About Lyzr AI
Lyzr is building the foundation layer for agentic AI systems — making it radically simpler to build, deploy, and scale intelligent agents in production.
We believe the future of software is agent-first. Not wrappers. Not demos. Real systems that reason, act, observe, and improve over time.
We’re looking for Core Engineers who want to work at the deepest layers of agentic infrastructure — the runtime, orchestration, memory, tool execution, and guardrails that power real-world AI systems.
If you’re excited by how agents actually work under the hood, this role is for you.
Role Overview
As a Core Engineer at Lyzr, you’ll work on the heart of the platform — the framework and services that enable agents to plan, execute, collaborate, and operate safely at scale.
You’ll collaborate closely with product, infra, and leadership to ensure architectural clarity, technical rigor, and production-grade reliability across everything we ship.
What You’ll Work On
Build and evolve the Lyzr agent runtime (planning & execution loops, memory systems, tool/function calling, multi-agent coordination)
Develop core agent services (event-driven orchestration, RAG pipelines, Text-to-SQL, tool invocation layers)
Design secure tool execution environments and sandboxing mechanisms
Implement model & data integrations (LLM providers, embeddings, vector stores, connectors, RAG pipelines)
Build observability & guardrails (tracing, token-level logging, eval harnesses, safety filters, policy enforcement)
Ship multi-tenant SaaS and enterprise / on-prem deployments with RBAC
Own scalability & resilience (profiling, load testing, autoscaling, failure handling)
Contribute to open-source components and help build a strong developer ecosystem around Lyzr
Platform Engineering Fundamentals
Strong hands-on backend engineering experience
Excellent command of Python, FastAPI, MongoDB, and Docker
Proven experience building and scaling systems from scratch
Solid grasp of distributed systems, system design, and API architecture
AWS experience required (Azure is a plus)
Product-minded engineers with strong ownership and initiative
Clear communicator and collaborative problem-solver
Staff Core Engineer
Designs and owns entire complex systems end-to-end
Deep expertise in distributed systems and scalable architectures
Owns core agent architecture: orchestration, tool execution, memory, RAG, Text2SQL, guardrails
Strong cloud, CI/CD, monitoring, logging, and tracing experience
Research-driven mindset — pushes the platform forward with new ideas
Mentors engineers, leads design reviews, sets quality standards
Demonstrated track record of building impactful systems
Senior Core Engineer
Leads development of key systems within the agent stack
Strong system design and clean architecture instincts
Ships high-quality components quickly and reliably
Mentors junior engineers and collaborates deeply across teams

Core Engineer
Ships well-scoped features with quality and speed
Strong Python fundamentals (Go or Rust is a bonus)

Why Lyzr?
You’ll work on real agentic systems, not demos
You’ll shape the core intelligence layer, not just applications
You’ll have ownership, trust, and freedom to build
You’ll influence how enterprises adopt agentic AI globally
