Leverage emerging frameworks (e.g., pydantic-ai, LangChain) and evaluate new agentic AI technologies to accelerate development and maintain cutting-edge capabilities. Develop empirical pipelines for measuring and assessing agent performance, ensuring all prompt and model changes are backed by data-driven evidence and quantifiable improvement. Implement advanced Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques to translate natural language queries into complex structured queries against operational data sources. Design human-in-the-loop workflows for error detection, correction, and refinementenabling agents to prompt for clarifications when necessary. Build transparent tracking mechanisms for agent thoughts, decisions, and observations throughout iterative task flows to improve interpretability, debugging, and trust. Evaluate and apply different agent paradigms (ReAct, reflex, goal-based, utility-based, etc.) to align agent behavior with specific task requirements. Collaborate cross-functionally with data engineers, product managers, and customer success teams to ensure AI-driven features align with customer needs and business outcomes. Contribute to the evolution of Selectors conversational UX, making agent interactions more natural, reliable, and contextually aware. Requirements Bachelors or Masters degree in Computer Science, Data Science, or related technical field; or equivalent practical experience. 3-5 years of software engineering experience, with at least 1 year of experience building Agentic AI systems Strong programming skills in Python and familiarity with modern AI/ML ecosystems. Experience building or integrating agent-based systems using frameworks such as pydantic-ai, LangChain, or similar. Solid understanding of Natural Language Processing and prompt engineering techniques. Proven ability to design metrics-driven evaluation pipelines for AI/LLM performance testing. Knowledge of agent reasoning strategies (e.g., ReAct, reflexive, goal-driven, utility-based) and practical experience choosing among them. Familiarity with human-in-the-loop systems, error handling, and recovery strategies. Strong problem-solving, analytical, and debugging skills, with attention to reproducibility and system robustness. Excellent communication skills, with the ability to collaborate in a fast-paced startup environment. Bonus: Experience with operational data domains (networking, cloud, application performance) or conversational UX design. Compensation The salary for this role is $130,000 - $160,000. Final offer amounts are determined by multiple factors, including prior experience, and may vary from the amount listed. #J-18808-Ljbffr
