TL;DR · Agentic AI Engineer

As an Agentic AI Engineer (AVP), you will join the Controls Technology team to build and integrate generative AI applications using foundation models via managed APIs and open-model endpoints. You will design context engineering workflows, develop Retrieval-Augmented Generation systems featuring hybrid search and knowledge graphs, and construct agentic workflows utilizing frameworks like LangGraph, CrewAI, or Google ADK. Your daily work involves prompt engineering, data preprocessing, and implementing the Model Context Protocol for tool calling and multi-agent collaboration. You will utilize Python, Docker, and Git to develop production-grade solutions that enhance operational integrity and decision-making within a complex financial institution. The role focuses on transforming foundation models into reliable, autonomous systems while ensuring adherence to responsible AI principles, data privacy, and guardrails within the specialized domain of financial technology infrastructure.

What you'll do

  • Build and integrate generative AI applications using pre-trained foundation models via managed APIs and open-source endpoints.
  • Design context engineering workflows including system instructions, retrieved knowledge, tool definitions, and task metadata for reliable prompting.
  • Develop and maintain Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems featuring chunking, embedding, hybrid search, and re-ranking.
  • Build knowledge graphs and Graph RAG pipelines to support multi-hop reasoning and grounded responses.
  • Create agentic workflows using frameworks like LangGraph or CrewAI to enable tool-calling, structured planning, and memory.
  • Integrate agents with external data sources using the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and Agent2Agent protocols.
  • Deploy, monitor, and maintain production-grade GenAI applications while ensuring compliance with safety guardrails.
  • Perform data preprocessing, document ingestion, and API development to support AI application functionality.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree or Master's degree in Computer Science, Data Science, AI, or a related field.
  • 3–5 years of professional experience in software or AI development with hands-on exposure to Generative AI and agentic AI.
  • Proficiency in Python for GenAI development, data preprocessing, and scripting.
  • Experience building RAG systems including chunking strategies, vector databases, and hybrid search techniques.
  • Experience with prompt engineering, context engineering, and consuming major GenAI APIs like OpenAI, Gemini, or Claude.
  • Exposure to agentic AI development using frameworks such as Google ADK, LangGraph, CrewAI, or the OpenAI Agents SDK.
  • Knowledge of agent tooling, including tool/function calling, Model Context Protocol (MCP), and session management.
  • Understanding of containerization with Docker, version control with Git, and responsible AI principles.
