Full Job Description
About the Role

We are seeking a systems-minded engineer to design, prototype, and build the internal tooling, data infrastructure, and automated workflows that ensure User Operations remains seamlessly aligned with Product and Engineering, even as our product surface rapidly expands. This is a technical IC role focused on designing and shipping robust, scalable software-not managing projects or creating slide decks.
You'll create systems that power feedback loops, automate workflows, connect APIs, and deliver actionable insights, enabling our teams to move at the same pace as our innovative product organization.

In this role, you will
  • Coordinate product launches across internal User Operations teams and external partners to guarantee seamless execution and support readiness.
  • Architect launch-readiness systems that streamline formerly manual processes, replacing ad-hoc docs and meetings with automated workflows, dashboards, and alerting to build for scale.
  • Develop and implement scalable feedback loops between support, product, and engineering so customer insights are continuously integrated into product strategy.
  • Prototype quickly-leveraging ChatGPT, Jupyter notebooks, Retool, and other tools-to prove value before hardening with Engineering.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with Product, Engineering, Marketing, Legal, and Operations to align on launch goals, timelines, and readiness metrics.
  • Identify risks and challenges during rollouts, proposing solutions that safeguard customer experience and service levels.
  • Continuously automate, replacing every repetitive touchpoint with scripts, agents, or LLM-powered flows.


Your background looks something like this
  • Have 4+ years experience in project launch coordination, especially within a customer support environment (internal and/or external).
  • Write production-grade code in Python, SQL, or similar languages.
  • Enjoy developing internal tools, workflow engines, and lightweight platforms.
  • Understand and operationalize GTM workflows through thoughtful systems design.
  • Are comfortable navigating ambiguity and collaborating cross-functionally.
  • Prioritize exceptional user experiences for internal systems just as highly as customer-facing products.


Benefits

We proudly offer the following benefits for our full-time employees:
  • Take what you need vacation policy (subject to local requirements; UK employees receive 25 days of statutory leave)
  • Medical, Dental, and Vision benefits for you and your family
  • Life Insurance and Disability Benefits
  • Retirement Plan (e.g., 401K, pension)
  • Parental Leave
  • Fertility and family building benefits through Carrot
  • Daily lunches and snacks in the office to keep you at your best

These benefits are described in more detail in Decagon's policies, may vary by location, and can change at any time according to applicable compensation and benefits plans.
