What We Need
We’re looking for a Senior AI Engineer to design and build production-grade agent and RAG systems that power intelligent, reliable automation across our platform. This role combines hands-on engineering with system-level thinking—owning everything from architecture and evaluation to scalability, observability, and reliability in production. The ideal candidate thrives in ambiguity, moves quickly from prototype to production, and brings a strong focus on quality, safety, and real-world impact.
What You'll Do
Agent Platform Architecture
- Design and implement core capabilities for an enterprise-grade Agent platform, including orchestration patterns such as ReAct, Plan-and-
- Execute, and Supervisor, as well as tool execution, context and memory management, and safety guardrails.
- Design enterprise-grade Agent execution and governance mechanisms, including Human-in-the-Loop approval workflows, multi-tenant
- permission isolation, policy enforcement, and secure execution controls.
- Build reusable Agent Skills, standardized tool interfaces, and a scalable tool ecosystem deeply integrated with NetBrain platform
- capabilities and business workflows.
LLM and Model Optimization
- Design and implement LLM post-training strategies, including domain-specific Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT), DPO/RLHF-based
- preference alignment, and parameter-efficient fine-tuning techniques such as LoRA, to continuously improve model performance in the
- network operations domain.
- Build an Agent self-learning feedback loop that converts production execution traces, user feedback, and evaluation results into high-
- quality datasets for continuously improving prompts, skills, models, and retrieval strategies.
- Analyze and optimize LLM behavior across areas such as instruction following, tool calling, structured output generation, contextual
- understanding, reasoning stability, and hallucination mitigation.
