WHO YOU’LL WORK WITH

As the premier consulting partner for the private equity industry, Bain's PEG boasts a global practice that is over three times larger than any competitor. Our network of over 1,000 professionals supports private equity and institutional investor clients through every stage of the investment life cycle, from deal generation and due diligence to portfolio value creation and exit planning.

Bain & Company is developing a suite of cutting-edge data and software solutions designed to revolutionize how the private equity industry uses data for investment insights and decision-making.

The PEG Innovation team's mission is to create analytical solutions for Bain clients, teams, and the broader institutional investor space using proprietary software and data products. This includes the development, commercialization, and daily management of Bain's proprietary datasets, data, and software businesses.

WHERE YOU’LL FIT WITHIN THE TEAM

Senior Full-Stack AI Product Engineers design, build, and operate end-to-end AI product experiences across the PE due diligence platform. This role sits at the intersection of product engineering and applied AI, combining strong full-stack software engineering with deep practical knowledge of how LLMs and agentic systems behave in production.

You will own intelligent product features from backend orchestration through frontend experience, building the services, workflows, and user interfaces that make AI useful, reliable, and intuitive for end users. This includes designing agent workflows, retrieval pipelines, evaluation gates, human-in-the-loop review patterns, and the analyst-facing experiences that surface them. You are deeply technical about production-grade AI systems, but equally strong in translating non-deterministic model behavior into clear, trustworthy, and effective product experiences.

You will mentor other engineers, raise standards for AI product engineering, and help define how Bain builds safe, observable, and scalable AI-powered workflows.

AI Platform and Agent Workflow Engineering (40%)

• Design and build the Agent Gateway service, including inbound APIs, model routing, context management, response validation, and cost/audit logging.
• Build and maintain LangGraph agent workflows for PE use cases, including streaming, tool-calling, multi-step execution, and human-in-the-loop interrupt patterns.
• Integrate Temporal durable execution with LangGraph, including workflow and activity authoring, checkpointing strategies, retry and backoff policies, signal/query handling, and safe versioning for in-flight workflows.
• Build and maintain AI platform services such as Agent Session Manager, Memory Service, HITL Coordination Service, and Feedback/Correction Service with production SLO expectations.
• Design and implement RAG pipelines end-to-end, including chunking strategies, embedding model selection, vector store integration, re-ranking, and retrieval quality evaluation.
• Own evaluation and regression gates, including golden dataset management, metric definition, qualitative and quantitative evaluation, LangSmith/Braintrust integration, and CI enforcement on quality regressions.
• Implement context window management strategies such as token budgeting, truncation/compression, and tool-call state persistence to support reliability in longer-running workflows.
• Instrument AI services with structured logging, traces, and metrics, and define operational dashboards and alerts for latency, quality, cost, and failure signals.
• Deploy and operate AI workloads in Kubernetes, including containerization, Helm-based deployment patterns, and autoscaling considerations where appropriate.

Leadership, Collaboration, and Engineering Standards

• Mentor engineers and help set standards for production AI product engineering across testing, evaluation, documentation, safety constraints, and maintainability.
• Partner with Data Platform on feature store access patterns, inference integration, schemas, data contracts, and SLAs.
• Collaborate with Product Engineering and Design on AI feature surfacing, including streaming experiences, structured output rendering, citation and evidence UX, and HITL review interfaces.
• Use AI coding assistants to accelerate prototyping and development, while validating all production artifacts against testing and evaluation gates before promotion.
• Document agent behavior specifications, tool contracts, and product interaction patterns so behavior is explicit, reviewable, and maintainable.

ABOUT YOU

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, Data Science, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• 6+ years of experience building production software, including significant experience delivering full-stack applications and/or AI-enabled systems in production environments.
• Demonstrated experience shipping user-facing AI product features end-to-end, from backend orchestration and service design through frontend implementation and rollout.
• Experience delivering agentic systems into production, including tool calling, multi-step workflows, RAG, structured output handling, and measurable quality controls.
• Experience designing and operating evaluation frameworks, including golden datasets, regression gates, qualitative evaluation approaches, and CI controls that prevent quality regressions.
• Experience operating distributed services in containerized environments such as Docker and Kubernetes, with ownership of monitoring, reliability, and incident response.
• Demonstrated ability to mentor engineers and raise engineering standards through code review, design guidance, shared conventions, and strong technical judgement.

Full-Stack Product Engineering
