Software Engineer (Models, Agents and AI)

This is a first of its kind role that will be leveraging our novel Agent Framework to build AI agents that will be deployed to real businesses on the Honu platform. We are looking for the top technologists who are systems thinkers, with a strong foundation in software engineering, computational modeling, and statistical techniques. You should have hands-on experience with the latest technology and frameworks in the Transformers/Generative AI/LLM space, while armed with a healthy dose of practical skepticism. Note: this goes well beyond prompt engineering.

We're taking a revolutionary approach and people who bring a diversity of experience and a track record of creative solutions are particularly welcome.

• Work closely with the senior tech team and subject matter experts to develop models and agents that will leverage our novel framework and help to shape it.
• Be self sufficient in acquiring data and using it within our platform.
• Work closely with other engineers across the company to advance the infrastructure, agent framework, and platform.
• Be an internal expert on the latest developments in the wider AI space, and maintain a pragmatic approach to leveraging the newer technologies.
• Clearly communicate findings, and their meaning and impact.
• Write clean, maintainable and efficient code
• Ensure code quality through TDD and observability practices
• Containerised applications using Docker
• Participate in Agile XP methodologies like pair programming and code reviews
• Utilize GitHub for version control and team collaboration
• This is more of an engineering role rather than a data science role

Requirements

• Passionate technologists, bordering on the obsessive, comfortable on the edge.
• Strong systems thinker, able to see the bigger picture at different resolutions simultaneously.
• Hands-on experience building agents, and leveraging the latest LLM frameworks, and tools ( Langchain, LlamaIndex, MetaGPT, this list is quickly evolving…)

• You possess extensive technical proficiency in Python ( 3+ years professionally ) and are comfortable with a range of libraries including Pandas, scikit, NumPy etc. as well as PyTorch/ TensorFlow and, ideally, cloud-based architecture (AWS/GCP/Azure etc.)
• You are experienced in building computational models and deploying them into production
• Experience in systems simulation, and numerical analysis highly desirable.

• Committed to Agile methodologies like TDD and XP
• Ability to work in a team environment and participate in code reviews
• Strong communication skills for collaboration and problem-solving
• You believe in easy-to-maintain code and identify with modern concepts such as clean coding, automated testing and continuous deployment.
• You’re considerate, humble, and a strong believer in teamwork.
• You're comfortably organised amongst the chaos.
