Role Overview

Key Responsibilities

• **Agent Development & Integration:**
• Design, implement, and integrate microservices for the Predict, Fraud, Budget, Scheduling, and Integration agents; connect via REST APIs, Maximo Integration Framework (MIF), and event-driven systems (Kafka/MQTT).
• **Architecture & Deployment:**
• Design and manage cloud/on-premise backends, CI/CD pipelines, and containerized services to ensure high availability, reliability, and scalability of agent operations.
• **Automation & Workflows:**
• Implement end-to-end automation in Maximo (e.g., auto-work order creation, 3-way invoice matching, dynamic scheduling, and cost re-forecasting) using workflow engines and intelligent triggers.
• **Web/Mobile Integration:**
• Develop interactive dashboards and mobile interfaces that visualize agent outputs (e.g., asset health indices, SLA risk scores, anomaly detection results) with human-in-the-loop feedback controls.
• **Security & Compliance:**
• Enforce enterprise security standards, including Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), Segregation of Duties (SoD), encrypted communications, audit logging, and data privacy policies.
• **Performance & Reliability:**
• Optimize service performance and latency for predictive and scheduling agents, apply observability tools (logging, metrics, tracing), and implement blue-green deployment strategies and uptime monitoring.
