Our platform runs on Databricks and AWS. We're hiring a strong software\nengineer to design, build, and ship production services - including LLM-powered agents and the tooling\naround them. This is a hands-on, code-first role. \nWHAT YOU'LL WORK ON \nDesigning, building, and productionizing LLM agents: tool-use loops, retrieval, orchestration,\nevaluation, and guardrails \nWriting the production-grade services and APIs around those agents in Python and Node/TypeScript \nDeploying and operating on AWS - provisioning with IaC, wiring CI/CD, owning your code from\ncommit to production \nContributing to a shared codebase with feature branches, code review, and Conventional Commits \nREQUIRED \nSoftware Engineering (the core) \nStrong Python and Node/TypeScript - writes clean, tested, production-grade code, not scripts \nSolid fundamentals: data structures, API design, error handling, testing, debugging real systems \nFeature branches and PRs; comfortable both giving and receiving code review; meaningful commit\nmessages \nFollows engineering standards (12-factor, testing, documentation) without hand-holding \nAWS + IaC \nReal AWS experience - the environment our services run on \nDeploys with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, CDK, or equivalent) rather than clicking through\nconsoles \nComfortable with CI/CD, environment promotion, and AWS basics (S3, IAM, networking) \nLLM Agents (non-negotiable) \nThis is a hard requirement, not a nice-to-have. We are a small team and cannot train this skill on the job\n- you must already know how to build agents and be able to contribute to real work quickly. \nHas built and shipped LLM agents to production - not demos or prototypes; systems that ran and\nwere relied on \nCan explain the agent loop from experience: how the model decides to call a tool, observes the result,\nand re-decides across multiple steps\n1\nSenior Software Engineer, AI Agents \nHas designed retrieval (RAG) end-to-end - chunking, indexing, hybrid or re-ranked retrieval - and\ncan justify each choice\nHas a real evaluation story: how they measured whether the agent was correct, and the worst failure\nmode they hit in production and fixed \nKnows when NOT to use an agent - where a plain LLM call or deterministic code is the better answer \nFramework-agnostic - LangChain, CrewAI, Databricks Agent Framework, or raw tool-use loops all\nfine; what matters is that you've shipped real agents \nDatabricks (working proficiency) \nOur platform runs on Databricks, so this is required - but working proficiency, not mastery. You should\nbe able to build and ship in Databricks unaided; you don't need to be a Spark-tuning specialist. \nComfortable building and running Databricks notebooks and Jobs (task chains, parameters,\nschedules) end-to-end \nUnderstands the Unity Catalog three-part namespace (catalog.schema.table) and works within it \nHas written Delta Lake operations beyond basic reads - e.g. MERGE, overwrite, schema evolution \nCan navigate and debug an existing pipeline, not only write greenfield code \nGOOD TO HAVE \nDeeper Databricks / Spark depth - performance tuning, advanced Unity Catalog governance \nMCP (Model Context Protocol) exposure \nAgent observability and tracing tools in production \nConstruction, AEC, or project-based industry experience\nJira \nGENERAL BAR \n5+ years writing code, not configuring tools \nShips independently: scopes work, executes, communicates progress \nCan ramp on an unfamiliar system by reading docs and asking targeted questions","description_format":"text","description_chars":3622,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"phd","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Artificial Intelligence"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-15T06:32:22Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":86,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.86,"p_room":1,"age_days":0,"expected_fill_days":23,"reasons":["conf:1","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-10-15T19:58:33Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/ncircletech-senior-software-developer-ai-agents","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/ncircletech-senior-software-developer-ai-agents.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-15T19:58:33Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":30308,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-16T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":4422089},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=4422089"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fncircletech-senior-software-developer-ai-agents"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fncircletech-senior-software-developer-ai-agents"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fncircletech-senior-software-developer-ai-agents"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/ncircletech-senior-software-developer-ai-agents\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fncircletech-senior-software-developer-ai-agents"}]}
