ROLE DEFINITION & RESPONSIBILITIES

Core Responsibilities

Autonomous Multi-Agent Systems & Orchestration: Architect, build, and deploy production-grade multi-agent systems using orchestration frameworks (LangGraph, CrewAI, AutoGen) implementing complex state machines, conditional routing, parallel execution, task decomposition, and error recovery across multi-node graphs (10+ nodes).
High-Performance Async Backend & APIs: Build enterprise FastAPI applications utilizing asynchronous I/O patterns, integrating PostgreSQL, Redis checkpointing for conversation state persistence, and external REST/event-driven enterprise services.
Real-Time Streaming & Tool Calling: Implement real-time agent streaming via Server-Sent Events (SSE) and WebSockets; develop tool-calling integrations and protocols (Model Context Protocol / MCP, native function calling) for enterprise APIs and data repositories.
LLM Cloud Integration & Prompt Engineering: Integrate enterprise cloud LLMs (AWS Bedrock, Azure OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, GPT-4) and build scalable prompt management systems with versioning, templating, and dynamic compilation.
LLMOps, Observability & Evaluation: Embed observability tooling (Langfuse, LangSmith) for end-to-end agent tracing, telemetry, performance benchmarking, token/cost optimization, and evaluation metrics (success rates, reasoning quality, output accuracy).
Enterprise Security & Mentorship: Ensure secure integration with enterprise authentication (LDAP, SSO), Responsible AI principles, and data governance; mentor junior engineers on async Python patterns and agent architecture.
