Job Description

Job Summary

Senior Agentic AI Engineer - Leeds City Centre (permanent, hybrid: 2 days in office, 3 days remote).

Responsibilities
  • Design and build multi agent systems for autonomous reasoning, planning, and task execution.
  • Architect orchestration patterns including tool use, memory, reflection loops, and human in the loop handoffs.
  • Deliver solutions across use cases such as developer productivity, knowledge retrieval, and process automation.
  • Leverage GCP native and enterprise grade managed services rather than building custom infrastructure.
  • Develop end to end RAG architectures (ingestion, chunking, embedding, retrieval, reranking).
  • Select and manage appropriate vector databases and build pipelines to transform unstructured data into usable insights.
  • Apply knowledge graph approaches (e.g., Neo4j) where deeper relational or semantic reasoning is needed.
  • Define and implement evaluation frameworks, including automated testing and LLM based assessment.
  • Monitor and optimise agents for cost, latency, quality, and production performance.
  • Collaborate across engineering and business teams to build scalable, compliant (GDPR/EU AI Act) and production ready agentic solutions.
Qualifications
  • Proven experience building and deploying agentic AI systems in production (not just prototypes).
  • Strong Python engineering skills with a focus on clean, tested, maintainable code.
  • Hands on experience designing RAG pipelines (chunking, embeddings, retrieval, evaluation).
  • Experience working with at least one vector database in a production setting.
  • Practical experience with LLM evaluation techniques (e.g., automated evals, LLM as a Judge).
  • Familiarity with agent frameworks (e.g., LangChain, LangGraph, CrewAI, AutoGen) and judgement on their use.
  • Solid understanding of LLM fundamentals: prompting, tool use, structured outputs, context management.
  • Experience with cloud platforms (GCP preferred; AWS or Azure also considered).
  • Desirable: Experience with Google Agent Development Kit (ADK) or Vertex AI Agent Builder.
  • Understanding of MCP (Model Context Protocol) and agent to agent communication patterns.
  • Experience with knowledge graphs or graph databases (e.g., Neo4j, JanusGraph).
  • Familiarity with LLMOps and observability tools (e.g., LangSmith, Langfuse).
  • Experience building solutions in regulated or enterprise environments.
  • Background in BPO, AP automation, or document processing workflows.
Benefits
  • Competitive salary + bonus.
  • 25 days annual leave (plus 5 additional days that can be purchased).
  • Birthday off and an extra 3 days of annual leave after 5 years of service.
  • Well being and mental health benefits: Calm app, personal medical, critical illness cover, dental insurance.
  • Matched pension contribution up to 10%.
  • Car benefit scheme.
  • Online learning platform for continuous development.
