Help shape the next generation of digital services at ABB Electrification Service Division. We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer - Agentic AI to unlock agentic AI capabilities across our digital port-folio and turn them into real customer value. In this role, you will help build intelligent systems that support customers in achieving their most important asset management goals: higher reliability, better predictability, greater availability, improved sustainability, and smarter lifecycle decisions. You will work at the intersection of AI, backend engineering, and enterprise integration to transform architec-tural designs into secure, scalable, production-ready solutions.

ABB’s digital and service portfolio is increasingly focused on customer experience, comprehensive as-set management, digital enablement, and sustainability outcomes. This role is a key enabler for trans-lating that portfolio direction into intelligent products and workflows that help customers reduce downtime, improve maintenance decisions, optimize operations, and extend asset life.

As a Senior Software Engineer - Agentic AI, you will build, integrate, and operate production-grade AI agents and agentic workflows across ABB ELSE digital services. You will own the engineering required to move beyond pilots into secure, reliable, enterprise-ready solutions. This includes agent orchestra-tion, enterprise tool integration, evaluation, monitoring, control mechanisms, and operational excel-lence. The role also has an important team uplift dimension: you will mentor colleagues and help raise the internal bar in agentic AI engineering.
 
The work model for the role is: hybrid #LI-hybrid

You will be mainly accountable for: 

• Develop AI agents and multi-step workflows that support ELSE digital service and asset management use cases.
• Turn solution designs into scalable, production-ready implementations across the ELSE landscape.
• Connect agent workflows with enterprise platforms, operational data, APIs, and digital tools used in ELSE services.
• Define effective patterns for tool use, context management, memory, orchestration, and workflow execution.
• Create evaluation and validation approaches to ensure agent quality, safety, accuracy, and performance in real use cases.
• Implement human approval flows, fallback mechanisms, and operational guardrails.
• Ensure production readiness through testing, monitoring, deployment automation, and controlled releases.
• Work closely with architects, product owners, data engineers, and software teams to deliver reliable, business-ready ELSE solutions. 

Qualifications for the role :

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Artificial Intelligence, Data Science, Information Technology, or a related technical field.
• 7+ years of experience in software engineering, including designing and delivering enterprise-grade backend and cloud-based solutions.
• 2-3+ years of hands-on experience building AI-powered applications, LLM-integrated systems, or agent-based workflows in production environments.
• Strong backend engineering skills, ideally in C#/.NET, with Python as a strong plus.
• Strong experience with APIs, Git, CI/CD, cloud deployment, and secure enterprise integration.
• Experience with agent evaluation, testing, verification, RAG, memory patterns, context man-agement, and agent control mechanisms.
• Experience monitoring and optimizing AI systems for reliability, performance, and cost.
• Understanding Microsoft enterprise security, compliance, and identity patterns, with the ability to collaborate effectively across technical and business teams and mentor colleagues.

Building a cleaner, smarter future takes all kinds of minds: the curious, the courageous, and the creative. That's why we welcome people from all backgrounds and experiences.
