This includes the identity, access management, integration points, and extensibility that enterprise customers require to allow customers to embed Sierra into their existing ecosystems.
  • Scale with our largest customers.
    Our enterprise customers have complex environments, strict security requirements, and high expectations for reliability. You'll ensure Sierra's platform scales across organizations, regions, and use cases while maintaining performance and simplicity.
  • Form the foundation of trust.
    Enterprise customers trust Sierra with their most sensitive workflows and data. You'll help set and uphold a high bar for security, compliance readiness, reliability, and operational excellence across the platform.
What you'll bring
  • A passion for being on the frontier of AI products.
  • Pride in building reliable, maintainable, and secure systems that scale.
  • Motivation and high-agency to drive outcomes - we have a high-autonomy culture and each team member has lots of agency to overcome obstacles and achieve customer impact.
  • Alignment to our company values throughout your work, notably finding a balance between Craftsmanship, Customer Obsession, and Competitive Intensity.
  • 4+ years hands-on experience building production products and systems.
  • Degree in Computer Science or related field, or equivalent professional experience.

  • Experience building AI-powered products or platforms.
Our values
  • Trust: We build trust with our customers with our accountability, empathy, quality, and responsiveness. We build trust in AI by making it more accessible, safe, and useful. We build trust with each other by showing up for each other professionally and personally, creating an environment that enables all of us to do our best work.
  • Customer Obsession: We deeply understand our customers' business goals and relentlessly focus on driving outcomes, not just technical milestones. Everyone at the company knows and spends time with our customers. When our customer is having an issue, we drop everything and fix it.
  • Craftsmanship: We get the details right, from the words on the page to the system architecture. We have good taste. When we notice something isn't right, we take the time to fix it. We are proud of the products we produce. We continuously self-reflect to continuously self-improve.
  • Intensity: We know we don't have the luxury of patience. We play to win. We care about our product being the best, and when it isn't, we fix it. When we fail, we talk about it openly and without blame so we succeed the next time.
  • Family: We know that balance and intensity are compatible, and we model it in our actions and processes. We are the best technology company for parents. We support and respect each other and celebrate each other's personal and professional achievements.
