- Develop reusable tools, APIs, and components that engineers can compose into new agentic workflows
- Implement retrieval-augmented generation workflows, context management strategies, and prompt patterns that improve accuracy, reliability, latency, and cost efficiency
- Build evaluation harnesses, regression tests, and monitoring patterns for AI-agent behavior
- Define and track metrics such as task completion, groundedness, response accuracy, latency, cost, and failure rate
- Design guardrails and validation patterns to reduce hallucinations, unsafe outputs, and unreliable automation behavior
- Partner with engineering and operations teams to move AI workflows from prototype to production-ready systems
- Design, build, and maintain production-grade Python applications, libraries, and services
- Champion object-oriented design principles, including encapsulation, abstraction, inheritance/composition, reusable interfaces, and clean separation of concerns to improve maintainability and extensibility
- Champion software engineering best practices including modular design, automated testing, CI/CD, code reviews, observability, and documentation
- Create reusable engineering patterns that reduce bespoke development effort and improve consistency across partner engagements
- Collaborate with product, engineering, operations, and data platform teams to translate repeatable business needs into scalable technical solutions
- Build reusable Python libraries that support clean room capabilities across first-party audience workflows and core measurement use cases, including audience onboarding, ingestion, indexing, activation, campaign and impression delivery analysis, reach and frequency, attribution, and incrementality
- Abstract complex analytical and data collaboration workflows into repeatable, self-service components for internal teams and external partners
- Enable configurable feature deployment so new audience and measurement capabilities can be delivered quickly and consistently across partners
- Mentor engineers through code reviews, technical design discussions, and operational best practices
- Help establish engineering standards for AI-assisted workflows, agentic system design, reusable libraries, and production automation
- Promote a culture of reliability, maintainability, and continuous improvement
Skills
- Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience in Computer Science, Information Systems, Software Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, or a related technical field
- 5+ years of experience building production-grade software using Python, including libraries, services, testing, CI/CD, and code reviews
- Hands-on experience building applications using LLMs, RAG, vector databases, prompt engineering, or frameworks such as LangChain, LangGraph, LlamaIndex, or similar tools
- Experience designing AI-enabled workflows, reasoning agents, tool-using agents, or complex automation systems
- 3+ years of hands-on experience with cloud data platforms such as Snowflake, Databricks, or similar technologies
- Strong understanding of production system design, including observability, reliability, scalability, performance tuning, and operational support
- Exposure to data clean room concepts or platforms such as Snowflake Clean Rooms, Databricks Clean Rooms, LiveRamp, Habu, or similar technologies
- Experience with advertising technology, audience activation, campaign delivery, reach and frequency, attribution, incrementality, or reporting workflows
- Snowflake SnowPro Core Certification, Databricks Certified Data Engineer Associate, or similar cloud/data platform certification
Benefits
- Company sponsored benefits, including medical, dental and vision insurance, 401(k), paid leave, tuition reimbursement, and a variety of other discounts and perks
- Fully Remote : This position has been designated as fully remote, meaning that the position is expected to contribute from a non-NBCUniversal worksite, most commonly an employee’s residence
