AI Agent Engineer

$250k

Harrison Clarke

Compensation: up to $250,000 (depending on experience)

We're partnering with a high-growth AI company building the next generation of intelligent software systems within healthcare. They are looking for a strong software engineer who has hands-on experience building and shipping AI agents into production.

What You'll Do

  • Design, build, and ship AI agents and agentic workflows into production.
  • Develop systems that enable AI agents to reason, use tools, retrieve information, and complete complex tasks.
  • Build and improve RAG systems, agent harnesses, and supporting infrastructure.
  • Debug and evaluate agent behaviour across real-world use cases.
  • Identify failure modes and develop strategies to improve agent reliability, accuracy, and consistency.
  • Work closely with product and engineering teams to turn emerging AI capabilities into production-ready experiences.
  • Develop evaluation and quality frameworks to understand how agents perform and where they need improvement.

What We're Looking For

  • Strong software engineering fundamentals and experience building production systems.
  • Demonstrated experience building and shipping AI agents into production.
  • Practical understanding of agentic architectures, workflows, tool use, and RAG.
  • Experience debugging, evaluating, and improving AI agent behaviour.
  • Strong intuition for how AI systems behave in production, including their limitations and failure modes.
  • Ability to work effectively in a fast-moving environment where the technology and best practices are constantly evolving.
  • A builder's mindset and willingness to experiment, iterate, and solve ambiguous problems.
