**Core Responsibilities:**

- Design and implement Amazon Bedrock Agents, including a Supervisor Agent and domain-specific Sub-Agents.

- Develop Retrieval-Augmented Generation workflows using Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Bases and OpenSearch Serverless.

- Implement prompt engineering, agent routing, confidence logic, and low-confidence fallback behavior.

- Configure Bedrock Guardrails for PII redaction, prompt-injection detection, denied topics, content safety, and grounding evaluation.

- Build Lambda orchestration to connect Lex V2, Bedrock AgentCore, response generation, and human transfer decisions.

- Support session management, conversation context persistence, and cross-channel consistency for voice and chat.

- Integrate the GenAI stack with Amazon Connect, Salesforce, CloudWatch, DynamoDB, S3, SNS, IAM, and KMS.

- Lead AI testing, response quality tuning, grounding validation, and latency optimization across production-like scenarios.

**Required Qualifications:**

- Bachelor’s degree and 8+ years of relevant experience OR Masters degree with 6+ years of relevant experience.

- 8+ years of software engineering OR cloud development experience.

- At least 3 years of Generative AI OR LLM application development experience.

- Experience with APIs, distributed systems, and secure cloud architecture.

- Ability to work effectively in a regulated government environment.

- Ability to obtain and maintain a Public Trust security clearance.

- US Citizen.

**Preferred Qualifications:**

- AWS certifications such as AI Practitioner, Machine Learning Specialty, OR Solutions Architect Professional.

- Experience with Amazon Bedrock Agents, AgentCore Runtime, Guardrails, and Knowledge Bases.

- Experience with Claude models, agent frameworks, or multi-agent orchestration patterns.

- Familiarity with FedRAMP environments and government AI governance requirements.

- Experience with LangChain, Strands Agents, or other agent development frameworks.

**Success Measures:**

- Supervisor Agent and Sub-Agents are implemented and tested across HUD service domains.

- Responses are grounded, accurate, and safely filtered through Guardrails.

- Confidence scoring and fallback behavior support reliable human escalation.

- The GenAI platform is production-ready, maintainable, and compliant with security and privacy requirements.
