About the Team
Zoom Contact Center is Zoom’s next-generation cloud-based customer engagement platform. Our team,
Contact Center Intelligence
, is at the forefront of this evolution, building an AI-powered analytics engine that acts as a virtual data analyst for our customers. We are moving beyond traditional
reporting to create
intelligent agents capable of understanding natural language, reasoning through complex data problems, and providing actionable insights to improve contact center efficiency.
About the Role
We are looking for a backend engineer with a passion for Generative AI to help us build the next generation of "Agentic" applications. In this role, you will design and implement the systems that allow LLMs to reason, plan, and execute complex analytical tasks reliably. You will work at the intersection of traditional software engineering and modern AI development, creating robust frameworks for multi-agent collaboration and complex
problem solving
.
Responsibilities
Build Agentic Systems:
Design and implement robust AI Agent architectures (e.g., ReAct, Multi-Agent Systems) that can autonomously plan and execute complex workflows.
Core Backend Development:
Develop scalable services using
Java and Spring Boot
to support high-performance AI applications.
Prompt & Context Engineering:
Design and optimize prompt strategies, context management systems, and agent memory to ensure high accuracy and relevance in LLM responses.
Complex Task Planning:
Build logic for decomposing ambiguous user requests into executable steps, handling dependencies and error recovery in non-deterministic AI flows.
System Reliability:
Engineer observability and evaluation frameworks to monitor agent performance, latency, and correctness in production.
Collaboration:
Partner with data scientists and product managers to translate complex analytical requirements into reliable engineering solutions.
About You
Basic Qualifications
BS or MS
in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field.
5+ years
of software engineering experience.
Strong proficiency in
Java
and the
Spring Boot
framework.
Deep understanding of AI Agent architectures:
Proven experience building applications using patterns like ReAct, Chain-of-Thought (CoT), or Multi-Agent orchestration.
Hands-on experience with Prompt Engineering:
Ability to design, test, and optimize prompts for complex reasoning tasks.
Context & Memory Management:
Experience designing systems for managing LLM context windows and long-term agent memory (e.g., Vector DBs).
Experience designing and maintaining RESTful APIs and microservices.
Solid understanding of database design (SQL/NoSQL).
Preferred Qualifications
Data Analysis Background:
Familiarity with statistical concepts or data analysis methodologies.
Real-time Communication:
Familiarity with streaming output protocols (e.g.,
SSE
,
WebSocket
) for real-time AI response delivery.
Concurrency & Async Systems:
Strong experience with asynchronous programming (e.g.,
Java CompletableFuture
,
Reactive Streams
) to optimize high-concurrency workflows.
Observability:
Experience with
distributed tracing
(e.g., OpenTelemetry) and observability tools to debug complex multi-agent interactions.
Evaluation Pipelines:
Experience building
automated evaluation pipelines
(LLMOps) to measure and monitor agent reliability, correctness, and latency in production.
Experience with
Vector Databases
(e.g.,
Pinecone
,
Milvus
) and Semantic Search.
Familiarity with AI orchestration frameworks (e.g., LangChain, Semantic Kernel, AutoGen).
Experience working with
OLAP
databases (e.g., ClickHouse) or large-scale data platforms.
