Responsibilities
- Design and implement planner–executor and reflection-based architectures to enhance reasoning quality and task reliability.
- Develop stateful agent systems and incorporate human-in-the-loop controls, including approval gates, fallback paths, and escalation mechanisms. - Platform Integration - Leverage the Agentic AI Foundations team's platform covering agent runtime, orchestration, memory, tool registry, guardrails, and observability.
Requirements
- These systems will underpin how Socure builds, deploys, and scales AI-driven identity solutions while enabling internal teams to operate with speed, intelligence, and precision.
- Reporting to the Head of New Product Engineering, you'll join a new Internal AI Engineering team with a mandate to design and ship the agentic systems that reshape how Socure operates across sales, marketing, revenue ops, finance, talent, and legal.
- As a Staff AI Engineer on this team, you'll define what to build - not just execute what's been scoped.
- You'll be the first major internal partner building on Socure's Agentic AI Foundations platform - using its primitives to ship faster and providing the real-world pull-through that shapes its roadmap.
- By delivering intelligent automation and agentic workflows you will play a central role in Socure's transformation into an AI-native company, driving step-function gains in efficiency, accuracy, and decision-making across the enterprise.
- Stay ahead of emerging AI technologies and regulatory frameworks to ensure Socure leads the industry in secure, compliant, and intelligent internal systems.
- - Technical Patterns - Discover reusable agent design patterns while building real workflows and contribute them back to the Agentic AI Foundations paved paths so the work compounds across Socure.
- - Operational Excellence - Leverage the evaluation harness and tracing substrate provided by Agentic AI Foundations for continuous performance assessment, failure-mode analysis, and optimization of speed and accuracy of specific agentic solutions.
- WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR REQUIRED - 8+ years of software engineering experience, with at least 2 years focused on AI/ML systems or LLM-powered applications in production. - Deep hands-on
- experience with LLM APIs and at least one agentic framework (e.g. LangGraph, CrewAI or AutoGen). - Strong Python skills and
- experience building production-grade backend services, APIs, and data pipelines. - Proven ability to operate in ambiguity: you've walked into an undefined problem space, figured out what to build, built it, and measured the results. -
- Experience shipping AI/automation solutions that directly impacted business operations. - Strong systems thinking: you design for reliability, observability, and maintainability from day one, not as an afterthought. - Ability to collaborate directly with non-technical business stakeholders to understand their actual workflows and translate those into technical solutions. PREFERRED -
- Experience with multi-agent systems, workflow orchestration, or complex tool-use patterns in production. - Familiarity with evaluation frameworks (e.g., LangSmith, Weights & Biases, Arize, or custom eval pipelines) for AI systems (agent reliability, accuracy benchmarking, failure-mode analysis). -
- Experience with RAG pipelines, vector databases, knowledge graphs, or memory/grounding systems. -
- Experience with agent skill abstraction and structured tool integration via MCP (Model Context Protocol), function calling or similar protocols. -
- Experience with AWS-hosted LLM infrastructure (Bedrock, AgentCore/Strands, Lambda, SageMaker) or equivalent cloud ML services.

Additional details
- WHY SOCURE? Socure is building the identity trust infrastructure for the digital economy — verifying 100% of good identities in real time and stopping fraud before it starts.
- The mission is big, the problems are complex, and the impact is felt by businesses, governments, and millions of people every day.
- We hire people who want that level of responsibility.
- People who move fast, think critically, act like owners, and care deeply about solving customer problems with precision.
- If you want predictability or narrow scope, this won’t be your place.
- If you want to help build the future of identity with a team that holds a high bar for itself — keep reading.
- ABOUT THE ROLE Socure is building the future of trust for digital ecosystems.
- To accelerate our mission, we are expanding the platform to include agentic workflows and internal productivity tools that power innovation across the company.
- WHAT YOU'LL DO - Prioritization of High-Impact Automation - Partner with business teams (e.g., Revenue Ops, Marketing, Finance Ops, Talent Acquisition) to catalog manual, high-frequency workflows and rank them by impact, feasibility, and urgency. - Production Agent Design & Development - Build multi-step, tool-augmented agent workflows that can plan, execute, observe outcomes, and iteratively improve.
- Provide feedback that shapes platform priorities. - Innovation & Standards - Leverage LLMs, multi-agent frameworks, and orchestration platforms to create differentiated internal solutions that can't be bought off the shelf.
