Job Description
Mid‑Senior AI Engineer – Agents & AWS (Music Industry)
At Tuned Global, we build the technology that powers music and audio streaming for some of the world's most recognisable brands. Our platforms sit behind large‑scale consumer products, delivering millions of audio experiences every day.
We're not experimenting with AI, we're shipping it into production at scale.
Proprietary in‑house audio detection models
LLM‑powered agent systems
Personalisation and recommendation intelligence
Scalable AI infrastructure and orchestration
Headquartered in Melbourne, we also have an expanding global AI capability group, including an AI Sciences team based in the UK, and a Data Science team in Sweden, working alongside our local product and engineering teams to deliver next‑generation music intelligence products.
We're now looking for a Mid‑Senior AI Software Engineer to join our Melbourne team and help build the next wave of applied AI systems for audio and streaming platforms.
We are located on the edge of the CBD in Docklands, with easy access via train, tram, or car. We offer an excellent package and flexible work arrangements, including working from home for a number of days each week and birthday leave.
The Role
As a Mid‑Senior AI Engineer you will be focused on designing, building, and scaling AI agents that operate within real business workflows and combine modern cloud engineering with advanced Agentic workflows.
You will help define the technical patterns, standards, and best practices for how AI agents are built and operated across our music cloud platform.
You will work on projects such as:
LLM‑powered orchestration systems and AI agents
Retrieval‑Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines
AI‑powered automation tools integrated into real platforms
Internal AI developer tooling and infrastructure
AI services deployed on AWS for reliability, scale, and performance
This is a hands‑on engineering role with real ownership, building AI agents that are used at scale in commercial environments.
You will work hands‑on with
Python, AWS, AWS Bedrock, LLMs, and modern agent frameworks , collaborating closely with product, platform, and operational teams in a fast‑moving scale‑up environment.
Key Responsibilities
AI Agent & Workflow Development
Design and build AI‑powered agents and multi‑step agentic workflows to automate and augment internal business processes using LLMs.
Implement tool‑using agents that can call internal services, APIs, and data sources.
Build retrieval‑augmented generation (RAG) pipelines and structured knowledge access.
Apply modern agent patterns such as multi‑step planning, orchestration, and human‑in‑the‑loop workflows.
Develop and operate AI systems using
AWS‑native services , including Lambda, ECS/EKS, Step Functions, SQS, DynamoDB, and S3, Bedrock (or equivalent LLM services).
Design secure, scalable, and cost‑aware solutions suitable for production environments.
Build internal tools and services required to support agents (APIs, data models, workflow services).
Work closely with engineering, product, and operational teams to identify high‑impact use cases for AI agents.
Translate business problems into reliable, maintainable AI‑driven systems.
Contribute to architectural decisions and technical standards around AI and automation.
Reliability & Continuous Improvement
Implement monitoring, logging, and evaluation for agent behaviour and system performance.
Continuously improve prompt quality, agent reliability, and workflow efficiency.
Stay current with emerging best practices in LLMs, agent frameworks, and AI system design.
Skills / Experience:
Required
5+ years of professional software engineering experience
Strong experience building backend services in production environments
Minimum 2+ years of AWS cloud experience designing and deploying real workloads
Experience working with LLMs, including API‑based models and prompt engineering
Understanding of AI system patterns (RAG, agents, embeddings, vector stores, evaluation)
Strong proficiency in Python (and/or other backend languages)
Strong engineering fundamentals: system design, scalability, performance, reliability
Australian work authorisation required at time of application
Preferred / Nice to Have
Experience with
agent frameworks
such as:
LangChain
Function / tool calling
Multi‑agent or orchestrated workflows
Familiarity with
Model Context Protocol (MCP)
or similar approaches to structured tool and context integration.
Experience with:
Retrieval‑augmented generation (RAG)
Vector databases and embeddings
Event‑driven or asynchronous architectures
Experience building internal developer or operational tooling.
Exposure to music, media, or content platforms.
Why Tuned Global
This is an opportunity to join a company with:
A mature, global platform powering real audio streaming businesses
