IT Officer, Business Solutions I (Agentic AI Developer)

World Bank Group - WBG

Staff Closes 09 Jul 2026 5 days left

Overview

The Agentic AI Developer will design and implement production-grade agentic AI systems that integrate large language models (LLMs) with tools, data sources, and enterprise workflows.


Key Responsibilities
  • Architect and implement multi-agent and single-agent AI systems using frameworks such as LangGraph, LangChain, AutoGen, CrewAI, or equivalent.
  • Design agent reasoning loops, tool-calling mechanisms, memory management strategies, and orchestration logic.
  • Develop agents capable of interacting with APIs, databases, document repositories, and internal WBG systems.
  • Implement retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipelines to ground agents in institutional knowledge and internal data.
  • Integrate leading LLM providers (Anthropic Claude, OpenAI GPT, Google Gemini) into agent workflows via APIs.
  • Design and refine system prompts, few-shot examples, and chain-of-thought instructions to guide agent behavior reliably.
  • Implement guardrails, output validation, and fallback logic to ensure safe and accurate agent responses.
  • Build custom tools and function-calling interfaces that agents can invoke.
  • Ensure tool schemas are well-defined, type-safe, and robust against edge cases.
  • Integrate with internal WBG platforms and data sources as required.
  • Design evaluation frameworks to assess agent performance, accuracy, groundedness, and safety.
  • Conduct red-teaming and adversarial testing to identify failure modes and jailbreak risks.
  • Establish benchmark datasets and automated testing pipelines for regression monitoring.
  • Package and deploy agentic applications on cloud infrastructure (Azure, GCP, or equivalent).
  • Implement observability and monitoring for agent behavior, latency, and token usage.
  • Maintain CI/CD pipelines for continuous delivery of agent updates.
  • Produce technical documentation covering architecture decisions, agent workflows, and API specifications.
  • Provide knowledge transfer sessions and code walkthroughs for internal engineering teams.
  • Contribute to internal guidelines and best practices for agentic AI development at WBG.
Required Experience
  • Minimum of 5 years of relevant experience with a Master's degree; or a minimum of 7 years of relevant experience with a Bachelor's degree.
  • Minimum 5–7 years of software development experience, with at least 2 years focused on AI/ML systems.
  • Demonstrated hands-on experience building agentic or LLM-powered applications in production environments.
  • Experience with at least one agentic framework (LangChain, LangGraph, AutoGen, CrewAI, Semantic Kernel, or similar).
  • Strong understanding of LLM APIs, function/tool calling, RAG architectures, and vector databases (e.g., Pinecone, Weaviate, pgvector).
  • Experience with cloud platforms (Azure preferred; GCP or AWS acceptable).
  • Familiarity with containerization (Docker, Kubernetes) and CI/CD practices.
  • Prior experience working in international organizations or development finance institutions (preferred).
  • Familiarity with knowledge management systems, document intelligence, or enterprise search (preferred).
