Agentic AI Engineer

Ship agents that survive prod.

Narrower-scope path inside the AI/ML space: focuses on agentic AI, MCP development, and the production-agent module. Pairs the Phase 6 agentic content with Phase 8 security (prompt injection at agent depth) and Phase 4 backend (API surfaces agents call).

What you'll be able to do

Build, deploy, and monitor a production agent with workflow-vs-agent decisions, observability, prompt-injection defenses, and cost engineering documented.
