Job description
What You’ll Do
Work directly with enterprise customers to identify new problems, prototype solutions, and ship them to production
Own customer engagements from discovery and solution design through production, adoption, and expansion.
Design and implement LLM-powered systems and agentic workflows from concept to production
Use and extend our core context-learning library to solve customer problems, contributing reusable capabilities and lessons back into the platform.
Build agentic features for knowledge management–think agents that can edit, update, and maintain large knowledge bases autonomously
Build reliability and confidence systems–evaluation frameworks, confidence scoring, and logic for when to automate vs. when to escalate to a human
Architect async, scalable systems that handle complex AI orchestration
What We’re Looking For
You’ve built complex, production LLM-based systems with real depth–something with multiple layers of engineering decisions you can walk through in detail
You’ve shipped something meaningful to production and can explain how it evolved
You’re excited by open-ended problems where the solution might not exist yet
You have experience with (or strong interest in) how systems learn and improve over time: human-in-the-loop feedback, prompt optimization and context engineering
You have experience building agents and autonomous systems
You can navigate between research papers and production code with equal comfort
You bring customer empathy and commercial judgment, and remain effective when requirements, data, or expectations are unclear.
You’re a strong communicator who can clearly explain your work to teammates and customers
You have 3+ years of professional experience
