    Job description

    • Job Role: Data engineer-Engineering
    • Experience (In Years): 6-9
    • Job Location: Gurugram

    Agentic AI Data Engineer

    Role Overview

    Total Experience required : 5-10 Years 

    We are seeking a highly skilled Agentic AI Data Engineer to design, build, and optimize intelligent, autonomous data systems that power next-generation AI applications. This role blends data engineering, machine learning infrastructure, and emerging agent-based AI frameworks to enable scalable, self-orchestrating pipelines and decision-making systems.

    You will work at the intersection of data platforms, large language models (LLMs), and cloud-native architectures—building systems that can reason, act, and adapt autonomously.

    Key Responsibilities

    • Design and implement agentic AI systems that autonomously orchestrate data workflows and decision pipelines
    • Build scalable data pipelines for structured and unstructured data (batch + real-time)
    • Develop and manage LLM-powered applications using retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), tool use, and multi-agent frameworks
    • Integrate AWS AI/ML services into production-grade architectures
    • Develop and optimize data lakes, warehouses, and lakehouse architectures
    • Build APIs and microservices to expose AI/ML capabilities
    • Ensure data quality, governance, and security across pipelines
    • Collaborate with data scientists, ML engineers, and product teams to deploy AI solutions
    • Implement monitoring, logging, and observability for AI agents and pipelines
    • Optimize cost and performance of cloud-based AI workloads

    Required Technical Skills

    Cloud & AWS Ecosystem

    • Strong experience with AWS services, including:
      • Amazon S3, Glue, Lambda, Step Functions
      • Amazon Redshift / Athena
      • Amazon SageMaker (training, deployment, pipelines)
      • Amazon Bedrock (foundation models, agents, knowledge bases)

    AI/ML & Agentic Systems

    • Experience with LLMs and generative AI systems
    • Hands-on with agent frameworks (e.g., multi-agent orchestration, tool calling, planning systems)
    • Familiarity with AgentCore / agent orchestration platforms
    • Understanding of RAG architectures, embeddings, and vector databases
    • Experience with model deployment, inference optimization, and prompt engineering

    Data Engineering

    • Strong proficiency in Python and SQL
    • Experience with ETL/ELT tools and frameworks
    • Distributed data processing (Spark, PySpark, or similar)
    • Streaming technologies (Kafka, Kinesis, or similar)
    • Data modeling and schema design

    Data & AI Infrastructure

    • Experience with vector databases (e.g., Pinecone, FAISS, OpenSearch)
    • Knowledge of data lakehouse architectures (Delta Lake, Iceberg, Hudi)
    • Containerization (Docker) and orchestration (Kubernetes)
    • CI/CD for ML and data pipelines

    Preferred Qualifications

    • Experience building autonomous AI agents for enterprise use cases
    • Knowledge of multi-agent collaboration systems and planning algorithms
    • Familiarity with LangChain, LlamaIndex, or similar frameworks
    • Experience with MLOps and LLMOps practices
    • Understanding of graph-based workflows and knowledge graphs
    • Exposure to real-time AI systems and event-driven architectures

    Soft Skills

    • Strong problem-solving and system design skills
    • Ability to work in fast-paced, evolving AI environments
    • Effective communication and cross-functional collaboration
    • Curiosity and adaptability to emerging AI technologies

    Education & Experience

    • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field
    • 4+ years of experience in data engineering or ML engineering
    • Hands-on experience with production-grade AI/ML systems

    Nice-to-Have

    • Experience with reinforcement learning or planning systems
    • Background in distributed systems design
    • Contributions to open-source AI/data projects
    • Certifications in AWS (e.g., Solutions Architect, Machine Learning Specialty)

    What You’ll Build

    • Autonomous data pipelines that self-heal and optimize
    • AI agents capable of reasoning over enterprise data
    • Scalable LLM-powered applications integrated with business workflows
    • Intelligent systems that move beyond automation into decision-making
