Along with our partner, we are seeking a highly technical AI Agent Engineer to design, build, deploy, and operationalize production-grade agentic AI systems across a rapidly growing behavioral health organization.This role is ideal for someone with deep hands-on experience building LLM-powered automation, multi-agent systems, retrieval pipelines, durable execution workflows, and production AI infrastructure.


You will work directly with operational departments to identify automation opportunities, architect AI-driven workflows, deploy production agents, and train teams to operate them successfully.

The successful candidate will own systems end-to-end — from workflow discovery and architecture design through deployment, observability, evaluation, security, and post-launch optimization. This is not a research-focused role. It is a highly execution-oriented engineering position focused on shipping reliable AI systems in production environments.


Key Responsibilities:

  • Design, build, and deploy production AI agents and LLM-powered automation systems.
  • Work directly with operational teams to identify automation opportunities and optimize workflows.
  • Develop multi-step AI systems with tool usage, retrieval pipelines, integrations, and memory architectures.
  • Build integrations with operational systems, communication platforms, and internal tools.
  • Define evaluation frameworks, guardrails, observability, and monitoring standards for AI systems.
  • Implement durable execution workflows, retry mechanisms, and fault-tolerant automation pipelines.
  • Design and maintain reusable AI infrastructure, MCP servers, skills libraries, and internal tooling.
  • Train non-technical teams on how to operate, monitor, and escalate issues with AI systems.
  • Ensure HIPAA compliance, security, auditability, and responsible AI practices.
  • Collaborate with leadership to identify future AI opportunities and platform improvements.


Required Experience:

  • 7+ years of experience building production software systems.
  • Strong Python development experience and familiarity with TypeScript.
  • Experience working with frontier AI model APIs and production LLM systems.
  • Hands-on experience building production AI agents and orchestration workflows.
  • Experience with agent frameworks, evaluation systems, and observability tooling.
  • Strong understanding of retrieval pipelines, vector databases, and RAG architectures.
  • Experience implementing security, guardrails, and monitoring for AI systems.
  • Experience working with cloud infrastructure and durable execution systems.
  • Strong communication skills and ability to train non-technical stakeholders.
  • Experience handling PHI-sensitive or regulated systems environments.


Preferred Experience:

  • Experience with self-hosted AI runtimes and MCP server development.
  • Experience building multi-agent or supervisor-worker architectures.
  • Experience integrating AI systems with business operational platforms.
  • Familiarity with healthcare, HIPAA, or responsible AI frameworks.
  • Experience working in high-growth operational environments.
  • Spanish language proficiency is a strong plus.


Benefits:

  • A fully remote position with a structured schedule that supports work-life balance.
  • The opportunity to join a company actively deploying AI systems across real operational healthcare workflows.
  • Two weeks of paid vacation per year.
  • 10 paid days for local holidays.

*Please note our partner is only looking for full-time dedicated team members who are eager to fully integrate within their team.
