What this job asks for AI summary
This role centres on building and deploying generative and agentic AI solutions — including LLM integrations, agentic workflows, and multi-agent coordination — across the full development lifecycle from research through to production. The work involves cloud and containerised deployments, responsible AI practices, and ongoing incident support. It suits engineers with a background in Java/Spring Boot microservices who are looking to specialise in applied AI engineering within a large telecoms organisation.

Why we read it this way (7)
This role is based at Vodafone Albania (Tirana), so US compensation benchmarks do not apply.
The role is a hybrid of GenAI/Agentic AI engineering and traditional backend software development. It is classified as Software Developers (15-1252) because the primary deliverable is building and deploying AI-powered software services; Data Scientists (15-2051) is the runner-up given the LLM/GenAI focus.
No explicit seniority level appears in the title or posting framing; the requirements describe independent but collaborative work without org-wide scope, supporting a Mid classification.
GenAI/Agentic AI skills (LLMs, multimodal models, agentic workflows, OpenAI/Anthropic) appear in the responsibilities narrative rather than the formal 'Must have technical/professional qualifications' section. They are listed as preferred accordingly, even though they are central to the role's purpose — the hard-gated technical requirements section focuses on Java, Spring Boot, REST APIs, Docker/Kubernetes, CI/CD, and testing.
MCP Servers and Datadog appear only in the responsibilities narrative and are marked preferred.
No compensation figures are disclosed in the posting.
This role's work location reads as outside the US — the candidate pool, comp, and contention benchmarks here are US-only (BLS employment, Adzuna/USAJOBS demand, and certified H-1B wages), so treat them as a rough US reference, not a local market.
