Job description

We are seeking a Lead GenAI & Data Engineer to design, build, and scale intelligent, enterprise-grade Agentic AI systems. In this role, you will work hands-on with Google Agent Development Kit (ADK) and LangChain/LangGraph to create AI agents that integrate deeply with enterprise Systems of Record (SoRs) through reliable, governed data pipelines.

You will lead the end-to-end delivery of AI agent solutions-from architecture and workflow design to production deployment-while ensuring performance, observability, security, and compliance. This role requires strong collaboration with business, operations, and process excellence teams to deliver real-world AI copilots and agents with measurable business impact., * Design and develop agentic AI applications using Google ADK, LangChain, and LangGraph, including:

  • Multi-agent orchestration
  • State and memory management
  • Tool integration using enterprise-approved LLMs
  • Integrate AI agents with enterprise Systems of Record by building and maintaining secure APIs, connectors, and data pipelines across structured and unstructured data sources.
  • Incorporate organization-approved foundation models (e.g., Google Gemini, Anthropic) into task-oriented, agent-based workflows.
  • Collaborate with Process Excellence, Operations, and business partners to identify, prototype, and implement AI agents and copilots.
  • Build scalable, production-ready Python services supporting agent workflows, including RAG, tool calling, structured outputs, and memory.
  • Engineer batch and streaming data pipelines to provide governed, high-quality data access for AI systems.
  • Develop and optimize advanced SQL queries for analytics, feature extraction, and real-time agent decisioning.
  • Implement observability, evaluation, guardrails, and cost controls across data and AI layers to ensure quality, reliability, compliance, and efficiency.
  • Apply cloud-native tools and best practices (Google Cloud Platform preferred; Azure/AWS acceptable) to ensure data quality, lineage, and secure operations.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of Software Engineering experience, or equivalent demonstrated through a combination of work experience, consulting, education, training, or military experience.
  • 5+ years of hands-on experience in GenAI, Agentic AI, and AI/Data Engineering roles.
  • Strong proficiency in Python for backend services, AI pipelines, and workflow orchestration.
  • Hands-on experience building agentic AI solutions using Google ADK and LangChain/LangGraph.
  • Advanced prompt engineering and context engineering skills.
  • Solid data engineering background, including:
  • Building ETL/ELT pipelines
  • Integrating data from APIs, databases, files, and streaming sources
  • Managing data quality, schema evolution, and lineage
  • Advanced SQL skills (complex joins, window functions, query optimization).
  • Experience implementing RAG architectures and integrating LLMs with enterprise data sources (vector stores and relational systems).
  • Experience delivering production-grade systems, including testing, CI/CD, logging, monitoring, and error handling.
  • Ability to consult on complex, large-scale initiatives, evaluate ambiguous problems, and collaborate strategically with cross-functional stakeholders.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with modern data stack tools such as dbt, Airflow/Cloud Composer, Kafka/Pub/Sub, BigQuery, or Snowflake.
  • Familiarity with vector databases and hybrid retrieval strategies.
  • Experience deploying scalable solutions on Google Cloud Platform (preferred).
  • Knowledge of data governance, security, and PII handling within AI and data pipelines.
  • Experience with LLMOps practices, including evaluation frameworks, prompt/version management, tracing, and cost optimization.
  • Experience implementing AI safety, guardrails, and risk controls in enterprise environments.
