About The Position

Genesis10 is currently seeking a Senior AI Agentic Engineer for a contract position with a Major Financial Institution located in Charlotte, NC and Atlanta, GA. This is a contract to hire opportunity. The Senior AI Agentic Engineer is a senior, production-focused builder responsible for designing, implementing, and hardening agentic AI systems that operate safely and reliably in a regulated environment. This role sits between the architecture authority and delivery execution, turning reference patterns into repeatable, production-grade implementations across multiple use cases. Success is measured by increased market velocity and AI resilience.

Requirements

5+ years in software engineering with 2+ years building LLM-enabled applications or agent systems in production
Strong Python proficiency (primary) and working knowledge of TypeScript
Hands-on experience with at least one frontier model platform (Claude, GPT-4+, Gemini) including tool use and multi-turn workflow design
Production delivery experience: CI/CD, containerization (Docker), and operational readiness (monitoring, logging, incident response)
Experience implementing and validating RAG systems (vector search, embeddings, retrieval quality) and testing approaches for non-deterministic outputs
Ability to design for reliability and safety: failure mode thinking, graceful degradation, and clear human escalation paths

Nice To Haves

Experience in regulated financial services (SOX, GLBA, data classification, audit expectations) and partnering with security/risk teams
Experience with evaluation frameworks and model monitoring practices
Experience building multi-agent orchestration and constraint systems
Familiarity with secure software development (threat modeling, SAST/DAST, secrets management) and prompt injection defenses
Experience integrating AI copilots/agents into developer workflows and using "agentic coding” tools (e.g., Devin) responsibly

Responsibilities

Design and implement production agent workflows using internal reference patterns: single-agent, supervised multi-agent, and tool-using agents with clear human-in-the-loop decision gates
Build tool integrations to enterprise services and banking systems (APIs, data products, document services) with strong error handling, authorization boundaries, and audit logging
Engineer RAG pipelines and retrieval behavior that meet accuracy and latency targets for the use case
Implement agent memory and state management patterns that are compliant and operationally safe
Create and maintain evaluation harnesses and regression suites for non-deterministic outputs
Partner with AI Security to implement required guardrails and pass pre-deployment security gates
Instrument agents for observability: decision traces, tool-call telemetry, retrieval diagnostics, token/cost metrics, and quality signals
Ship via CI/CD with production readiness: feature flags, rollbacks, versioning, and runbooks
Use Devin to accelerate delivery while maintaining engineering accountability
Lead design and code reviews for agent components and mentor junior engineers
Debug complex failure modes and implement mitigations
Coordinate with AgentOps on deployment, monitoring, and incident response
