Role Description

Titan is growing from a handful of live banking customers to thirty, then to hundreds. This role sits across the AI Toolbelt and Product Engineering lanes, owning the production AI systems that bank employees use every day β€” agent workflows, retrieval pipelines, and LLM integration layers. We bring a problem and expect a working solution.

Agent orchestration frameworks for multi-step reasoning, tool use, and constraint-based problem solving across banking workflows

RAG pipelines covering embedding generation, chunking, hybrid retrieval, and retrieval evaluation, calibrated for banking document types

LLM integration layers connecting banking models, APIs, and knowledge bases into reliable, auditable inference workflows

Evaluation infrastructure including behavioral contracts, regression baselines, and production observability for non-deterministic AI outputs

Backend services and APIs powering client-facing AI products at bank-tier uptime requirements

Qualifications

5+ years software engineering; 2+ years building and shipping production agentic AI or RAG systems

Agent framework experience: LangChain, LangGraph, PydanticAI, AutoGen, or Semantic Kernel

RAG stack proficiency: embedding models, vector DBs (Pinecone, Weaviate, Milvus, FAISS), hybrid search, retrieval evaluation

LLM integration depth: tool calling, structured outputs, multi-step reasoning, behavioral regression testing

AI eval and observability tooling: LangSmith, RAGAS, DeepEval, Arize, Langfuse, or equivalent

REST APIs, async Python, microservices; Azure cloud experience preferred

Requirements

Background in software engineering with at least five years of experience, the last two spent building and operating production AI systems

Shipped agentic workflows, RAG pipelines, or LLM-powered applications to real users

Strong Python fundamentals across APIs and async systems

Fluent in LangChain, LangGraph, PydanticAI, or AutoGen

Hands-on experience with vector databases, retrieval evaluation, and observability tooling such as LangSmith, RAGAS, Arize, or Langfuse

Prior fintech or banking experience is a genuine advantage

Benefits

Competitive base and meaningful equity

Remote (US) with occasional travel to client sites and team offsites

What Success Looks Like

Within 90 days, ownership of at least one production AI workflow end to end with measurable improvements shipped to the retrieval or agent layer

Within six months, the go-to person on the team for hard agent and retrieval problems, operating independently from a high-level brief through to recommendation and implementation

At one year, a senior anchor on the AI engineering function with a track record of pulling others up and a credible path to leading other AI Engineers
