About The Position

AI capabilities are moving quickly from experimentation to operational use, and successful delivery requires more than strong technical ideas. It takes clear direction, thoughtful engineering, and a team that can turn complex requirements into reliable solutions. As an Agentic AI Engineer & Technical Manager, you’ll help lead that work from initial design through production delivery. In this role, you’ll provide hands-on technical leadership across AI agents, applications, data integration, and cloud technologies. You’ll help establish architecture direction, mentor developers, review technical work, coordinate stakeholders, and keep delivery focused on meaningful outcomes. You’ll work alongside engineers, data specialists, cloud and security professionals, and mission stakeholders to translate priorities into practical solutions. If you’re a hands-on technical leader who enjoys helping teams solve difficult problems and deliver capabilities that matter, we invite you to join us.
