Job Description
Senior AI Engineer - Agentic AI Platform
Location
Chicago, IL (Hybrid)
· 3 days onsite (Tuesday to Thursday)
· Remote Monday and Friday
Position Summary
We are seeking a highly skilled Senior AI Engineer to help design and build an enterprise-scale Agentic AI platform that enables multiple business domains to develop, deploy, monitor, and govern autonomous AI agents.
This role goes beyond traditional LLM application development and requires hands-on expertise in agent orchestration, AI platform architecture, model governance, memory management, observability, cost attribution, multi-agent systems, and scalable cloud-native AI solutions.
The ideal candidate will have experience building production-grade AI systems using Azure AI Foundry, LangChain, LangGraph, vector databases, API gateways, and modern AI engineering practices. The individual should be comfortable making architecture decisions, evaluating technology trade-offs, and designing enterprise-ready solutions that support security, scalability, monitoring, and cost control.
