Senior Agentic Software Engineer

In VIS (Vehicle Information Solutions) an ETAS organization we are seeking an experienced and innovative Senior Agentic Software Engineer to develop and deploy our next-generation production-grade AI this role you will be responsible for orchestrating robust Python-based back-end architecture integrating state-of-the-art Large Language Models (LLMs) optimizing high-performance vector databases and deploying scalable secure APIs natively on Microsoft Azure. You will work closely with our Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM) customers to agree on new requirements develop plans to deliver solutions using Agile processes and ensure strict adherence to software quality standards throughout the development lifecycle.

VIS is a global ETAS organization supporting leading automotive OEMs and dealer networks with service information wiring diagrams technical knowledge and digital aftersales solutions. VIS is transforming from a traditional technical-content provider into a Vehicle Intelligence partner leveraging AI automation and automotive expertise to support software-defined vehicles and future workshop experience.

Key Responsibilities

• Own problems end-to-end: from understanding the users needs through architecture implementation verification and operation.
• Deliver implementation primarily through AI coding agents: translate intent into precise specs constraints and acceptance criteria and supervise multiple agent work streams in parallel.
• Apply human judgment where it matters most: architecture decisions trade-offs edge cases and critical review of agent output - accountable for correctness security and maintainability of everything merged.
• Design for verifiability: tests typed interfaces CI gates and evals that allow agent-produced code to be proven correct rather than trusted.
• Work across frontend backend infrastructure DevOps and data topics as the problem requires.
• Continuously evolve the personal and team development workflow as models and agent capabilities advance.

Qualifications :

• Thorough understanding of software engineering fundamentals - architecture system design testing strategy debugging.
• Infrastructure and DevOps competence: cloud platforms CI/CD pipelines containerization infrastructure as code and operating what is built.
• Excellent communication skills: expressing intent requirements and constraints clearly and unambiguously in writing and in discussion.  Proven ability to build relationships with customers preferably in the automotive industry.
• Strong abstraction skills: decomposing complex problems choosing the right level of abstraction and recognizing patterns that generalize across domains.
• Hands-on production experience with agentic coding tools (e.g. Claude Code GitHub Copilot agents) including running several agents in parallel and running agents unattended in automated pipelines.
• Product thinking: able to translate user and business intent into specifications precise enough for autonomous execution.
• Prompt and context engineering: writing instructions specs and repo conventions that agents follow reliably.
• Strong verification mindset - treats generated code as untrusted until independently checked.
• Adaptability: productive in unfamiliar languages frameworks and domains with security awareness for AI-assisted development (secret handling prompt injection supply-chain risks).
• Bachelors Degree in Software Engineering Computer Science or similar field of study.
