senior Software Engineer ic · Posted May 7, 2026

We are looking for a skilled Agentic AI Software Engineer to join our team. The ideal candidate is passionate about building autonomous, multi-agent systems and will be responsible for designing, developing, and maintaining integrations of NVIDIA NIM microservices and Blueprints into leading agentic AI frameworks and open-source libraries. You will work across the agentic AI ecosystem to enable Day-0 NVIDIA model and inference support in agent orchestration platforms and tooling.

What you'll be doing:

  • Design and implement NVIDIA NIM connectors and Blueprint integrations into upstream agentic AI frameworks (e.g., LangGraph, LlamaIndex, AutoGen, CrewAI, Claude Agent SDK, OpenAI Agents SDK)

  • Build and maintain agentic workflows — including tool use, memory, planning, and multi-agent coordination patterns — powered by NVIDIA inference services

  • Develop test harnesses and evaluation pipelines to validate agent behavior, tool-call correctness, and end-to-end workflow quality

  • Evangelize NVIDIA agentic AI capabilities through demos, documentation, and upstream community contributions

  • Partner with NVIDIA NIM and release teams to ensure Day-0 agentic support for new models and inference APIs

  • Continuously discover emerging agentic frameworks and drive integrations that expand the NVIDIA agentic ecosystem

  • Mentor junior engineers and review contributions from internal and external contributors

What we need to see:

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent experience

  • 8+ years of experience in software design, development, and testing

  • Hands-on experience building with LLM-based agent frameworks and patterns (tool use, RAG, multi-agent orchestration, structured outputs)

  • Familiarity with inference APIs and serving frameworks (OpenAI-compatible APIs, NIM, vLLM, TensorRT-LLM)

  • Experience in open-source development — contributing to and maintaining upstream projects

  • Strong understanding of AI application developer workflows and the modern agentic AI stack

  • Strong verbal and written communication skills

  • Action-driven with strong analytical and debugging skills

  • Ability to adapt quickly in a fast-moving, research-driven environment

  • Enthusiasm for working across multiple diverse projects and communities

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

  • Demonstrated contributions to agentic AI frameworks or LLM orchestration libraries

  • Experience designing and evaluating multi-agent systems, including reliability, latency, and correctness at scale

  • Deep familiarity with the open-source inference and agentic ecosystem (LangChain, LlamaIndex, AutoGen, Haystack, etc.)

  • Published work, blog posts, or conference talks on agentic AI or LLM systems
