AI Engineer III - Global Servicing Technology

At American Express, AI is reshaping the future of commerce and redefining the experiences our

commercial customers and card members expect. Within Amex Technology, we are building platforms,

products, and governance that enable agentic AI systems to operate responsibly and at scale across the

enterprise.

Our focus is on agentic AI development: designing intelligent, adaptive systems that can plan, reason,

and act across complex workflows with appropriate levels of autonomy. These systems power

autonomous workflows, decision support, and customer-facing experiences—while meeting the high

standards for security, explainability, reliability, and compliance required in financial services.

We partner closely with product, design, and business teams to deliver agentic capabilities that reduce

operational friction, improve decision-making, and transform how customers interact, transact, and grow.

As an AI Engineer – Agentic AI, you will be a hands-on builder contributing to the development of

production agentic AI systems that operate on real financial data and serve real customers.

You will work alongside experienced engineers, product managers, and designers to design, build, and

ship AI-powered features, while learning how to operate within a regulated, customer-facing environment.

This role offers strong mentorship and opportunities to grow your technical depth in LLMs, agentic

systems, and production AI engineering.

This is not a research-only role. You will write production code, contribute to system design discussions,

and help operate what you build after launch, with support and guidance from more senior engineers
