CI&T is looking for an AI Engineer to participate in the transformation of the software development lifecycle using AI. If you have solid experience in software development, genuine curiosity about generative AI, and want to build systems and flows that enable AI agents to operate in a production environment, this is your chance! Challenges: You will be responsible for designing, implementing, and developing agentic flows that transform the SDLC of development teams for a strategic client in the benefits sector. While the AI Orchestrator coordinates the process, the AI Engineer builds the infrastructure that makes automation possible — from custom agents to integrations with the delivery pipeline.

• Configuration of agent parameters and strategies for optimal performance at each stage
• Planning and execution of the AI infrastructure roadmap in collaboration with the AI Orchestrator
• Automation of development stages while adhering to quality, security, and compliance standards (SonarQube, Veracode, test coverage)
• Identification and mitigation of technical risks in using agents in a production environment
• Ensuring compliance with ethical and regulatory standards for implemented AI solutions

Requirements:

• Solid software development experience (Java, Python, or similar)
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and DevOps tools (Azure DevOps, GitFlow, SonarQube)
• Experience with cloud computing, especially AWS (Lambda, SQS, S3)
• Hands-on experience with generative AI tools applicable to development (Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, or similar)
• Ability to write and edit prompts, configure agents, and evaluate output quality
• Understanding of code quality practices: automated testing, BDD, SAST

Advantages:

• Experience with agentic frameworks and methodologies (AISDD, Spec-Kit, or similar)
• Knowledge of microservices architecture (Spring Boot, Quarkus)
• Familiarity with flow monitoring tools (Flow Ops, Databricks, or similar)
• Experience in large-scale projects with multiple teams or squads simultaneously
• Experience in the benefits or fintech sector
