As a Senior AI Engineer II – Agentic AI, you will be a core builder responsible for turning complex, ambiguous problems into production-grade agentic systems that operate on real financial data, serve real customers, and meet real regulatory requirements. You will work end to end: shaping solutions with product and design, building and shipping production code, and owning what you deliver after launch. The scope of this role spans customer-facing LLM-powered features, agentic systems that automate financial workflows, and internal AI capabilities that enable other engineers to build with AI safely and efficiently.
Job Responsibility:
Design, build, and ship LLM-powered and agentic product features that change how customers manage their finances
Build agentic AI systems that reason over context, invoke tools, take real actions, and recover gracefully from failure
Architect and implement production-grade RAG pipelines over sensitive financial data, with strict requirements for correctness, auditability, and safety
Contribute to shared AI infrastructure, including LLM services, agent orchestration frameworks, and evaluation and monitoring tooling, that scales agentic development across Amex Technology
Own the systems you build in production, including reliability, latency, cost, and failure modes
Work closely with product and design partners
engineers in this role are expected to think in terms of customer outcomes, not just technical execution
Requirements:
5+ years of software engineering experience, including meaningful production experience with LLMs or applied ML systems
A track record of shipping AI-powered or agentic systems that real users depend on
Strong engineering fundamentals across backend systems, APIs, data pipelines, and cloud infrastructure
Hands-on experience with modern LLM tooling and agentic patterns and architectures
Fluency with AI-assisted and agentic development workflows
Strong sense of ownership and sound technical judgment
Comfort operating with ambiguity and turning it into shipped reliable product
A strong product mindset and customer orientation
Nice to have:
Experience building agentic systems in fintech or other regulated industries
Experience as a founding engineer or early technical contributor in high-growth environments
Demonstrated ability to ship technically complex systems in regulated contexts that customers actively rely on
Meaningful open-source contributions, particularly in AI or developer tooling
