TL;DR · Staff Agentic AI / Data Engineer

Staff Agentic AI / Data Engineer As part of the Data Center GPU organization's Applied AI team, you will develop production-grade agentic AI systems and data foundations on AMD Instinct GPU infrastructure. You will build and manage core components including orchestration, tool calling, skills frameworks, and streaming inference integrations using ROCm-based serving stacks like vLLM or SGLang. Your daily work involves designing memory and context layers using vector, graph, and relational stores, alongside building telemetry pipelines to ingest deployment data into queryable formats. You will also develop evaluation infrastructure for non-deterministic systems and harden agents against security risks like prompt injection. To succeed, you must possess strong Python skills, experience with Kubernetes, and expertise in RAG, context engineering, and large language model applications to solve complex problems within the AI and high-performance computing domains.

What you'll do

  • Build production agentic AI systems on AMD Instinct GPU infrastructure including orchestration and tool calling.
  • Design and operate memory and context data layers using vector, graph, and relational stores.
  • Develop pipelines to ingest deployment telemetry and field knowledge into queryable formats for internal use.
  • Maintain a library of reusable, versioned, and tested agent-executable skills and tools.
  • Build evaluation infrastructure including regression suites and LLM-as-judge pipelines to monitor behavior.
  • Harden agentic systems against security risks like prompt injection and data poisoning.
  • Create reference architectures and open artifacts to establish AMD as a credible platform for agentic workloads.
  • Support customer-facing engineers by deploying and maintaining systems in live production environments.

What we're looking for

  • Experience building production data pipelines and storage systems at scale (preferred).
  • Hands-on experience building LLM-powered and agentic applications in production (preferred).
  • Expertise in memory/context storage paradigms such as vector, graph, or hybrid retrieval architectures (preferred).
  • Experience designing evaluation frameworks for non-deterministic systems (preferred).
  • Proficiency in Python and modern data stack tooling including orchestration, streaming, and Kubernetes.
  • Familiarity with GPU inference serving like vLLM or SGLang; ROCm/AMD Instinct experience is a plus (preferred).
  • Open-source contribution history in the AI/ML or data infrastructure ecosystem (preferred).
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Data Engineering, or equivalent practical experience (preferred).
