Monitor bot performance (containment rate, deflection, intent accuracy, CSAT) and continuously retrain/tune NLU models using production utterances. Design and build LLM-powered agents capable of multi-step reasoning, tool/API invocation, and task completion (e.g., order status lookup, refunds, appointment scheduling) within the contact center workflow. Implement RAG (retrieval-augmented generation) pipelines connecting agents to knowledge bases, CRM, ticketing, and backend systems for grounded, accurate responses. Orchestrate multi-agent workflows (e.g., using LangChain, LangGraph, Semantic Kernel, or platform-native agent builders) including handoffs between specialized agents and human-in-the-loop checkpoints. Apply prompt engineering, guardrails, and evaluation frameworks to ensure agent responses are accurate, safe, and on-brand. Collaborate with solution architects, QA, and platform teams to deploy, test, and support bots/agents in production environments. Document flows, prompts, agent logic, and integration architecture for handover, audits, and knowledge continuity.
