Full Job Description
IMC is embedding agentic AI directly into the developer workflow for our production-critical systems. As a member of the Agentic AI engineering team, you'll help build agents, MCP servers, and evaluation loops that make AI-generated code reliable, auditable, and fast to ship. You'll work closely with experienced engineers and platform teams to deliver pragmatic, high-impact AI integrations at scale.
What You'll Do
Contribute to the platform by implementing agents, MCP servers, and supporting services that propose and apply changes to large codebases
Assist in developing retrieval systems that give AI agents and developers accurate, up-to-date context from large codebases and design artifacts
Help measure and improve AI-generated changes by building compile/test/evaluate pipelines (static analysis, style and safety checks, performance gates, code review)
Apply IMC's best practices in concurrency, telemetry, configuration hygiene, and performance-sensitive code paths to ensure AI outputs are reliable and idiomatic
Collaborate with teammates on experiments to evaluate and improve AI-driven workflows
What You Bring
BS+ in Computer Science (or related) with strong fundamentals (algorithms, data structures, systems)
Proficiency in a high-level programming language (Java or Python preferred)
Experience contributing to developer-facing or production systems
Curiosity and eagerness to learn about AI/LLM application patterns, even if you haven't worked closely with them yet
Strong communication skills; comfortable working with engineers in a fast, collaborative environment
Nice to Have
Exposure to AI tools or workflows (e.g., LangChain, LangGraph, AutoGen, or similar)
Experience with retrieval systems (vector search, embeddings, or hybrid approaches)
Familiarity with compiler/static analysis or large-scale refactoring tools
Interest in customizing or fine-tuning open-weight models
Knowledge of model-serving or evaluation infrastructure
Why This Role at IMC
Impact at scale: Your work will help bring AI directly into production developer workflows
Growth: You'll gain hands-on experience with cutting-edge AI systems while learning from specialists in AI, systems, and developer productivity
Collaboration: Join a team that works closely across engineering disciplines to solve high-value, pragmatic problems
