Accordion Intelligence Lab

The AI Lab is composed of leading software and AI engineers, designing agentic-AI solutions ahead of the market. Our group builds and operationalizes the AI systems that power Accordion’s consulting capabilities, from agentic architectures and RAG pipelines to evaluation frameworks and production observability.

New hires join AI-augmented delivery pods, working alongside AI engineering, data, and product teammates from day one, and initially integrate with the broader Lab team before moving into a specialized pod.

About the Role

This posting covers two levels: Associate Software Engineer and Senior Software Engineer. We’re looking for engineers who want to build real agentic systems, not tinker with demos. You’ll work under the direction of Staff-level engineers on live client engagements — writing the agent logic, the RAG pipeline, the eval harness — and growing steadily toward owning a workstream yourself.

This is a highly technical, hands-on role in a high-velocity, client-facing environment: sprints are short, client expectations are high, and the work is real from week one. You’ll be expected to ship fast, learn quickly, and raise your own bar on what AI-assisted delivery looks like. If you’ve spent time in large enterprise engineering organizations where velocity is constrained by process, this will feel different.
