What are the responsibilities and job description for the Agentic AI backend engineer( only W2 and Locals) position at Baanyan Software Services, Inc.?
Duration: 12-month CTH
Location: Southlake/Westlake, TX (4x onsite) & SF is an exception if we have strong candidate
Client/Project Context: Working on a large-scale modernization of their legacy mainframe broker-dealer data platform, moving towards a distributed, Google Cloud Platform-based system.
They are looking for candidates who can accelerate development using Agentic AI.
Core Profile & Sourcing Requirements
- Strong backend engineering principles are the absolute priority. AI skills cannot compensate for weak fundamental coding and engineering practices.
- Java, Google Cloud Platform, Kafka, and Database skills.
- The client is now entirely open to .NET engineers alongside Java profiles.
- Candidates must be able to use AI to solve complex engineering problems and build AI agents (not just basic prompt engineering).
- Basic Python knowledge is required to build agents, but deep LLM modeling is not necessary.
- Currently, there are no restrictions regarding tokenization for building these agents.
- Broker-dealer or financial background is considered a "nice to have," not a strict must-have.
- The client values strong engineering foundations and recent aptitude in AI over a specific number of years of experience.
