About the role

The Data Fabric team is a cross-functional team at Kinaxis that builds a multi-tenant, multi-cloud data platform on Databricks (GCP & Azure) to connect, govern, secure, and discover data for supply chain and AI products. We deliver secure tenant isolation, governed data sharing, and the harness enablement layer that lets agentic AI safely reason about and act on enterprise data. As a Senior AI Software Engineer on the Data Fabric team, you will design and implement execution patterns, tool-calling infrastructure, and runtime guardrails that enable agentic workflows to operate reliably on enterprise-grade data at scale.
