TL;DR · Agentic AI Engineering Lead, Enterprise Agent Orchestration

The Agentic AI Engineering Lead — Enterprise Agent Orchestration - SVP joins the Developer Services group within the Department Developer Engineering. In this leadership role, you will build an enterprise agentic AI capability from scratch within a highly regulated financial environment. You will own the enterprise rollout of autonomous and semi-autonomous AI agents across the software delivery lifecycle, designing a multi-agent orchestration platform that handles planning, routing, execution, and auditing. Key responsibilities include building agent runtimes, tool integration layers, and evaluation harnesses while defining control models for safe autonomy. You will utilize frontier Generative AI technologies including GPT, Gemini, and Claude through prompt engineering, RAG, and agentic planning loops. Technical requirements include proficiency in Python or Golang, Kubernetes, and experience with LangChain, LangGraph, or LlamaIndex.

What you'll do

  • Architect and build an enterprise agent orchestration platform including runtime, planner/executor loops, and memory management.
  • Design multi-agent patterns for task decomposition, delegation, and deterministic fallbacks.
  • Build a tool integration surface for agents to interact safely with source control, CI/CD, and internal APIs.
  • Establish an evaluation and observability layer for golden datasets, regression gates, and token cost governance.
  • Define the control model for AI autonomy including authorization boundaries, kill switches, and audit trails.
  • Partner with Risk, Compliance, and Security teams to move agentic use cases through model governance.
  • Lead and mentor a team of AI and platform engineers to deliver production-grade backend systems in Python or Golang.
  • Drive enterprise adoption by defining maturity ladders, playbooks, and impact metrics for agentic use cases.

What we're looking for

  • Proven experience leading AI/ML or platform engineering teams in product-focused environments.
  • Strong hands-on engineering experience building and shipping production systems in Python and/or Golang.
  • Demonstrated experience building production agentic AI systems including multi-agent orchestration, planning loops, and RAG pipelines.
  • Experience taking an AI platform from zero to enterprise scale, including greenfield design and multi-tenant platform thinking.
  • Deep knowledge of LLM engineering including prompt/context engineering, evaluation harnesses, guardrails, and cost management.
  • Experience operating AI systems under strict governance with auditability, human-in-the-loop controls, and data protection.
  • Proven experience with distributed systems, event-driven architectures, container-based micro-services, and cloud-native infrastructure.
  • Solid grounding in CI/CD and SDLC controls using tools such as Harness, GitHub Actions, Tekton, or ArgoCD.
  • Hands-on experience with DevSecOps practices and security-by-design principles.
  • Experience in regulated industries like financial services with exposure to audit or model risk management (preferred).
  • Exposure to policy-as-code and compliance-as-code frameworks such as OPA or Rego (preferred).
  • Familiarity with LLM observability, MLOps platforms, or agent interoperability standards (preferred).
