Software Engineer – AI Agent Infrastructure

SignicatRotterdamHybridFull-time2 days ago

Signicat is seeking a Platform Engineer for its AI Foundations team to design and build an internal AI Software Factory, enabling autonomous AI agents to collaborate on software engineering tasks. The role involves building core services, APIs, and infrastructure on GCP and Kubernetes using Go, with a focus on orchestration, security, and distributed systems.

What you'll do

Build the AI Software Factory: Design and develop the core services, APIs, and infrastructure that enable AI agents to plan, execute, and collaborate on complex software engineering tasks.
Orchestrate intelligent agents: Build systems that coordinate multiple specialized agents, manage dependencies, schedule work, and support long-running, asynchronous workflows.
Design reliable agent runtimes: Develop secure, stateful execution environments that manage agent lifecycles, context, tool invocations, retries, recovery, and execution isolation.
Make autonomous execution safe: Implement sandboxing, fine-grained permissions, and security boundaries that allow agents to interact with code, tools, and internal systems without compromising security.
Connect agents to the real world: Integrate LLMs, development workflows, internal APIs, and external tools through secure, extensible interfaces and emerging standards such as MCP and A2A.
Enable human-agent collaboration: Help create systems where engineers can guide, supervise, and collaborate with autonomous agents, maintaining control over important decisions.
Shape the future of AI engineering: Evaluate emerging technologies, challenge existing approaches, experiment with new architectural patterns, and help define how autonomous software engineering evolves at Signicat.
Solve interesting engineering problems: Apply your understanding of distributed systems, concurrency, fault tolerance, and software architecture to challenges that don't always have established solutions.
