The Nine Hill Technologies team helps customers rapidly build innovative products that push automation and productivity to new levels for our customers. We value engineers who can solve hard problems and ship high-quality, creative solutions quickly.

We're looking for a strong software engineer with a focus on AI — ideally agentic AI systems — to join our team. The ideal candidate has a track record of building and shipping quality software, solid full-stack fundamentals, and hands-on experience designing systems where AI agents plan, reason, or take action autonomously.

Responsibilities

• Develop quality software and web applications end-to-end
• Optimize code and system architecture for performance, scalability, and maintainability
• Write and maintain automated tests, including for AI-driven components
• Write clean, maintainable, well-documented code
• Stay current on new AI methodologies, agent frameworks, and tools, and evaluate them for fit

Technologies (or eager to learn)

• LLM APIs and agent frameworks (e.g., LangChain, LlamaIndex, Anthropic/OpenAI APIs, or similar)
• Docker & Kubernetes
• AWS

Qualifications (no dealbreakers here)

• 5+ years of software development experience
• Experience building with LLMs or AI agents — production experience a plus, side projects count too
• Excellent problem-solving and debugging skills
• Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience in Computer Science or related field

Firm Qualification

* U.S. Citizen
