Senior Agentic Software Engineer

EPAM Systems is a global technology services company delivering software solutions and international projects for leading brands. The Senior Agentic Software Engineer will design and deliver complex full-stack features for a travel platform, use AI coding tools and agentic workflows to accelerate development, and contribute to cloud-native architecture. The role also involves validating AI-generated code, configuring MCP integrations, improving engineering operations, and mentoring junior engineers.

Responsibilities:

• Design, develop and deliver complex features and services for our travel platform as a key contributor on a full-stack product development team
• Leverage agentic coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot) in daily development workflows to accelerate delivery and improve code quality
• Review and validate AI-generated code for correctness, security, performance and maintainability, helping to set quality standards within the team
• Revitalize services and architectures that have outlasted their original implementations through refactoring, migration and cloud-native design patterns
• Author clean, testable, peer-reviewed and optimized high-performance code, whether written manually or collaboratively with AI agents
• Build and improve internal agentic workflows that automate repetitive engineering tasks such as testing, documentation and code review triage
• Configure Model Context Protocol (MCP) integrations that connect AI agents to internal tools, data sources and platform services
• Contribute to improving development and operations of an increasingly distributed architecture across cloud platforms
• Advocate for change in quality, durability and technical debt reduction by working with Product Owners, Engineering Managers, Product Designers and other key partners
• Safeguard the privacy, security and trust of our members' sensitive data throughout our implementations, in partnership with our Risk and Security teams
• Participate in establishing and meeting backend and system SLOs to protect us through future growth
• Mentor junior engineers on effective development practices, code quality and productive use of AI-assisted development tools

Requirements:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering or equivalent experience
• 5–8 years of full-stack development experience building web applications and services
• 2+ years of hands-on experience using AI coding agents (e.g., Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot) in professional development workflows
• Strong background in building modern web applications, RESTful API design and microservices architecture and patterns
• Proficiency in two or more of the following: TypeScript/JavaScript, Python, C#/.NET
• Deep expertise in modern frontend frameworks such as React, Next.js, Vue or Angular
• Experience architecting and deploying applications on cloud platforms (AWS, Azure or GCP)
• Demonstrated capability to use AI coding agents to accelerate development, improve code quality and automate engineering workflows
• Skills in prompt engineering techniques for code generation, debugging, testing and documentation
• Working knowledge of the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and experience using or configuring MCP servers to connect AI agents with internal tools and services
• Excellent communication skills, strong working relationships and a high degree of team collaboration
• Familiarity with Azure AI Foundry, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), LangChain and graph-based data technologies (GraphRAG, GraphDB)
• Background in real-time streaming or distributed messaging platforms such as Redis, Kafka or RabbitMQ
• Expertise in containerization (Docker), CI/CD pipelines and infrastructure-as-code tools with modern DevOps practices
• Familiarity with modern project management and collaboration tools (Jira, ADO, GitHub Projects or similar) and Agile software delivery
• Capability to evaluate emerging AI development tools and stay current with the evolving agentic coding landscape
