About the Role

We are seeking an experienced Senior Software Engineer specialising in Agentic AI to join our Innovation engineering team at JLL Technologies. You will design, build, and deploy production-grade multi-agent AI systems that power next-generation intelligent features within Azara, our AI-driven data intelligence platform for commercial real estate. This role sits at the intersection of software engineering and applied AI, requiring you to architect autonomous agent workflows, build RAG pipelines, orchestrate LLM interactions, and deliver AI solutions that create tangible business value at enterprise scale.

Key Responsibilities

Agentic AI Architecture & Development

Design and build production-grade multi-agent systems using LangGraph as the primary orchestration framework, with knowledge of LangChain, CrewAI, and AutoGen

Architect agent orchestration patterns including planning, tool use, persistent state management, memory, reflection, and multi-agent coordination

Develop and optimize RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) pipelines with document processing, chunking strategies, embedding workflows, and vector database integration

Build robust agent evaluation, testing, and observability frameworks to ensure reliability and performance in production

Design natural language to data query solutions integrating with platforms such as Databricks Genie

LLM Integration & Optimization

Integrate and manage LLM/SLM services (OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, Anthropic, open-source models) with appropriate model selection, prompt engineering, and cost optimization

Design prompt engineering strategies including chain-of-thought, few-shot, and structured output techniques for reliable agent behavior

Implement guardrails, safety mechanisms, and content filtering for AI-generated outputs

Evaluate and benchmark models for latency, accuracy, cost, and domain-specific performance

Platform & Backend Engineering

Build scalable Python backend services (FastAPI) that serve AI agent workflows to production applications at enterprise scale

Design and implement caching, rate limiting, persistent agent state, and conversation memory strategies

Develop event-driven microservices and real-time streaming for AI agent interactions

Develop APIs and integration layers that connect AI agents with enterprise data sources, tools, and external services

Implement distributed task processing (Celery) and event-driven autoscaling (KEDA) for production AI workloads

Innovation & Technical Leadership

Stay current with the rapidly evolving Agentic AI landscape and evaluate emerging frameworks, models, and techniques

Lead proof-of-concept development for new AI capabilities, moving successful experiments to production

Mentor engineers on AI engineering best practices, prompt engineering, and agent design patterns

Contribute to technical documentation, architecture decision records, and AI solution design specifications

Champion the adoption of AI-powered development tools (Cursor AI, GitHub Copilot) across engineering teams

Required Qualifications

Strong proficiency in Python with hands-on experience building production AI applications

Demonstrated experience with LangGraph or similar agentic AI frameworks (LangChain, CrewAI, AutoGen) for production systems

Hands-on experience with LLM API integration (OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, Anthropic) and prompt engineering

Experience designing and implementing RAG systems including embedding models, vector databases, and retrieval strategies

Solid understanding of multi-agent system design, agent orchestration, persistent state management, and memory patterns

Experience with Python web frameworks (FastAPI) and distributed task processing (Celery) for production APIs

Experience with event-driven microservices (Dapr) and real-time streaming patterns (SSE)

Proficiency with AI-powered development tools (Cursor AI, GitHub Copilot, or similar) for AI-augmented software development across the SDLC

Proficiency with Git, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud platforms (preferably Azure)

Preferred Qualifications

Experience with vector databases (Qdrant, Pinecone, PgVector, ChromaDB)

Experience with Databricks Genie or similar natural language to data query platforms

Experience with AWS Bedrock AgentCore for managed agent runtime and multi-cloud agent deployment

Experience with multi-tenant architecture patterns and enterprise-scale AI systems

Experience with containerization (Docker, Kubernetes) and event-driven autoscaling (KEDA)

Understanding of AI safety, responsible AI principles, and enterprise governance requirements
