Full Job Description
We are looking for an experienced Principal Software Engineer to build and scale the AI agent systems within our enterprise SaaS application. In this role, you will be responsible for the core engineering of agentic logic, frameworks, and the high-performance backend infrastructure required to support intelligent automation at scale.
Responsibilities summary:
Build AI Agent Frameworks: Develop the internal agents, LLMs, logic and reasoning loops, that allow AI agents to perform complex, multi-step tasks.
Develop Core SaaS Features: Engineer robust, full-stack enterprise web components, ensuring high performance and security across the application.
Data Engineering: Manage and optimize the interface between our AI agents and data.
Engineering Excellence: Write clean, secure, and maintainable code and lead rigorous code reviews and refactoring initiatives.
Automated Testing: Design and implement unit and functional tests to ensure the reliability of both traditional code and non-deterministic AI workflows.
Who You Are:
AI Agent Architecture: Expert-level ability to build and orchestrate autonomous agents capable of planning, reasoning, and executing multi-step tasks via reasoning loops (e.g., React).
Orchestration: Direct experience developing the internal logic and interface layers that allow LLMs to interact with APIs, databases, and system functions.
AI Reliability & Testing: Hands-on ability to create automated unit and functional testing suites specifically designed to validate non-deterministic AI agent outputs and workflows.
LLM Implementation: Extensive experience developing production-grade features using LLM APIs (OpenAI, Claude, etc.), including context window management, prompt optimization, and cost-monitoring.
AI-Assisted Development: Expert proficiency in using tools like GitHub Copilot or Claude to accelerate engineering velocity and maintain high code quality.
Data Layer for AI: Proficiency in MySQL and relational databases, with the ability to write complex, raw queries to feed high-scale enterprise data into agentic workflows.
Production Go at scale: Strong grasp of Go concurrency patterns, memory management, garbage collection behavior, and profiling
Network & Systems Fundamentals: Deep comfort with Linux/POSIX systems, networking primitives (TCP/UDP sockets, WebSockets, gRPC)
High-reliability & Data Integrity: Proven experience designing transactional state machines, resilient webhook/event pipelines, and defensive API integrations.
Production Ownership: Engineers who write integration tests, stress tests, instrument their own observability and debug end-to-end. Enterprise SaaS Foundations: 10+ years of experience in software engineering, design patterns, and clean coding practices to large-scale web applications.
Model Lifecycle: Practical knowledge of model evaluation, experiment tracking, and performance monitoring in a production environment.
Business Prioritization: Strong problem-solving skills focused on translating complex business needs into prioritized technical development.
