments to rapidly understand problems and ship solutions. * Own features from concept through production, making thoughtful engineering decisions around APIs, architecture, scalability, security, and performance. * Raise the engineering bar by establishing reusable patterns and best practices, evaluating emerging AI tools for what meaningfully improves engineering productivity, and continuously simplifying how we build.
