## Description

We are seeking a Sr Engineer to join our Agentic Analytics team at Target. The successful candidate will help design and build the software and platform capabilities behind Agent Fetch and the broader agentic data platform.

The Agentic Analytics team is building the next generation of AI-enabled analytics and data access at Target. Our work goes beyond traditional Gen AI and natural-language querying. We are building an enterprise agentic analytics layer that connects people and agents to trusted analytical data, governed business metrics, contextual insights, and analytical workflows.

As a Sr Engineer on this team, you will work across agent orchestration, data and metadata access, semantic models, evaluation, observability, security, and the services that allow both users and other agents to safely interact with enterprise analytical data.

This is a highly collaborative engineering role on a team working in a rapidly evolving technical space. You will be expected to learn unfamiliar domains quickly, work independently when appropriate, pair with others when useful, and iterate as both the technology and our product strategy evolve.

**Responsibilities:**

- Design and build software and platform capabilities for Agent Fetch and the agentic data platform

- Work across agent orchestration, data and metadata access, semantic models, evaluation, observability, security, and services

- Collaborate with team members to deliver high-quality solutions

- Learn unfamiliar domains quickly and work independently when needed

**Requirements:**

- 4-year degree in Quantitative disciplines (Science, Tech, Engineering, Mathematics) or equivalent industry experience

- 3+ years of experience designing, developing, testing, and supporting software applications or platform services

- Proficiency in Python or Java with the ability to become productive in additional languages and frameworks

- Experience with AI agents, LLM applications, tool use, planning, or multi-step agent workflows

- Experience with agent orchestration frameworks such as LangGraph

- Evaluation and observability for LLM- or agent-based systems

- Knowledge of retrieval, context management, structured tool interfaces, or MCP-based architectures

- Experience with data platforms, analytical data systems, metadata, lineage, or data governance

- Experience with semantic layers, governed metrics, LookML, Power BI semantic models, dbt or similar technologies

- Demonstrated experience with distributed systems, event-driven architectures, APIs, or platform engineering

- Experience with security and authorization patterns for data- or AI-enabled applications

- Strong problem-solving skills, including the ability to diagnose complex behavior, identify root causes, test hypotheses, and iteratively improve a solution

**Benefits:**

- Competitive salary ($98,000 - $176,000 per year)

- Comprehensive health benefits and programs

- 401(k) and employee discount

- Short-term disability, long-term disability, paid sick leave, paid national holidays, and paid vacation

- Opportunities for growth and development

**Work Arrangement:**

- Hybrid/Flex for Your Day work arrangement

- Core role will need to be performed both onsite at the Target HQ MN location and virtually
