A Day in the Life: In the position of AI Engineer, you will build, test, and run production artificial intelligence (AI) agents, Model Context Protocol (MCP) tools, and integrations on Monster's AI platform, working under the technical direction of the AI Architect and alongside the Sr. AI Solution Engineer. Write pro-code solutions in Python and TypeScript using OpenAI and Claude models, Microsoft Foundry, and Copilot Studio; build automated tests and evaluations into every release; and keep live agents reliable, secure, and cost-efficient. Turn designs into working software quickly and add reusable components that make each new solution faster to deliver. The Impact You'll Make: Build Production Agents — Build and ship agents and automated workflows in Python and TypeScript using OpenAI / Azure OpenAI and Claude models, Microsoft Foundry, and Copilot Studio, following the AI Architect's reference patterns and security standards. MCP Servers & Tools — Build and maintain MCP servers and tools that connect agents to Salesforce, SAP, Workday, SharePoint, and Microsoft Fabric data; publish them to the shared tool registry with schemas, versioning, and documentation. Testing, Evaluation & CI/CD — Write automated tests and evaluation suites (accuracy, groundedness, safety, tool-call correctness) and run them in Continuous Integration / Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) pipelines so every release is gated on quality. Integrations & Orchestration — Develop REST, GraphQL, webhook, and event-based integrations, and orchestration with Power Automate, Salesforce Flow, Workato, or MuleSoft, with proper error handling and retries. Observability & Production Support — Instrument agents with logging, tracing, and telemetry (e.g., Application Insights / Log Analytics); monitor reliability, latency, and token cost; troubleshoot and resolve production issues. Security & Responsible AI — Apply least-privilege access, secrets management, and prompt-injection defenses; follow Responsible AI (RAI), privacy, and security standards; document data use, risks, and mitigations. Reusable Components — Package proven code into reusable agent templates, prompt libraries, connectors, and MCP tools that the team and business units can reuse. Collaboration & Documentation — Work with the Sr. AI Solution Engineer on business requirements and the AI Data Engineer on data needs; write runbooks and technical documentation; use AI coding agents (e.g., Cursor, Claude Code) daily to accelerate delivery.
