About the role
What You’ll Be Doing At Unlimit, backend engineering is evolving into agent engineering. You won’t simply write Java or Kotlin services. You will design and implement AI agents that build, refactor, test, and optimize those services — agents that actively participate in the software lifecycle rather than passively assisting it. Instead of creating microservices only for human consumption, you will architect systems that are self-describing, agent-consumable, and machine-operable by design. Your APIs will not just be called — they will be reasoned about. AI systems will understand their contracts, constraints, and behaviors. You will help construct a full pipeline from requirements to deployment, where validation agents automatically enforce PCI-DSS rules, regulatory constraints, scalability requirements, and architectural standards. Compliance will not be a checklist at the end — it will be continuously verified by intelligent systems embedded in the flow. And it won’t stop at build-time automation. You will develop autonomous monitoring agents capable of detecting anomalies, diagnosing root causes, and triggering corrective workflows in production environments operating at global financial scale. Traditional microservices will be redesigned into agent-ready execution units — modular, observable, introspectable components that machines can safely evolve. You will collaborate closely with DevOps, Data, and AI teams who are building their own agents, uniting these systems into a coordinated multi-agent ecosystem that powers our financial infrastructure. The outcome is simple but transformative: your code will not only serve production. It will serve the agents that run production.
