Job Description
What is the opportunity?
The Agent Lead sits at the forefront of transforming Financial Advisor productivity through agentic AI workflows—bridging business problems with intelligent automation. This is a high-ambiguity, rapid experimentation role where you'll define how vendor agents, enterprise frameworks, and internally developed agents coexist and interoperate within a governed ecosystem. This is not a pure engineering role—it's a product-minded builder role that shapes, validates, and scales agentic patterns reusable across Wealth Management.
What will you do?
- Partner directly with Financial Advisors, field leadership, and business stakeholders to identify high-value agentic workflow opportunities and evaluate when AI is the right solution vs. deterministic automation
- Lead rapid POC development cycles with authority to "fail fast / scale fast," designing multi-agent interactions across vendor agents (CRM/Agentforce), enterprise agents, and native/internal agents
- Act as Product Owner for agentic workflows—owning use case shaping through validated solution patterns, defining success metrics, and driving iteration based on advisor feedback and usage telemetry
- Establish reusable agent design patterns including prompting strategies, orchestration, memory models, tool usage, and escalation paths in collaboration with AI Engineering
- Engage with enterprise stakeholders (Borealis, architecture, and platform teams) to align with approved agentic frameworks, standards, and governance requirements
- Manage and develop Context Engineers/Prompt Engineers, establishing best practices in context design, retrieval strategies, and agent behavior tuning
- Travel (~25%) to branches and field locations to observe advisor workflows, identify friction points, validate usability, and drive adoption of agentic solutions
What do you need to succeed?
Must-have:
- 8–10 years total engineering experience — with 2–3+ years specifically building agentic or LLM systems (not just prototypes)
- Hands-on RAG architecture — chunking tradeoffs, retrieval failures, evaluation
- Built or extended tool integration layers connecting LLM agents to external systems
- Strong Python backend — FastAPI, async, Pydantic, streaming responses
- Proven experience building and deploying agentic AI solutions (multi-agent systems, orchestration frameworks, tool-using agents)
- Strong understanding of agent frameworks, architectures, memory models, tool integration, and event-driven agents
- Demonstrated ability to operate as a builder + product owner hybrid with strong judgment on when to use AI vs. when not to
- Experience designing workflow-driven automation and working across business, engineering, and enterprise governance functions
- Leadership experience managing technical talent and excellent stakeholder engagement skills for "side-of-desk" collaboration
Nice-to-have:
- Experience in Wealth Management or Financial Services, particularly with advisor workflows
- Familiarity with CRM-based agent platforms (Salesforce Agentforce) and event-driven architectures
- Understanding of AI risk, model governance, explainability frameworks, and human-centered design
What's in it for you:
We thrive on the challenge to be our best, progressive thinking to keep growing, and working together to deliver trusted advice to help our clients thrive and communities prosper. We care about each other, reaching our potential, making a difference to our communities, and achieving success that is mutual.
- A comprehensive Total Rewards Program include competitive compensation and flexible benefits, such as 401(k) program with company-matching contributions, health, dental, vision, life, disability insurance, and paid-time off.
- Leaders who support your development through coaching and managing opportunities.
- Ability to make a difference and lasting impact.
- Work in a dynamic, collaborative, progressive, and high-performing team.
- Opportunities to do challenging work.
- Opportunities to build close relationships with clients.
The expected salary range for this particular position is $100,000 - $170,000, depending on your experience, skills, and registration status, market conditions and business needs.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Visa Sponsorship as an AI Engineer
Verify your role qualifies as specialty occupation
The H-1B1 visa requires your AI Engineer position to demand a bachelor's degree or higher in a directly related field. Cross-check your offer letter's duties against the O*NET profile for your SOC code before signing anything.
Translate your NUS or NTU transcript for U.S. recruiters
Many U.S. hiring managers don't recognize Singapore's degree structure. A credential evaluation from a NACES-approved evaluator confirms your qualification meets the specialty occupation standard consular officers apply.
Search for employers with active H-1B1 LCA filings
Employers who've filed Labor Condition Applications for H-1B1 Singapore roles have already navigated DOL certification. Use Migrate Mate to filter AI Engineer roles by verified H-1B1 LCA filing history instead of cold-applying to unknown sponsors.
Ask recruiters whether the role is cap-exempt eligible
Certain employers, including nonprofit research institutions and universities, file outside the 5,400 annual cap. If your AI Engineer role is research-focused, confirm cap-exempt status early so the cap never becomes a scheduling constraint.
Request the LCA before your consulate appointment is booked
Your employer must file and receive DOL certification on the LCA before you can apply at the consulate. Delays here are the most common reason H-1B1 visa timelines slip, so confirm the LCA certification date in writing upfront.
Benchmark your offered salary against OFLC Wage Search
The LCA must certify you'll be paid at least the prevailing wage for your SOC code and work location. Run your job title and city through OFLC Wage Search yourself so you can flag a non-compliant offer before the employer files.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does an AI Engineer role qualify for the H-1B1 Singapore visa?
Yes, provided the position requires at least a bachelor's degree in computer science, artificial intelligence, machine learning, or a directly related field. Generic titles like 'AI Engineer' vary widely, so the consular officer will look at the actual duties. Roles requiring original model development, neural architecture design, or ML infrastructure engineering consistently satisfy the specialty occupation standard.
How does the H-1B1 Singapore visa compare to H-1B for AI Engineers?
The H-1B1 visa has no lottery, so you're not gambling on a roughly 25% selection rate the way H-1B applicants are. The 5,400 annual cap for Singaporeans has never been exhausted, and you apply directly at the U.S. consulate rather than waiting for USCIS to adjudicate a petition. The tradeoff is that H-1B1 doesn't confer dual intent, meaning it's harder to pursue a green card concurrently from this status.
How do I find AI Engineer employers who actually sponsor H-1B1 Singapore visas?
Migrate Mate filters AI Engineer roles by verified H-1B1 visa Labor Condition Application filing history pulled from DOL disclosure data, so you can see which employers have already completed the DOL certification process for Singaporean hires. This cuts out the guesswork of approaching companies that haven't sponsored the visa type before and may not know how.
What documents do Singaporean AI Engineers need for the consulate interview?
You'll need your certified LCA, a support letter from your employer detailing your duties and qualifications, your academic transcripts and degree certificate, and your DS-160 confirmation. If your Singapore degree is a three-year program, bring a credential evaluation from a NACES-recognized evaluator to preempt any question about equivalency to a U.S. four-year bachelor's degree.
Can I switch AI Engineer employers after arriving on an H-1B1 Singapore visa?
Yes, but your new employer must file a fresh LCA with DOL and receive certification before you start working. There's no H-1B-style portability that lets you begin work on a pending application. You're authorized to work only once the new LCA is certified and your status reflects the new employer, so plan for a gap between offer acceptance and your start date.
