About the Role We’re looking for an AI Engineer to design and build production-grade AI agents using Google’s Agent Development Kit (ADK).
You’ll work on multi-agent systems that integrate with enterprise data platforms and business tools, taking agents from prototype through to reliable production deployment.
What You’ll Work On –
Designing and building AI agents and multi-agent workflows using ADK –
Agent orchestration patterns: tool use, function calling, sub-agent delegation, and state/session management –
Integrating agents with enterprise data sources (Snowflake, Salesforce, or similar) and internal APIs –
Deploying and scaling agents on Google Cloud (Vertex AI Agent Engine or equivalent) –
Evaluating and tuning agent performance, latency, and cost across different model backends –
Building tooling and guardrails around agent behavior: observability, testing, and safety checks –
Collaborating with data engineering and platform teams to expose reliable, well-governed data to agents Must Have –
Hands-on experience building agents with Google ADK (or comparable agent frameworks such as LangGraph, AutoGen, CrewAI, with strong ability to ramp on ADK) –
Strong Python development skills – Experience with LLM APIs (Gemini, Claude, OpenAI, or similar) and prompt/tool design –
Understanding of agent architecture patterns: planning, tool orchestration, memory/state, multi-agent coordination –
Experience with REST APIs and backend service integration –
Familiarity with Google Cloud Platform (Vertex AI, Cloud Run, IAM, Secrets Manager) Good to Have –
Experience with Model Context Protocol (MCP) or other agent-to-tool integration standards –
SQL proficiency, ideally with Snowflake (CTEs, Dynamic Tables, Views) –
Experience with Snowflake Cortex / Cortex Analyst –
Familiarity with Salesforce data models (Account IDs, object relationships) –
Experience with evaluation frameworks for LLM/agent output quality –
Background integrating agents into existing enterprise applications (React/Next.js, Node.js/NestJS) Requirements –
8+ years of software engineering experience, with recent focus on applied AI/agent systems –
Strong Python skills; TypeScript/JavaScript a plus –
Experience shipping AI features to production, not just prototypes –
Comfortable working independently in ambiguous, fast-evolving technical territory –
Clear communicator, able to explain agent behavior and architecture to both technical and non-technical stakeholders What Success Looks Like –
Agents that are reliable, observable, and behave predictably in production –
Clean integration between agents and underlying enterprise data/systems –
Reduced manual effort for end users through well-scoped agent automation
