Role Description
Agentic AI Engineer (Agent Development & GCP) Who we are:
At UST, we help the world's best organizations grow and succeed through transformation. Bringing together the right talent, tools, and ideas, we work with our clients to co-create lasting change. Together, with over 30,000 employees in 30+ countries, we build for boundless impact—touching billions of lives in the process.
Summary
UST is looking for an
Agentic AI Engineer (Agent Development & GCP) to design, develop, deploy, and operate production-grade AI Agents for next-generation Data Fabric platforms. The ideal candidate will leverage the
Google Agent Development Kit (ADK),
LangGraph, and
Large Language Models (LLMs) to build intelligent agents that automate complex business and data engineering workflows.
This role requires strong expertise in
Python, Google Cloud Platform (GCP), AI Agent development, Model Context Protocol (MCP), Vertex AI, and cloud-native deployment practices. The engineer will collaborate closely with Data Engineers, ML Engineers, and Platform Architects to deliver scalable, secure, and production-ready AI solutions.
The Opportunity
As an Agentic AI Engineer, you will build autonomous AI agents capable of reasoning, tool invocation, and enterprise system integration while ensuring production reliability, observability, and continuous improvement.
Key Roles & Responsibilities
- Design, develop, and productionize AI Agents using Google Agent Development Kit (ADK), LangGraph, or similar agent orchestration frameworks.
- Build intelligent agents capable of multi-step reasoning, tool invocation, and context-aware decision making for enterprise automation.
- Develop and maintain Model Context Protocol (MCP) Servers to expose enterprise data, tools, and services to AI Agents.
- Integrate AI Agents with Google Cloud Platform services including Google Cloud Storage (GCS), BigQuery, Vertex AI Model Garden, and Cloud Run.
- Build secure integrations with enterprise knowledge bases, APIs, and business applications.
- Deploy AI Agents to production using Cloud Run, Docker, Cloud Build, and Infrastructure-as-Code practices.
- Develop and maintain CI/CD pipelines for reliable deployment and lifecycle management of AI applications.
- Design comprehensive evaluation frameworks including automated testing, LLM output validation, performance benchmarking, and AgentOps monitoring.
- Implement prompt engineering strategies, context management, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), and dynamic context loading using MCP.
- Instrument AI agents with logging, tracing, monitoring, and observability for production environments.
- Collaborate with Data Engineers, ML Engineers, Platform Architects, and Solution Architects to design scalable AI-powered workflows.
- Contribute to engineering standards, best practices, and reusable AI platform components.
