Application/Agentic AI Engineer

Role Overview

• Partner with customer SMEs and operational stakeholders to translate mission workflows and operational requirements into agentic AI solutions, including intelligent agents, workflow specialists, guardrails, tools, and validation frameworks.
• Design, develop, and maintain agent definitions and configurations, including objectives, behavioral instructions, input/output contracts, safety policies, operational constraints, and tool utilization rules.
• Develop workflow-specific AI specialists and reusable agent patterns to support operational and enterprise use cases while maintaining clear functional boundaries and scalable architectures.
• Build and maintain comprehensive AI testing and evaluation suites, including gold-standard input/output validation, adversarial testing, guardrail validation, scope-boundary testing, tool-use validation, regression testing, and multi-turn conversational testing.
• Analyze failed, degraded, or stale agent test results to identify performance gaps, tune agent behavior, improve reliability, and document updates across agent versions and releases.
• Integrate AI agents, orchestration workflows, APIs, and supporting services into existing application and operational environments using modern software engineering and DevSecOps practices.
• Support the deployment, sustainment, troubleshooting, and optimization of AI-enabled applications and agentic workflows across cloud, edge, and hybrid environments.
• Train and mentor customer agent creators on Agent Builder workflows, publishing processes, testing methodologies, maintenance procedures, and operational best practices.
• Develop reusable templates, workflow examples, implementation guides, and best-practice documentation to enable scalable and consistent customer development of agentic AI solutions.
• Collaborate with cross-functional engineering, operations, cybersecurity, and product teams to ensure AI-enabled capabilities align with mission objectives, security requirements, and operational constraints.
• Contribute to continuous improvement efforts for AI-enabled applications, orchestration frameworks, testing methodologies, and software delivery pipelines.
