About the role

About the Role

Join the Agent Deployment team at an enterprise AI automation company, working directly with customers to turn complex operational workflows into reliable, production-grade systems. This is a hands-on engineering role that combines customer collaboration with contributions to the core platform.

What You'll Do

  • Architect and build production systems for customer deployments, translating complex requirements into scalable implementations.
  • Design, implement, and maintain backend services, APIs, and integrations that extend an AI agent platform.
  • Build secure, reliable integrations with external systems, with strong observability and maintainability.
  • Turn customer needs and edge cases into reusable product capabilities.
  • Own deployment lifecycles from initial architecture through launch, scaling, and optimization.
  • Partner with customers and internal teams to move high-impact solutions from idea to production.
  • Help establish an emerging engineering function and influence product direction.

What We're Looking For

  • At least 2 years of software engineering experience, ideally in product-focused or customer-facing roles.
  • Strong backend engineering and system design fundamentals, with experience shipping production systems and building APIs or third-party integrations.
  • Experience building scalable systems, integrations, or workflow automation tools; enterprise or internal tooling experience is a plus.
  • Exposure to AI or LLM systems, agent architectures, or automation platforms is beneficial.
  • Clear communication with technical and business stakeholders, plus the ability to work independently in fast-moving, ambiguous environments.
  • Experience in a startup, early-stage company, or other environment involving high ownership and 0-to-1 product development.
  • A degree in computer science, engineering, mathematics, or physics, or comparable technical fundamentals.
  • Authorization to work in the United States without visa sponsorship.
