Role Summary
Design and build the foundational platform layers needed to deliver secure, scalable, reusable AI use cases. The role will develop proofs of concept and production-ready patterns across MCP, orchestration, security, caching, and telemetry.
Key Responsibilities
- Build POCs for MCP gateways and retail-domain MCP servers that securely expose enterprise tools and data.
- Design an orchestration layer for coordinating models, agents, tools, workflows, approvals, retries, and failures.
- Establish caching patterns that improve latency and cost while protecting data freshness and privacy.
- Implement agentic authentication and authorization, including identity propagation, delegated access, least privilege, and auditability.
- Create telemetry for AI workflows, including traces, metrics, logs, token usage, tool calls, latency, errors, and policy decisions.
- Deliver reusable APIs, reference implementations, documentation, and standards for application teams.
- Partner with architecture, security, product, and engineering teams to move POCs toward production.
