About the IRC

Huawei Ireland Research Centre's (IRC) mission is to position Huawei as a recognized technology leader and global information and communications technology (ICT) solutions provider. We are building an industry-recognized multi-disciplinary Research Centre of experts focusing on medium-term to long-term issues to achieve this. The IRC will work closely with an open, innovative ecosystem with Huawei customers to address real-world issues. The IRC will also engage with key European universities to build a basic research capability to support Huawei technical projects.

About the role

The cloud provides flexible and low-cost IT resources across the Internet. As more cloud providers seek to drive greater business outcomes and the environments of the cloud become more complicated, it is evident that the era of intelligent cloud has arrived. Recent advancements in Machine Learning and AI such as Large Language Model, Deep Learning holds the promise for solving some of the most complex challenges in cloud management that were not possible before. To name a few, proactive anomaly detection, dynamic and intelligent resource allocation, intelligent fault diagnosis and network demand prediction are among the challenging problems in this space.

The Ireland-based research team will work closely with the Huawei Consumer Business Group (CBG) in the Headquarters, CBG covers smartphones, PC and tablets, wearables, mobile broadband device, family device and device cloud service, and is the second largest smartphone manufacturer in the world. Huawei Consumer BG is dedicated to delivering the latest technologies to consumers and sharing the happiness of technological advances with more people around the world. Walk the walk and make dreams come true.

We are looking for a senior researcher/engineer who is passionate about Agentic AI to join our core team that is redefining the boundaries of AI applications. You will design and ship cutting-edge LLM-powered agentic systems — from RAG pipelines to autonomous decision-making agents — driving large-scale production deployments in real-world business scenarios.

Key Responsibilities

• Build frontier Agentic AI systems: architect and ship production-grade LLM-powered agents with high scalability and low latency.

• Stay ahead of the curve: track AI advancements, evaluate emerging tools, and share knowledge across the team.

• Own the full lifecycle: independently drive features from requirements and design to deployment and post-launch monitoring.

• Keep production resilient: troubleshoot incidents, harden error handling, and build effective observability.

• Collaborate across functions: partner with product, frontend/backend, SRE, and business stakeholders to turn requirements into robust solutions.

Position Requirements

Skills & Qualifications

• Education: Ph.D. in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, or a closely related discipline.

• LLM & Agentic Systems: Proven experience building and deploying LLM-powered applications or autonomous agents — RAG pipelines, conversational AI, or intelligent assistants — with deep understanding of their architectures and limitations. Hands-on with agentic runtime harnesses, MCP tools/resources for standardized tool integration, and composable agent skills for procedural task execution.

• Engineering Excellence: 3+ years of hands-on experience in backend or algorithm development, with expert-level proficiency in Python and a strong track record of writing production-grade, scalable code.

• Analytical Mindset: Strong problem-solving skills with a knack for structuring and resolving ambiguous, high-impact challenges in dynamic environments.

• Collaboration & Mentorship: Excellent communicator and team player, with a track record of mentoring junior engineers, fostering knowledge sharing, and contributing to a positive, high-performance culture.

Preferred Qualifications

• Earned a Ph.D. from a globally recognized university with a strong emphasis on AI/CS research.

• A proven publication record in top-tier AI conferences.

• Active involvement in or meaningful contributions to high-impact open-source AI projects, with publicly accessible portfolios.
