About the Role

The Advanced Remanufacturing and Technology Centre (ARTC) is looking for a Software Engineer to develop and deploy agentic AI applications for industrial and enterprise use cases. This role focuses on building AI-driven systems that can reason, orchestrate tools, interact with enterprise data and workflows, and support autonomous or semi-autonomous decision-making. You will work closely with software engineers, AI researchers, and domain experts to design scalable backend systems, integrate LLM-powered capabilities, and develop practical agentic AI solutions for real-world operations. We are looking for candidates with strong software engineering fundamentals, curiosity about emerging AI technologies, and a passion for learning and building in a fast-evolving space.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design, develop, and deploy scalable backend systems and APIs for agentic AI applications
  • Build and integrate AI agents that interact with enterprise systems, databases, APIs, and external tools
  • Develop orchestration workflows involving LLMs, tool usage, memory, and multi-agent coordination
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to translate operational requirements into AI-enabled solutions
  • Ensure reliability, observability, and maintainability of deployed applications and services
  • Explore and evaluate emerging technologies related to LLMs, agent frameworks, and AI system architectures
  • Contribute to software architecture, system optimization, and engineering best practices

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related fields
  • Around 3 years of software engineering experience preferred
  • Strong programming and software engineering fundamentals
  • Experience building backend systems, APIs, or full-stack applications
  • Familiarity with databases, cloud platforms, and modern development frameworks
  • Basic understanding of LLMs, prompt engineering, and AI application concepts
  • Interest in agentic AI systems, orchestration workflows, or intelligent applications
  • Comfortable learning new technologies and working in fast-evolving environments

Good to have

  • Experience with Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, or modern backend frameworks
  • Familiarity with Azure/AWS/GCP, Docker, Kubernetes, or CI/CD pipelines
  • Exposure to AI tooling, workflow orchestration, or data platforms
  • Experience working on AI-enabled products, copilots, chatbots, or automation systems
  • Interest in manufacturing, industrial applications, or enterprise AI solutions
