Requirements:

• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Computer Science, a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• 8 years of experience with software development using Python or similar coding languages.
• Experience building pipelines for structured and unstructured data using both vector databases and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)-like architectures to power enterprise AI solutions.
• Experience taking production-grade AI solutions from conception to launch, and architecting AI systems on cloud platforms (e.g., Google Cloud Platform (GCP)).
• Experience leading technical discovery sessions with customers.
• Ability to communicate in French, German or other European language (e.g., Spanish and Italian) fluently.

Nice to Haves:

• Master’s degree or PhD in AI, Computer Science, or a related technical field.
• Experience implementing multi-agent systems using frameworks (e.g., LangGraph, CrewAI, Agent Development Kit (ADK)) and complex patterns (e.g., ReAct, self-reflection, hierarchical delegation).
• Knowledge of "Large Language Model (LLM)-native" metrics (e.g., tokens/sec, cost-per-request) and techniques for optimizing state management and granular tracing.

What You'll Be Doing:

• Serve as a developer for complex AI applications, transitioning from rapid prototypes to production-grade agentic workflows.
• Architect and code the "connective tissue" between Google’s AI products and customer's live infrastructure.
• Build high-performance evaluation pipelines and observability frameworks to ensure agentic systems meet requirements for accuracy, safety, and latency.
• Identify repeatable field patterns and friction points in Google’s AI stack, converting them into reusable modules or formal product feature requests.
• Co-build with pre-sales and product teams to instill Google-grade development best practices.
