Full Job Description
Job Overview:

We are seeking a highly skilled Individual Contributor (IC) to design and implement agentic AI solutions on the LPL Data Experience (LDX) platform. This role is ideal for a self-driven engineer who thrives in a fast-paced environment, learns quickly, and delivers innovative solutions with minimal guidance.

You will build AI-first, agentic frameworks that automate data governance, exception tracking, reconciliation processes, and lifecycle management across multiple domains. These solutions will integrate seamlessly into LDX, enabling users to review exceptions, configure rules, and visualize reconciliation results through intuitive UI components.

This is a hands-on development role-you will own the design, coding, deployment, and optimization of AI-driven workflows on AWS, leveraging modern orchestration frameworks, LLM-based intelligence, and ML engineering practices integrated into the SDLC.

Responsibilities:
  • Embed AI-first and ML engineering principles into SDLC, ensuring intelligent automation and predictive capabilities are considered from design through deployment.
  • Design and develop agentic AI solutions for:
    • Data governance tracking and compliance monitoring.
    • Exception detection and resolution across multiple data domains.
    • Reconciliation frameworks using rule-based and AI-driven logic.
    • Lifecycle management workflows for investor and operational domains.
  • Build intelligent agents that apply rules or adaptive intelligence to automate exception handling and reconciliation.
  • Develop APIs and microservices using Python (FastAPI) and .NET Core for agentic workflows.
  • Integrate AI workflows with LDX UI components built in Angular for user review and configuration.
  • Implement event-driven architectures using AWS EventBridge, Lambda, and Step Functions for real-time orchestration.
  • Deploy and manage LLMs (Claude, GPT, Amazon Titan) via AWS Bedrock and integrate RAG pipelines using LangChain or Haystack.
  • Build knowledge bases and embedding models for contextual reasoning using vector databases (Pinecone, OpenSearch).
  • Apply memory management techniques for multi-agent orchestration (short-term and long-term memory persistence).
  • Ensure observability and reliability using AWS CloudWatch, X-Ray, and Dynatrace.
  • Implement security best practices (IAM, KMS, encryption) and compliance frameworks (SOC2, GDPR).
  • Build automation frameworks using UiPath or RPA tools to complement AI-driven workflows.
  • Optimize for performance, scalability, and cost efficiency in AWS deployments.
  • Stay current with emerging AI orchestration frameworks, LLM technologies, and cloud-native patterns.

Requirements:
  • 5+ years of experience in software development with a strong focus on AI/ML integration and intelligent automation.
  • 3+ years of hands-on experience building agentic AI solutions and multi-agent orchestration workflows.
  • 5+ years of proficiency in:
    • Backend: Python (FastAPI), .NET Core.
    • Frontend: Angular for UI integration.
  • 3+ years of experience with AWS Agent core, AWS Bedrock, SageMaker, Lambda, Fargate, Step Functions, EventBridge, Glue, S3.

About LPL Financial

LPL Financial is the largest organization of independent financial advisors in the United States. LPL Financial was formed in 1989 through the merger of two brokerage firms: Linsco (established in 1968) and Private Ledger (established in 1973); and has since expanded its number of independent financial advisors from a few hundred to more than 13,300 in 2012. LPL Financial has main office locations in Boston, Charlotte, and San Diego. Approximately 2,900 employees support financial advisors; financial institutions; and technology, custody, and clearing service subscribers with enabling technology, comprehensive clearing and compliance services, practice management programs and training, and independent research.
