About the Role
As Agentic Platform Engineer, you will be responsible for building and operating the enterprise agentic engineering platform that enables AI agents to safely plan, reason, use tools and execute work across Travel Counsellors' technology estate. 
 
This is an agentic engineering role with strong Platform foundations. Your primary focus will be the design, development and production operation of autonomous and semi-autonomous agents for software delivery, platform operations, service reliability, security and engineering productivity. You will create reusable agent capabilities, orchestration patterns, tool integrations, memory and retrieval services, evaluation frameworks and governance controls that allow teams to adopt agentic automation safely at scale. 
 
You will treat agents as production software: versioned, tested, observable, secure, cost-controlled and accountable. Working across Platform Engineering, Architecture, Security, Data and product teams, you will turn high-value operational workflows into reliable agentic products with clear human oversight, measurable outcomes and safe rollback.
