Building DeepSeek's Answer to Claude Code
DeepSeek is developing an Agent Harness to enhance its AI models and create production-ready agents. The company is hiring an R&D Engineer to work on this project, which aims to integrate various components such as tooling and memory into a cohesive system. This initiative is positioned as a broader platform for agentic tools, extending beyond just coding applications.
- ▪DeepSeek is looking for an R&D Engineer to build an Agent Harness that integrates their AI models with production-ready agents.
- ▪The Agent Harness will include components like tooling, memory, and desktop integration, evolving alongside the models.
- ▪DeepSeek's approach differs from Claude Code by focusing on a generalist agent harness with a broader scope beyond software development.
