This role offers opportunities to work across the stack, focus on customer value, and gain leadership experience as the engineering team grows.

Responsibilities

  • Lead the development of agent pipelines, including designing modular SDK components, driving production rigor, and supporting junior engineers.
  • Architect composable agent SDKs with built-in safety and robust fallback strategies.
  • Design tracing tools and alert dashboards to ensure agent performance and quality.
  • Own the agent lifecycle, from chaining and testing to CI/CD and production rollout.
  • Collaborate closely with security and operations teams to ensure agent governance and auditability.
  • Mentor and uplevel teammates on best practices in observability and resilience.
  • Solve challenging technical problems across the stack to develop critical customer-facing features, including frontend (React, Typescript), communication layer (GraphQL, Apollo), and backend (Python, Flask, sqlalchemy).

Requirements

  • Experience building and deploying AI-driven workflows (e.g., tool-calling systems, RAG pipelines, autonomous agentic orchestration) using frameworks like LangChain, LangGraph.
  • 5+ years of strong software engineering experience building and scaling end-to-end production systems.
  • Strong knowledge of API design, system performance, and software architecture.
  • Proficiency in modern programming languages such as Go, TypeScript, or Python, and familiarity with frameworks like React.
  • Familiarity with identity and access management systems (e.g., SCIM, OAuth2, SAML) or integrating with IDPs and HRIS tools.

What We Value

We seek engineers who are passionate about shaping the next generation of intelligent agents, building reliable and modular systems, and elevating those around them. If you are energized by architecting robust agent SDKs, creating tools for safety and observability, and mentoring others, you will thrive at Lumos.
