The Agentic AI Software Engineer (Python/Go) Role

This is more than just a software engineering position - it’s an opportunity to help shape the future of how AI and data governance converge.

As a Software Engineer in our Data Governance & AI team, you’ll be building the next generation of cloud-native, AI-powered applications at Qlik, with a focus on autonomous agents designed to reason, plan, and act independently.

Based in either Suresnes or Nantes (in hybrid mode), you’ll work hands-on with Python and Go to engineer a scalable agentic ecosystem, not just one-off agents, but complex systems designed for production, embedded directly into our SaaS platform.

What makes this role interesting?

• Be part of something bigger than just a “cool AI feature”: This role focuses on deploying real, production-grade AI agents (not POCs) to solve meaningful, data-driven challenges for our users.
• Own the full lifecycle of intelligent agent design: You’ll work on everything from prompt orchestration and context handling to tool integration, validation, and real-world deployment, all with resilience, traceability, and observability built in.
• Tackle complex, cross-cutting challenges: This is a unique blend of cloud, SaaS, data, and AI innovation. You’ll interface with a wide range of teams and systems, navigating a rich problem space where innovation thrives.
• Work in a squad-driven, supportive team culture: The DGAI team at Qlik is built around small, autonomous squads. You’ll be free to explore different solutions while supported by teammates who value learning, experimentation, and team spirit.
• Stay ahead of the AI curve: Qlik’s AI and data strategy is long-term and core to our product vision, a place where your skills will grow with the field.

Here’s how you’ll be making an impact:

• Shape real-world AI agents: Design and implement autonomous agents that contribute directly to Qlik’s Data Business Unit and are built for scale, performance, and real-world use.
• Drive engineering excellence: Write clean, maintainable, well-documented code that balances iteration speed with quality and long-term maintainability.
• Build with cutting-edge tech: Work with frameworks like LangChain and LangGraph in Python, using agent planning loops, prompt orchestration, and tool APIs to enable robust AI behaviour.
• Tackle multifaceted challenges: From legal and compliance considerations to observability and cost-efficiency, you’ll design for real-world constraints in a dynamic, global environment.
• Contribute to an ambitious vision: Be part of Qlik’s mission to make data more intelligent and accessible through AI - building tools that deliver real impact for users worldwide.

We’re looking for a teammate with:

• A minimum of 4 years of experience with at least 1 year working directly with LLMs or AI infrastructure.
• Experience building with LLMs or using frameworks like LangChain.
• Familiarity with prompt engineering, agent planning loops, and tool integration (APIs, plugins).
• Intermediate Knowledge in Go (knowledge in Java is also appreciated).
• Excellent interpersonal, communication, and presentation skills in English.
• A team player with experience or a strong interest in working in a distributed and international agile team environment.

The location for this role is:

Suresnes or Nantes, France (Hybrid)
