Deine Stärken

  • Mindestens 5 Jahre Berufserfahrung im professionellen Software Engineering mit Fokus auf resiliente, produktionsreife Systeme in agilen, interdisziplinären Teams; Praxiserfahrung in der Entwicklung und Produktivsetzung von Agentic-AI-Systemen (Multi-Agent Orchestration, Tool Use, MCP, State/Memory Management, RSI Patterns und Agentic RAG)
  • Fundiertes Praxiswissen zu aktuellen Frontier Reasoning-, Multimodal- und Open-Weight-Modellen (OpenAI GPT, Claude, Gemini, Qwen, DeepSeek etc.) inklusive Context Engineering,Model Routing, Structured Outputs sowie Automated Evals und Tracing
  • Starke Software-Engineering- und Cloud-Native-Skills (Python und/oder TypeScript sowie .NET/C#und ASP.NET Core für Enterprise Backends) auf Azure und Kubernetes unter Einsatz von Azure AIFoundry und GitHub (GitHub Actions, Copilot)
  • Solides Verständnis von Enterprise AI Security, Datenschutz und Governance (Least-PrivilegeAgent Permissions, Sandboxed Execution, Prompt-Injection Defense, Auditability)
  • Lösungsorientierte, kommunikative und teamorientierte Persönlichkeit, die Business-Anforderungen rasch erfasst, mit AI-nativen Workflows innovative Lösungen entwickelt und messbaren Mehrwert schafft; Freude an interdisziplinärer Zusammenarbeit, Cross-Skilling und Mentoring runden dein Profil ab
