Job description
About the role
This role focuses on designing and building agentic systems that power creative workflows for short-form video. You'll help shape how AI agents reduce friction, accelerate learning, and unlock new creative possibilities for our users — building agents that can take creative actions on a user's behalf — while experimenting with emerging models and techniques to bring these experiences to life in production.
Software Engineers on the agents team work across product, machine-learning, and systems engineering — owning meaningful problems end-to-end and helping define how our agents are built and deployed across the product.
Responsibilities
Build and ship end-to-end agentic systems that meaningfully improve creative workflows, balancing quality, performance, and reliability
Design agent architectures — how agents gather context, plan, select tools, and execute creative tasks reliably at scale
Integrate state-of-the-art models, combining internal research and external capabilities to power new agent experiences
Measure and improve agent quality in production, using experimentation, evaluation frameworks, and real-world feedback to guide iteration
What Makes You a Great Fit
5+ years of professional industry experience
A track record of designing and developing ML systems or agentic pipelines in production
Deep experience with context engineering: RAG systems, token optimization, context management at scale
Experience building evaluation systems and agentic infrastructure (context gathering, tool selection, multi-step planning)
Exceptional problem solving fundamentals and ability to learn quickly in a rapidly evolving space
Able to operate effectively in an extremely fast-paced environment and scope and deliver projects end-to-end
Even better if...
You have worked with multi-agent architectures
You have experience fine-tuning LLMs for specific use cases
You have a pulse on where generative media and agentic AI technology is going
You are grounded, collaborative, and willing to do whatever it takes to help the team win
You have been a startup founder or an early engineer at one
