Requires 2+ years software engineering experience with customer-facing delivery, strong Python skills, and hands-on experience with AI tools like ChatGPT API and Claude. Duties include building and deploying AI agents, integrating with enterprise platforms such as Salesforce and Jira, resolving integration blockers, and ensuring production readiness. Must have strong communication skills and ability to work independently in ambiguous environments. Compensation range $200,000 to $300,000 USD with comprehensive benefits.

  • Build and deploy AI agents, workflow automation, and integration pipelines into operational systems
  • Develop MCP servers, sub-agents, retrieval pipelines, structured extraction templates, and supporting infrastructure
  • Resolve data readiness, permissions, and system integration blockers to ensure production readiness
  • Ensure deployed solutions meet reliability, latency, and observability requirements for enterprise operations
  • Embed with GTM functional leaders to identify and scope high-impact AI opportunities
  • Define success criteria and measurable outcomes for workflows with business stakeholders
  • Translate business requirements into technical designs and manage scope trade-offs
  • Guide functional teams through AI adoption, building trust and ensuring active use of solutions
  • Codify deployment patterns, connector templates, evaluation frameworks, and observability standards into reusable playbooks
  • Feed learnings back to internal AI platform teams to accelerate AgenticOS development
  • Contribute to evaluation design, precision/recall benchmarks, human review queues, and audit trails
  • Maintain strong knowledge of LLM capabilities, agent development frameworks, and enterprise AI tooling

Requirements

  • 2+ years of software engineering or technical deployment experience including direct customer-facing or embedded delivery work

  • Strong programming proficiency in Python
  • Demonstrated ability to ship production-grade integrations in fast-moving or ambiguous environments
  • Experience building integrations with enterprise platforms such as Salesforce, Jira, or comparable CRM and workflow systems
  • High agency and sound judgment under ambiguity: ability to scope work, sequence delivery, remove blockers, and protect timelines independently
  • Strong communication skills: able to conduct discovery with business stakeholders, convey technical trade-offs clearly, and maintain alignment across engineering and functional teams
