The Full-stack AI Engineer role at Light & Wonder focuses on building production-grade agentic AI workflows end to end, from conversational experiences through orchestration and integrations. The team is centered on Microsoft Agent Framework (.NET), Azure OpenAI, and data capabilities across Snowflake, Databricks, and Microsoft Fabric, with an emphasis on reliability through testing and evaluation.
Responsibilities
- Deliver production-grade agent workflows end to end, covering conversational UI, orchestration logic, and tool integrations.
- Build embedded and intuitive agent interfaces using AG-UI and CopilotKit to support a refined product experience.
- Implement robust orchestration with Microsoft Agent Framework (.NET), including tool calling, multi-agent patterns, and human-in-the-loop handoffs.
- Integrate with low-code platforms such as N8N for workflow edge cases to accelerate delivery while maintaining reliability.
- Develop comprehensive behavioral, regression, and adversarial evaluations for workflows before they ship to production.
- Collaborate with Data Engineering on consumable data surfaces, and with Platform Engineering on deployment and observability standards.
- Contribute to shared platform primitives, reusable templates, and rigorous code review practices across the team.
Requirements
- 3+ years of professional software engineering experience, with meaningful production depth across front-end and back-end development.
- Strong proficiency in C# and .NET for server-side work, including modern .NET (8 / 9 / 10), async patterns, and dependency injection. This is required.
- Strong proficiency in TypeScript and React for front-end work.
- Experience shipping at least one production system that uses LLMs end to end, with real users, real reliability constraints, and real evaluations. Multi-step orchestration or agent experience is preferred over single-completion-call work.
- Demonstrated ability to learn unfamiliar frameworks quickly and produce production-grade code during that process (assessed in the technical screen).
- Strong grasp of API design, authentication, async patterns, and the tradeoffs between streaming and request-response.
- Working knowledge of Azure primitives including App Service / AKS / Functions, Key Vault, API Management, and Entra ID, with comfort writing IaC using Bicep.
- Experience writing evaluations for non-deterministic systems, including behavioral tests, regression harnesses, and human-rated samples.
