Senior Software Engineer I, Agentic AI Systems

The Role

Are you a software engineer who has honed your craft, partnership, and execution over years building and improving production systems, and are looking to apply your skills at the cutting edge of AI agents? This may be the role for you.

As a senior software engineer on our “agent lab” Natural Language Understanding team, you will play an important part in our mission: to advance the frontier of work that can be entrusted to agents to perform reliably at scale. You will have the opportunity to contribute to the evolution of the Moveworks AI Assistant platform in several of the following areas: agent orchestration, sandboxed file systems and code execution, latency optimization, agent memory, LLM self-reflection and improvement, execution environment simulation, enterprise knowledge graphs, and multimodal I/O.

You will have all the tools of modern enterprise AI at your disposal, including best-in-class LLMs from providers like OpenAI. Our team indexes on moving fast on scalable infrastructure, solving challenging product and engineering problems, and pushing the envelope of value provided to customers. If you are looking to do impactful work with a bright, dedicated, and impact-driven team alongside you, we’d love to have a conversation.

What You Will Do:

• Take on exciting and difficult engineering challenges (see areas listed above) to build and evolve capable AI agent systems that are reliable in every sense of the word
• Implement frontier AI algorithms and architectures and help productionize them at scale
• Use the latest advances in machine learning, LLMs, and AI agents to enhance our products and create delightful user experiences
• Contribute to roadmap and help drive the evolution of engineering areas of growing scope and impact to create lasting value for all our customers
• Hone your craft in writing robust, extensible, readable, and performant code
• Partner with subject matter experts across the company including in machine learning, security, product, user experience, and customer success, to learn from each other and build the best enterprise AI product the world has ever seen
• Mentor other engineers on the team in how to build, maintain, and evolve great software
• Collaborate with machine learning engineers, learn from each other, and build world-class AI systems

• 2+ years experience designing, building, and improving production systems, ideally at scale
• Ability to think and communicate clearly about complex engineering problems and systems
• Comfort giving and receiving feedback, and in holding yourself and your coworkers accountable to a high standard of operational excellence
• Readiness to hit the ground running in a Mac development environment, programming in Python, Golang, and/or Java
• Desire to ship at a startup pace with a high degree of ownership
• Attention to detail
• Drive to ship product improvements with production-grade code
• Strong appetite for continuous incremental wins and completing challenging projects fast
• High level of curiosity about engineering outside of immediate discipline and ongoing desire to learn and stay at the cutting edge of applied AI

Nice To Have:

• Experience building with LLMs, particularly in iterating on prompts, on model selection, on cognitive architecture design, and on latency/correctness tradeoffs in a data-driven way
• Hands-on experience driving one or more stages of a machine learning problem-solving lifecycle, such as experiment setup, dataset curation, model training, offline evaluation and error analysis, deployment, and online evaluation
• Experience in AI fairness, privacy, permission controls, safety, and/or security
