Senior Software Engineer, Agentic Platform - Moveworks

• What you get to do in this role:
• Agent orchestration engine — A state machine that manages long-running agent sessions, coordinating planning, execution, and user interaction across multiple LLM calls and tool invocations
• Distributed session management — Lease-based ownership using DynamoDB conditional writes, heartbeat protocols, and crash recovery via checkpointing
• Event-driven message pipeline — SQS FIFO queues for ordered delivery, Kafka consumers for event processing, and real-time streaming via gRPC and Socket.IO
• Observability infrastructure — OpenTelemetry instrumentation, distributed trace context propagation across async boundaries, custom span lifecycle management for sessions that span minutes
• Caching and state layers — Redis, DynamoDB KV stores with per-org/per-bot scoping, batch read optimization, and hot-reload configuration
• To be successful in this role you have:
• You should have deep experience in at least 3 of these areas:
• Distributed systems: consistency models, idempotency, exactly-once delivery, distributed locking/leasing
• Concurrent/async programming: Python asyncio, Go goroutines, structured concurrency, cancellation handling
• Event-driven architectures: message queues (SQS, Kafka), pub/sub, backpressure, delivery guarantees
• Database systems for infrastructure: DynamoDB (conditional writes, transactions), Redis (connection pooling, pub/sub)
• Observability: OpenTelemetry, distributed tracing, span context propagation, Prometheus metrics
• gRPC/protobuf: streaming RPCs, service interface design, error handling patterns
• 5+ years building production backend/infrastructure systems
• Strong in Python or Go (ideally both)
• Experience designing and operating systems that handle real traffic at scale
• Comfort with ambiguity — these are novel problems without textbook solutions
• Work Personas
