About the role
What will you do at Obin AI?
The Role
We're looking for AI Engineers who can help us build and scale intelligent
agents from the ground up. You’ll join our team as one of our earliest hires.
You'll work directly with the founders (ex-Google) and own key technical
decisions from day one.
You’ll be
● Owning agentic AI strategy across the company's product suite; sets governance
standards for agent evaluation, safety and autonomy.
* Recognized technical authority in multi-agent systems; publishes reusable
blueprints/reference architectures; represents the company externally
(conferences, open source, technical publications).
* Designing and Deploying LLM-Powered Agents
Build agentic systems using LLMs and RAG to automate complex credit workflows.
This includes prompt design, tool use, orchestration logic, and system
evaluation.
● Working Directly with Customers
Partner with technical and non-technical stakeholders at major credit firms to
understand workflow pain points and co-develop AI solutions that directly tie to
ROI.
● Owning Production Infrastructure
Architect and maintain backend systems and APIs that connect to data sources and
customer platforms. Ensure high availability, performance, and observability.
● Evaluating and Optimizing Systems
Balance accuracy, latency, reliability, cost, and explainability in our agentic
systems. Lead rigorous experimentation and improvement cycles.
● Contributing to Core Platform Design
Define technical architecture, build reusable infrastructure for agent
deployment, and shape the foundation of Obin’s AI engineering best practices.
● Setting Culture and Standards
Help define Obin’s engineering culture, hiring bar, and long-term technical
roadmap
We believe great AI Engineers come from diverse backgrounds and are unified by
deep curiosity, pragmatism, and engineering excellence.
Experience Required:
* 10-15+ years of software engineering experience
* 5-8+ years of hands-on experience building AI/ML systems/frameworks ,
LLM-based agents and/or RAG systems in production
* Logging, evaluating, optimizing AI applications
* Sets architecture for agentic AI systems across products; solves ambiguous
problems inherent to non-deterministic systems (context pollution, runtime
state handoffs, safety).
* Expert in agent-to-agent (A2A) orchestration protocols, self-correcting agent
loops, prompt-routing middleware; drives AI safety/reliability practices and
evaluation standards; mentors senior engineers.
* Proficiency in Python and experience with modern AI/ML frameworks and cloud
infrastructure (GCP preferred)
* Experience with cloud infra (preferably GCP) and APIs
* Hunger to move fast, own outcomes, and build something enduring
* Strong intuition around system architecture, performance, and scaling
* Clear communication, especially in ambiguous, high-stakes problem spaces
Bonus:
● Experience with human-in-the-loop systems, feedback loops, and
long-horizon agentic task execution
● Background in financial systems, risk modeling, or decision automation
● Familiarity with PydanticAI, LlamaIndex, Google ADK, Claude Agent SDK,
or similar frameworks
● You’ve built or contributed to an internal AI platform or reusable LLM
tooling
