About This Role
- Embed directly with customer teams to own delivery of production-grade AI-native systems and agents powering live business workflows.
- Lead customer discovery to identify bottlenecks, define success metrics, and ship iterative solutions integrated with customer auth, data, and delivery systems.
- Own production quality and measurable outcomes (e.g., revenue impact, cost, hours saved), and translate learnings into reusable patterns and product improvements.
Minimum Requirements
- 5+ years of experience in software engineering, machine learning engineering, or data science.
- Proven ownership of shipped customer or operator outcomes, not just prototypes or designs.
- Experience building and operating AI-native workflows or agents in production with Python or JavaScript/TypeScript, including debugging production failures.
- Work Experience Required: 5+ years in relevant engineering roles.
Ideal Candidate Profile
- Experience in customer-facing roles with accountability for external stakeholder outcomes (2+ years preferred).
- Expertise in agents, tool-calling, eval systems, retrieval/context systems, CI/CD, or AI-native coding workflows within real repositories.
- Background as a forward-deployed engineer or founding AI product engineer owning solutions end to end.
