Smartsheet, Bangalore, INDIA +1
What you will do
- Own the target-state architecture for Smartsheet's AI platform, defining the standards that bind Data, Agents, Knowledge Graph, Context Graph into one coherent system.
- Set the architecture for the agent harness and sub-agent framework including orchestration, lifecycle, hand-off contracts, Evals (Offline and Online) and capability-tier classification used across all agent teams.
- Design and own schema/ontology, ingestion and freshness pipelines, and the retrieval and grounding patterns that keep agent responses reliable.
- Build and maintain a reference agent framework that teams fork or extend, so no team re-solves orchestration, tracing, or deployment from scratch.
- Author and publish a shared skills and tools library with clear interface contracts and a versioning model any team can build on.
- Stand up fast, slim prototypes to de-risk architecture decisions (new sub-agent patterns, retrieval strategies, partner capabilities) before teams commit a roadmap to them, and own the criteria for promoting a prototype into a supported, shared capability.
