- Architect and build new core product capabilities from the ground up, prioritizing reliability, scalability and security.
- Create software features and services that are driven by AI agent technology.
- Build dependable multi-step agent workflows that connect language models with internal and third-party services and data stores.
- Write Python to build and release AI-driven automation for complex business processes.
- Turn loosely defined product needs into concrete technical designs and working releases.
- Partner with customers and internal colleagues to understand technical needs and help move sales conversations forward.
- Own features across their whole lifecycle, from concept to deployment and operation.
- Help set the engineering standards, tooling and working culture as one of the first engineers on the team.
