Harness Engineer

Anitech Solutions is hiring a Harness Engineer to build and improve TypeScript-based platforms that use AI agents under human control. The role also involves configuring and operating the harnesses on client engagements, ensuring safe and verifiable delivery, and feeding client experience back into the platform.

Responsibilities:

• Extend the deterministic orchestrator that owns control: agents run bounded tasks, and only the orchestrator decides what happens next
• Build and tune the agent loop: the context each agent sees, the tools it may hold, and the model class it runs on
• Connect the harnesses to the systems clients use: issue trackers, Git hosts and CI on GitHub and GitLab
• Build the React operator screens used to start, watch, approve and replay runs
• Set up the harness on each new client estate: repository discovery, coding standards, gates and configuration
• Run the harness on the client's backlog, working alongside their engineers, product owners and approvers
• Own the quality of what ships: review merge requests, explain the audit trail, and fix what the gates catch
• Show clients how the governance works, so their own people can approve with confidence
• Build the evaluation and replay tooling: scenario suites, regression runs and replay of real runs from the event log
• Add metrics and cost metering so every ticket reports cycle time, tokens and cost
• Own the sandbox: pinned images, no network, read-only file systems and resource limits
• Redact secrets and client personal data before anything is written to disk or logs
• Hold the line that an agent never merges its own work and never records a human approval
• Turn every slowdown, workaround and failure on a client engagement into a harness fix, with a test that proves it
• Cut the set-up time for each new client by making what you configured once reusable
• Write ADRs for decisions that constrain future work and review other people's
• Keep one gate that runs the same locally and in CI and never weaken it to get a change through
• Adhere to company and customer policies, processes and standards, including our ISO/IEC 27001 Information Security Management System and data protection requirements, and promptly report any security concerns or incidents
