Senior Agentic AI Specialist

The MFM IT team has a long history of delivering and maintaining core business systems in a mid-sized Property & Casualty insurance environment. As we expand our development team and adopt new AI development tools, we are making a deliberate investment in building this capability correctly from the start. As we begin to build agentic AI capabilities within our enterprise system, we are looking for an experienced engineer with strong knowledge of agentic AI systems to help guide this effort.

The Senior Agentic AI Specialist will work closely with MFM’s Principal Architect, who leads overall platform architecture, and partners with senior developers to design, implement, and improve agent-based solutions. This role will bring specialized expertise in areas where we are still developing depth, including agent orchestration, retrieval pipelines, LLM evaluation, and prompt design. This is an ongoing platform effort, not a one-time project. The work will evolve over time as we expand capabilities, integrate new tools, and improve system quality.

Our core systems are built on a Microsoft/.NET stack. As we develop our agentic AI capabilities, we expect to leverage cloud-based tooling (likely within Azure) where appropriate. We are pragmatic about using the right tools for the problem, while maintaining alignment with our existing platform and operational requirements.

• RAG Pipeline Engineering:
• Improve retrieval quality by working with chunking strategies, embeddings, search methods, and metadata filtering. Support onboarding of new knowledge sources.
• Quality & Hallucination Reduction:
• Help reduce incorrect or unsupported outputs through system design, testing, and monitoring. Apply practical approaches across prompts, retrieval, and model behavior.
• Evaluation & Testing:
• Develop and maintain evaluation approaches to measure output quality, including relevance and accuracy. Support regression testing and identify failure patterns.
• Prompt Engineering:
• Create and maintain prompts for different agents. Diagnose unexpected behavior and develop reusable patterns where appropriate.
• Tool Integration:
• Support integration with internal systems and APIs. Help manage tool access and ensure reliable execution and error handling.
• Observability & Operations:
• Contribute to logging, tracing, and monitoring. Support analysis of system behavior, cost, and performance in production.
• Governance & Configuration:
• Work with configuration across agents, prompts, and models. Ensure changes are version-controlled and reviewed.
• Developer Support:
• Work with other developers to share knowledge, review designs, and establish consistent approaches.
• Research & Evaluation:
• Stay current with new models and tools. Evaluate them in a structured way and recommend adoption where appropriate.
