As an Agentic AI Software Engineer you will:  

• Design, build, and ship agentic AI features end to end, from detection and decision logic through safe action execution, in a cross-functional agile environment 

• Ground agent behavior in deterministic rules engines and governed data so every agent explains its reasoning and never acts outside permitted boundaries 

• Build and operate the LLM layer, including prompt architecture, structured outputs, confidence scoring, timeouts, and rules-only fallback paths 

• Implement safe patterns for agent actions, including idempotent operations, undo windows, retries with backoff, and immutable audit logging 

• Develop statistical detection and baseline logic that turns workforce data into ranked, explainable findings with business impact attached 

• Manage inference cost, latency, and model selection from development through production 

• Partner with QA on evaluation suites, shadow-mode rollouts, and the trust metrics that gate every agent capability, and mentor junior engineers along the way 

• Operate independently, setting priorities and goals while continuing to learn and grow technically 

Our Technology Stack: 

• Backend: C# on modern .NET and .NET Framework in a multi-tier service architecture.
• Frontend: JavaScript and AngularJS, with Jasmine unit tests.
• Database: Microsoft SQL Server, including schema projects and idempotent migration scripts.
• Delivery: Docker, Jenkins CI/CD, and cloud-hosted deployment.

• 6+ years of professional software development experience, including shipping LLM-backed or agentic features to production.
• Deep production experience with C#/.NET, SQL Server, and API design in systems where correctness has financial consequences, such as payroll, billing, or banking.
• Experience integrating LLM APIs into enterprise applications, with structured outputs, retrieval grounding, and evaluation-driven iteration.
• Working fluency with statistical techniques on time-series data, such as rolling baselines, outlier detection, and threshold tuning.
• The ability to understand requirements and solve technical issues without supervision, serving as a technical lead.

AI Experience Requirements: 

• Hands-on daily use of AI coding assistants or agentic tools, such as Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, or Cursor.
• Production experience with LLM APIs, MCP servers, or internal AI tooling.
• An understanding of human-in-the-loop agent design and write-capable AI.
• A clear understanding of LLM failure modes, including hallucination, prompt injection, and cost overrun, plus the limits and risks of AI-generated code.
• Preferred: experience with multi-agent orchestration, evaluation harness design, or statistical anomaly detection.

Physical Requirements: 

• Prolonged periods sitting at a desk and working on a computer. 
• Must be able to lift up to 15 pounds at times. 

• Competitive salary  
• 20 Days of PTO (Paid Time Off) and 13 days of companywide holidays
