  • Practical experience building Agentic AI systems — multi-agent orchestration, planning, tool-calling, memory management (e.g., LangChain, LangGraph, AutoGen, CrewAI, DeepAgents, or similar).
  • Experience designing low-code/configuration-driven frameworks or platforms for non-technical users.
  • Solid understanding of LLM integration patterns (prompt engineering, function/tool calling, streaming responses via SSE/WebSockets).
  • Strong API design skills using frameworks like FastAPI/Flask, with experience in asynchronous programming (asyncio).
  • Experience with structured logging, observability, and resilience patterns (circuit breakers, retries) in distributed systems.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work in a fast-paced, evolving AI product environment.
