The role
Raydar is recruiting for this role on behalf of our client. Build and ship AI agent systems that run in production for real users, from model pipelines through backend services and user interfaces. Design shared agent frameworks, evaluation tools and orchestration layers that the wider engineering team relies on, and take full ownership of the modules you deliver.
What you'll do
- Build and release production AI agents that carry out multi-step business workflows.
- Design agent frameworks, context handling, orchestration, evaluation and verification layers used across the engineering team.
- Work directly with end customers to understand their processes and turn them into AI-based solutions.
- Own features end to end, spanning the language model pipeline, infrastructure, backend services and user experience.
- Contribute platform abstractions and shared systems that raise the output of the whole team.
What we're looking for
- 4 to 12 years of software engineering experience.
- A computer science or mathematics degree from a highly ranked US university.
- Two-plus years of hands-on work taking agent-based AI software from concept to live operation.
- Proven background in server-side engineering, with a record of constructing core systems that handle heavy load at well-regarded firms.
- Hands-on record of delivering language-model agents that include evaluation, context handling, orchestration and safety checks.
- Comfortable using modern AI-assisted development tools in everyday work.
- Strong communication skills for interactions with customers.
Bonus points
- Peer-reviewed publications in artificial intelligence or machine learning.
- Experience at an early-stage startup.
- Depth in large-scale distributed computing, data platforms or process orchestration software.
- Comfort holding direct conversations with business users and senior leaders.
