Job Summary Reporting to the Head of Data & Transformation, the Staff Data Engineer – Agentic Applications is a senior individual contributor responsible for designing, building and operating Python-based web applications, agentic workflows and supporting data services for Graphcore’s business teams. The role combines strong data engineering foundations with hands-on application development, using AI agents, trusted data and business system integrations to improve decision-making and automate operational workflows. Depending on the use case, you will either deliver applications end to end, using AI-assisted coding tools to build and maintain the front end, or own the backend and enable business colleagues to create and look after their own front ends. In both approaches, you will help establish clear ownership, secure interfaces and appropriate engineering controls so applications remain reliable, maintainable and supportable. Working closely with engineers, analysts and business stakeholders, you will take solutions from initial requirements through to production, contribute to the evolution of the underlying data platform and provide technical leadership through design reviews, code reviews and mentoring. The Data & Analytics team enables better decision-making across Graphcore by building trusted data foundations, scalable platforms and high-quality data products. The team works across a broad range of business and technical domains, partnering with colleagues throughout the company to improve access to reliable information, strengthen operational insight and support efficient, data-informed ways of working. Within this team, the Staff Data Engineer – Agentic Applications turns these foundations into practical business applications and automated workflows. The role also enables colleagues outside engineering to participate in application development, supported by reusable services, clear guidance and appropriate governance.
Чем предстоит заниматься
Build business-facing applications. Design, develop and operate production-ready Python web applications that help business teams access trusted data, complete tasks and improve operational workflows
Develop agentic capabilities. Build applications and workflows that connect AI agents to approved tools, APIs, datasets and business systems, with clear boundaries on what agents can access and do
Translate business needs into working solutions. Partner with analysts, engineers and business stakeholders to understand user needs, identify appropriate opportunities for automation and take applications from prototype through to supported production services
Deliver end-to-end applications where appropriate. Use AI-assisted coding tools to build and maintain front ends alongside Python backend services, taking responsibility for the quality, testing, security and maintainability of generated code
Enable business-owned front ends. Where business teams develop and maintain their own interfaces, own the backend and provide documented APIs, reusable templates, examples and practical coaching so colleagues can work effectively with AI-assisted coding tools
Establish clear ownership and support arrangements. Agree responsibilities for application changes, testing, releases and ongoing support, including appropriate review and deployment controls for business-maintained front ends
Build secure, reusable backend services. Design APIs and application services that enforce authentication, authorisation, input validation and business rules, keeping secrets and sensitive operations within controlled backend systems
Engineer reliable agentic workflows. Implement appropriate evaluation, monitoring, audit trails and safeguards, including constrained tool permissions, human approval for consequential actions and safe handling of failures or unreliable model outputs
Maintain strong data foundations. Design, build and enhance Python-based batch and streaming pipelines, trusted datasets and reusable data models that support applications, analytics, reporting and operational workloads
Own key platform components. Take ownership of relevant backend and data-platform services, using AWS services including S3, Lambda, Aurora PostgreSQL, Athena, Glue and Redshift to deliver secure, resilient and cost-effective solutions
Enable safe, repeatable delivery. Build and maintain orchestration, CI/CD workflows, automated testing, deployment processes, monitoring and operational support for applications and data workflows
Improve resilience and performance. Apply robust error handling, idempotent processing, retry and recovery mechanisms, and backfill or replay capabilities to improve reliability, scalability and operational performance
Provide technical leadership. Review designs and code, mentor engineers and guide business application builders, helping raise engineering quality across both manually written and AI-generated software
Improve shared capabilities. Identify opportunities to simplify delivery, reuse application patterns and enhance platform capabilities, contributing to technical roadmaps and engineering practices across the Data & Analytics team
