The opportunity
We’re big believers in the power of IRL, so for most roles we ask Campers to work from their local Culture Amp office an average of 2 days a week to unlock connection, pace and culture together.
What you'll do
Play a lead role in setting the technical direction for the Agent Hub’s: foundational capabilities, including agent execution, orchestration, MCP tools, identity, context and knowledge, evaluation, and operational visibility.
Design, build, and operate autonomous agents, workflows, and integrations for: internal use cases — choosing thoughtfully between deterministic automation, simple tools, single agents, and multi-agent systems.
Build reusable MCP servers and tool patterns, including clear schemas,: credential brokering, identity-aware access, per-call authorisation, and auditable interactions with systems of record.
Shape the knowledge and context layer that grounds agents in Culture Amp’s: organisation-specific information, using appropriate combinations of document retrieval, vector search, knowledge graphs, registries, and semantic models.
Establish the engineering practices that move solutions from laptop-based: experimentation to managed services: secure deployment, testing, evaluation, observability, cost awareness, reliability, and safe human escalation.
Partner with teams across the business to identify high-value problems, shape: loosely defined opportunities, and deliver solutions that people actually adopt.
What they're looking for
- Apply and evolve Culture Amp’s agent registry, risk framework, and governance: patterns so every deployed agent has clear ownership, purpose, authority, data access, and accountability.
- Raise the capability of the wider function through coaching, architecture: guidance, reusable patterns, documentation, and playbooks — enabling teams to move quickly within well-designed guardrails.
- Strong backend engineering skills (ideally in TypeScript and/or Python),: including APIs, testing, service design, and building production systems or integrations end to end.
- Hands-on experience delivering and operating cloud-native solutions in AWS,: with a strong understanding of security, identity, permissions, secrets, and reliability in production.
