- Tool‑augmented and function‑calling agents
- Understanding of stateful vs stateless agents and memory management
3. Large Language Models (LLMs)
- Hands‑on experience with LLMs (OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, Anthropic, open‑source models)
- Prompt‑engineering techniques for:
- Reasoning (Chain‑of‑Thought, Self‑Reflection)
- Planning and critique loops
- Instruction following and tool use
- Experience with:
- Few‑shot and zero‑shot prompting
- Model selection trade‑offs (latency, cost, context length)
- Knowledge of fine‑tuning / adapters (LoRA) is a plus
4. Agent Frameworks & Tooling
- Practical experience with agent frameworks, such as:
- LangGraph / LangChain (agents, tools, memory)
- Semantic Kernel
- AutoGen, CrewAI, or similar
- Ability to build custom agent orchestration layers beyond frameworks
- Tool abstraction and execution safety (timeouts, retries, sandboxing)
5. Memory, Context & Knowledge Augmentation
- Design of agent memory systems:
- Short‑term (conversation/state memory)
- Long‑term (episodic, semantic memory)
- Retrieval‑Augmented Generation (RAG):
- Vector databases (FAISS, Pinecone, Azure AI Search, etc.)
- Embedding selection and chunking strategies
- Techniques for context management and compression
- Knowledge graph–augmented or hybrid memory (plus)
6. Planning, Reasoning & Control
- Experience implementing:
- Task planners (step planning, re‑planning)
- Constraint‑based execution
- Feedback and self‑correction loops
- Understanding of:
- Tool reliability scoring
- Guardrails and action validation
- Failure detection and graceful recovery
7. MLOps & AgentOps
- Deployment of agents into production environments
- Observability for agents:
- Tracing agent decisions and tool calls
- Logging prompts, responses, and errors
- Model and prompt versioning
- CI/CD for agent systems
- Experience with Docker, Kubernetes, serverless deployments (Azure/AWS)
8. Evaluation & Testing of Agentic Systems
- Designing evaluation frameworks for agents:
- Task success rate
- Cost, latency, and reliability
- Safety and hallucination detection
- Offline test harnesses and simulation environments
- A/B testing of prompts, tools, and agent strategies
9. Security, Safety & Responsible AI
- Secure tool execution and privilege control
- Prompt‑injection and jailbreak risk mitigation
- Data privacy and isolation in agent memory
- Responsible AI practices:
- Bias awareness
- Explainability of agent decisions
- Human‑in‑the‑loop escalation patterns
10. Data & Integration Skills
- Integration with:
- Enterprise systems (CRM, ERP, databases)
- Web services, internal APIs, and SaaS tools
- Working knowledge of:
- SQL / NoSQL databases
- Event‑driven systems and message queues (plus)
11. Cloud & Platform Expertise
- Strong experience with at least one cloud platform:
- Azure (preferred for enterprise agentic AI), AWS, or GCP
- Managed AI services, identity & access, secrets management
- Cost optimization for LLM‑driven systems
12. Bonus / Advanced Skills (Nice to Have)
- Multi‑agent collaboration and negotiation
- Human‑AI collaboration patterns (copilots, supervisors)
- Reinforcement learning for agent policy optimization
- Experience building enterprise copilots or autonomous workflows
