Join our Data Science team and help shape SIXT's Customer Service Transformation. Our AI assistant CARA authenticates customers, manages real reservations, and handles policy questions across 10+ markets and 7 languages. She's a production multi-agent system with write access to SIXT's booking platform, running on chat, app, WhatsApp, and soon voice. Your work will impact millions of customers and deliver measurable business results.
YOURS TO OWN
You own agents end to end: prompt, orchestration graph, tools, evals, deployment, dashboard. You write the agent logic and watch your own traces in production
You translate business problems into agent capabilities, working with product, business and customer service stakeholders to define tool calls and sub-agents, and you build for real transactions with step-up authentication, guardrails, idempotent case handling, and handover into Salesforce and Genesys
You make quality measurable, extending our evaluation harness with LLM-as-judge rubrics, tool-trajectory assertions and prompt A/B suites that gate every release
You engineer for cost and latency as much as accuracy: multi-provider model routing with fallbacks, prompt caching, small models where small models win
You collaborate across the stack with software engineers, data scientists, MLOps and platform teams, balancing bespoke agent logic against reusable platform capability, and you raise the floor around you by sharing agentic and LLM engineering knowledge with colleagues and helping other teams integrate Agentic AI into their products
You work with the following stack context: Python with LangGraph and LangChain, deployed as containerised agents on AWS Bedrock AgentCore with MCP sub-agents and OpenAPI tool federation. Multi-provider fallback chains with Anthropic and OpenAI LLMs behind Bedrock Guardrails. Next: CARA for Voice
YOUR SKILLS MATTER
Engineering foundation You're an engineer first with strong, hands-on software engineering, real production ownership, excellent Python skills, and solid AWS cloud experience
Agentic experience You have built tool-calling agents with LangGraph/LangChain or equivalent frameworks and shipped them to actual users rather than keeping them in notebooks
Model and prompt expertise You're hands-on with frontier and open models like Anthropic Claude, OpenAI, AWS Bedrock, and open-source models such as Llama, with a clear point of view on when to use which, and you treat prompt engineering as an engineering discipline: versioned, reviewed, evaluated, A/B tested
LLMOps paradigm You know and have applied LLMOps: tracing, evals, guardrails, token and latency budgets, continuous integration and deployment
Bonus skills MCP, real-time voice AI (WebRTC, SIP, streaming STT/TTS), event-streaming pipelines, TypeScript/React, or contact-centre platforms like Genesys and Salesforce add value
Motivation and communication You're extremely motivated, passionate about learning, bring a genuine can-do attitude, communicate fluently in English, and appreciate cultural diversity
