Avalara is looking to advance its Content Engineering mission by leading the charge toward autonomous content management powered by AI agents and generative AI technologies, transforming how Avalara sources, understands, and manages global compliance content.
Requirements
- 8+ years of experience building scalable, production-grade backend systems and APIs
- Proficiency in C-Sharp and .NET, with deep experience designing and implementing backend services and microservices
- Proficiency in React, with experience building responsive, interactive user interfaces
- Experience generative AI features in the UI (e.g., suggestions, auto-updates, prompt confirmations)
- Experience building agentic or autonomous workflows, especially in systems that detect, decide, and act with minimal human input
- Experience with event-driven and distributed system architectures
- Hands-on experience with CI/CD pipelines and modern DevOps workflows
Responsibilities
- You will build a network of intelligent AI agents that distinct content management tasks and collaborating to achieve end-to-end automation.
- Develop scalable backend APIs and microservices using the .NET stack; integrate with MCP servers and event-driven content pipelines
- Develop an orchestration layer that coordinates agentic workflows, including stale content detection, version reconciliation, and update scheduling
- Toward a autonomous content system by minimizing manual steps and allowing human review only when needed
- Build analytics, logging, and feedback loops to improve agent accuracy and reduce false positives
- Build responsive, intelligent front-end interfaces (React) that surface agent recommendations, resolve conflicts, and support human-in-the-loop overrides
- Embed generative AI logic in the UX: draft suggestions, auto-populate updates, prompt confirmation, and explain agent decisions
Other
- Bachelor's degree in computer science or a related field (or equivalent experience)
- Mentor junior engineers and contribute to team knowledge sharing and best practices
- Be a technical lead on complex projects, providing architectural guidance and hands-on implementation
- This is a remote position
- Avalara strongly supports diversity, equity, and inclusion, and is committed to integrating them into our business practices and our organizational culture
