Description

You will join an AI agentic engineering team to design and deliver guardrail components, define enforcement patterns across services, and mentor engineers on safe design and defensive programming practices. This is a hands-on technical leadership role focused on building backend systems, APIs, and integrations that govern how AI-driven systems behave across the engineering workflow.

Responsibilities

• Design and deliver backend services and APIs that enforce system behavior across multiple services
• Define where and how enforcement, filtering, and validation should occur within system architectures
• Build cross-service controls and establish patterns that other engineers implement against
• Instrument and improve observability across service boundaries — structured logging, metrics, and distributed tracing
• Own shared tooling and platform components with broad organizational reach
• Mentor engineers on safe design, defensive programming, and failure handling practices

Qualifications

• Required
  • 5–8 years of software engineering experience
  • Strong proficiency in Python and TypeScript
  • Demonstrated experience delivering production systems on AWS (Lambda, Fargate, API Gateway)
  • Demonstrated experience building production systems on AWS using Terraform
  • Experience designing enforcement, filtering, or validation logic that spans multiple services
  • Track record of defining interfaces, contracts, or patterns adopted by other engineers
  • Ability to mentor junior and mid-level engineers on defensive design and safe coding practices
  • Clear written and verbal communication — able to define and document system-level enforcement patterns
  • Systems-level thinking — ability to reason about cross-service dependencies, failure propagation, and contract stability
  • Strong technical curiosity and ability to form clear, experience-backed opinions
• Preferred
  • Experience designing and building agentic workflows or multi-agent systems
  • Familiarity with LLM integration patterns — prompt injection detection, guardrail design, or output filtering
  • Experience with AWS Bedrock — model invocation, guardrail configuration, or AgentCore runtimes
  • Background in platform engineering or developer tooling roles
