<div><div><strong>XPENG</strong> is a leading smart technology company at the forefront of innovation, integrating advanced AI and autonomous driving technologies into its vehicles, including electric vehicles (EVs), electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft, and robotics. With a strong focus on intelligent mobility, XPENG is dedicated to reshaping the future of transportation through cutting-edge R&amp;D in AI, machine learning, and smart connectivity.</div><div> </div><div><div><div>You will be a senior engineer on the team building our internal AI engineering platform — the systems, services, and automation that power how our engineers build and ship software. A core mission is connecting agents to real engineering decisions: giving agents a connected, semantic view of our systems and data, and letting them propose and safely execute actions against operational systems. The agentic layer (NL intake, agentic trouble-shooting, task orchestration, auto-research loop) is an important component, but the foundation of this role is strong software engineering: designing robust distributed systems, building reliable services and pipelines, and relentlessly automating manual workflows. You'll also work directly with internal and external customers to understand their workflows and drive adoption.</div></div></div><div> </div><div><strong>Job Responsibilities:</strong></div><div><ul><li><div>Design, build, and operate production-grade platform services and infrastructure with strong reliability, observability, and performance.</div></li><li><div>Identify manual, repetitive engineering workflows and eliminate them through self-service automation on the platform.</div></li><li><div>Build and evolve the agentic layer: agent lifecycle, tool/MCP integrations, sandboxed execution, multi-agent workflows.</div></li><li><div>Design the semantic data layer that grounds agents: model our systems, workflows, and decision data as connected objects and tools that agents can query and act on.</div></li><li><div>Build safe action execution paths: connectors to internal and operational systems, staged propose–validate–approve–commit flows, with granular access control and end-to-end decision lineage/audit.</div></li><li><div>Own system design for new platform capabilities end to end, from requirements through rollout and operations.</div></li><li><div>Work directly with customers: lead technical onboarding, gather requirements, debug production issues, and turn field feedback into roadmap priorities.</div></li><li><div>Establish best practices for agent evaluation, observability, and safety guardrails.</div></li></ul></div><div> </div><div><strong>Minimum Skill Requirements:</strong></div><div><div><ul><li><div>Master's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related fields.</div></li><li><div>5+ years building and operating production distributed systems, with demonstrated strength in system design and software engineering fundamentals.</div></li><li><div>Proficiency in Python and TypeScript; solid grasp of databases, message queues, caching, and API design.</div></li><li><div>A builder's instinct for automation: a track record of turning manual processes into tools, pipelines, or self-service systems.</div></li><li><div>Hands-on experience with modern AI coding tooling and LLM APIs, including tool use/function calling.</div></li><li><div>Experience with agentic systems or task orchestration platforms (workflow engines, multi-agent frameworks, MCP servers, or similar).</div></li><li><div>Strong cross-team communication skills.</div></li></ul></div> </div><div><strong>Preferred Skill Requirements:</strong></div><div><ul><li><div>Familiarity with Autonomous Driving terminologies and model development workflows.</div></li><li><div>Direct customer-facing experience: solutions engineering, technical onboarding, developer relations, or enterprise support.</div></li><li><div>Experience with data/domain modeling: semantic layers, knowledge graphs, or object models over heterogeneous data sources.</div></li><li><div>Experience integrating with enterprise or operational systems (internal platforms, legacy APIs, writeback to systems of record).</div></li><li><div>Experience with evaluation frameworks and observability for LLM applications.</div></li><li><div>Familiarity with sandboxing/isolation technologies.</div></li><li><div>Contributions to open-source agent frameworks, MCP servers, or developer tools.</div></li><li><div>Experience driving adoption of developer tooling within engineering organizations.</div></li></ul></div><div> </div><div><strong>What do we provide:</strong></div><ul><li><div>A fun, supportive and engaging environment.</div></li><li><div>Opportunity to make significant impact on transportation revolution by the means of advancing autonomous driving.</div></li><li><div>Opportunity to work on cutting edge technologies with the top talent in the field.</div></li><li><div>Competitive compensation package.</div></li><li><div>Snacks, lunches and fun activities.</div></li></ul><div> </div><div>The base salary range for this full-time position is $174,720 - $295,680, in addition to bonus, equity and benefits.
