Why We're Hiring
2025 was "the year of AI agents." 2026 is "the year of Agent Harness."
In a world where JAPAN AI STUDIO autonomously executes hundreds of workflows as "the brain of the enterprise," agent performance is not determined by the model alone. The Agent Harness the control layer that wraps the model and manages session state, checkpoints, guardrails, context injection, and tool execution is the key that transforms an agent from "works in a demo" to "trusted in production."
"The brain of the enterprise" approves requests, allocates resources, and discovers prospects the Agent Harness is the heart that controls each of these actions safely, quickly, and reliably.
JAPAN AI is hiring Agent Harness Engineers to design and implement this Agent Harness in-house and build it as the shared foundation across all products.
Mission
"Design the heart of 'the brain of the enterprise.'"
Design and implement the Agent Harness execution engine, orchestration, guardrails, memory, and model routing that enables AI agents to operate safely, quickly, and reliably. Build the control foundation for hundreds of workflows running on JAPAN AI STUDIO, entirely in-house.
What Is an Agent Harness?
An Agent Harness is the control and execution infrastructure layer that wraps AI models. While Agent Frameworks (e.g., LangChain) handle agent construction , the Agent Harness handles agent control and operation .
Backend Engineer
What you build : Web APIs, microservices
Relationship with AI/ML : Calls ML models via API
State management : Stateless request/response
Safety controls : Authentication, authorization, input validation
/////
Agent Harness Engineer
What you build : LLM-centric agent execution engines, SDKs, orchestrators
Relationship with AI/ML : Designs model routing, RAG integration, context injection, and inference optimization at the system level
State management : Agent session management, checkpoints, long-term memory, working memory
Safety controls : Guardrail/policy execution engine a rule execution layer that controls LLM output
Role & Expectations
As an Agent Harness Engineer, you will design and implement the agent control and execution infrastructure, leveraging your AI/ML knowledge.
Design and implement the execution engine (Graph Runtime / State Machine) with deep understanding of LLM / AI agent operating principles
Own AI-specific system design including model routing, context management, and memory infrastructure (long-term memory, working memory)
Design and develop the Agent SDK used by 120 in-house engineers
Build the guardrail / policy execution engine to safely control agent behavior
Collaborate with Research Engineers to integrate the latest research outcomes into the production infrastructure
Why You'll Love This Role
Build the Agent Harness in-house Design and implement the hottest architectural concept of 2026 without relying on OSS. Stand at the industry's cutting edge.
At the intersection of AI/ML × Backend Design and implement the agent execution infrastructure with deep understanding of LLM operating principles. Neither pure infrastructure nor pure ML a new domain.
Foundation software designer This is not a job writing YAML. You will build SDKs, execution engines, and orchestrators in code. Low-level knowledge directly applies.
Developer experience architect Design the SDK and toolchain used by 120 in-house engineers, improving productivity across the entire development organization.
Powering every product In a production environment used by -200 companies, every AI agent runs on the Harness you build.
Rapid-growth environment In a startup that has grown to 200+ people and 9 products in just 3 years, you will have significant autonomy in technical decision-making.
