What are the responsibilities and job description for the Sr. Agentic AI Engineer position at Smart IT Frame LLC?
Job Title: Senior AI Agent Engineer
Location: McLean, VA (Onsite)
SDLC Optimization Job Summary
• We are seeking a forward-thinking AI SDLC Engineer to transform our development processes from linear automation to an agentic, multi-agent workflow.
The ideal candidate will design, build, and deploy specialized AI subagents (e.g., using frameworks like LangChain, CrewAI, or Claude Code) that collaborate to create production-grade software.
You will enable AI to handle specialized tasks
—architecture planning, frontend/backend development, debugging, and security reviews
—while maintaining context isolation. Responsibilities
• Subagent Architecture & Creation: Design and implement task-specific AI subagents (e.g., ""Code Reviewer,"" ""SQL Expert,"" ""Frontend Builder"") with dedicated system prompts, tool access, and context boundaries.
• Orchestration & Workflow Automation: Build orchestration logic to manage the lifecycle of subagents (initialization, delegation, execution, and cleanup) using agentic frameworks.
• AI-Driven SDLC Integration: Implement agentic workflows across the entire SDLC, from requirements gathering and architecture design to automated testing, code review, and deployment.
• Context & Memory Management: Optimize AI performance by isolating noisy, long-running tasks into subagents, ensuring the main agent remains efficient and context-aware.
• Tooling & Integration: Integrate AI agents with internal development tools, including Bitbucket, Jira, ServiceNow and CI/CD pipelines.
• Performance Evaluation: Monitor, evaluate, and refine agentic workflows to improve code quality, reduce toil, and accelerate release cycles.
