About the role

What You'll Do

  • Own the agent layer of the platform — architecture, prompts, tool surfaces, multi-agent orchestration, and the eval loop.
  • Set the technical ceiling for the platform's core capabilities: translation accuracy, dependency-map correctness, hallucination control.
  • Drive translation and dependency-mapping accuracy across an unfamiliar legacy paradigm — call graphs, data references, semantic equivalence checks.
  • Take on capability bets that don't show up on most roadmaps yet — agent work at the frontier of code understanding.
  • Drive the prompt-and-eval iteration cycle in partnership with the RAG & Eval Engineer.
  • Write production agent code daily; subagents and multi-agent workflows are your normal way of working.

What We're Looking For

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, plus 5 years of professional software engineering experience; equivalent experience may substitute for the degree requirement.
  • Has shipped at least one production agent (real users, real failure modes) and can describe in detail what broke and how it was fixed.
  • Ability to work in a fast-paced, collaborative environment.
  • Working fluency across the modern agent stack: tool use, MCP, evals, RAG, streaming, multi-agent coordination.
  • Strong TypeScript or Python.
  • Subagents and multi-agent workflows are a normal way of working.
  • Comfort with measurement, regression detection, and prompt-and-eval iteration.
  • Ability to operate without a roadmap — defines the next problem worth solving and goes.
  • Heavy native use of AI tooling: agents in parallel, model as collaborator.
  • Demonstrated experience in a remote work environment.

Nice to Have

  • Tooling around Claude or comparable frontier models at scale.
  • Code-understanding agent work — translation, refactoring, test generation, dependency analysis.
  • Background in compilers, program analysis, or static/dynamic code understanding.
  • Open-source contributions to agent frameworks, MCP servers, or eval harnesses.
  • Legacy-language or legacy-system exposure (rare, and a plus rather than a requirement).
  • Public technical writing or conference talks on production agent work.
  • Healthcare IT or legacy modernization domain experience.

What's in it for you?

  • The opportunity to support high visibility federal missions in IT and healthcare
  • A culture that values innovation, growth, collaboration, and quality
  • Access to cutting-edge tools and technologies
  • Comprehensive benefits for you and your family
  • A career path that rewards ambition and performance
