Lead Software Engineer - AgenticAI
Posted Updated
We are looking for a Lead AI Engineer to help build our next generation Agentic AI platform from 0–1. This is a hands on, delivery driven role for an engineer who has shipped AI powered products into real enterprise environments, understands the trade offs of production AI systems, and takes ownership of outcomes, not just models or demos.
You will work alongside our VP of Engineering, VP of AI, senior engineers, and product leadership to define and build the core AI systems of the platform. You will spend most of your time designing, coding, and shipping production grade AI capabilities used by external B2B customers. Success is measured by reliability, controllability, cost efficiency, and customer impact, not novelty.
How YOU will contribute to BMC’s and your own success
- Build and evolve agentic AI systems that reason, plan, execute, and adapt in production environments.
- Lead AI driven features from concept to production in a true 0–1 product environment.
- Write and review high quality production code (Python first) across AI pipelines, inference services, orchestration layers, and supporting systems.
- Implement prompt engineering, tool use, memory, evaluation, and guardrails as first class engineering concerns, not experiments.
- Contribute to the design of agent frameworks that balance autonomy with determinism, observability, and safety.
- Make pragmatic architectural trade offs across latency, cost, accuracy, scalability, and maintainability.
- Integrate and operate LLMs (commercial and/or open source) including model selection, fine tuning strategies, embeddings, retrieval (RAG), and inference optimization.
- Address real world issues: hallucinations, drift, prompt regressions, failure modes, and customer trust.
- Deploy and operate AI services across cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP), including secure enterprise integrations and customer specific deployments.
- Ensure the platform is shippable, debuggable, and supportable — not fragile or research grade.
- Act with strong ownership: identify gaps, propose solutions, and move forward without waiting for perfect requirements.
