Full Job Description
What you'll do
  • Own the product end-to-end. You'll build across Roadrunner's core systems - fast, reliable, and genuinely delightful for the AEs who depend on them. These aren't prototypes. They run in production.
  • Ship AI agents that change how deals get done. You'll design and deploy proactive agents that handle quoting, deal modeling, and complex multi-step workflows.
  • Build for enterprise scale. Workflow engines powering approval flows for multibillion-dollar transactions at millisecond-level response times. The bar is high on purpose.
  • Work directly with the people using what you build. Close feedback loops. Understand real pain. Ship again.


Example projects
  • Sprinting two weeks to take a new feature from zero to shipped, iterating directly with AEs in the field.
  • Building AI agents that proactively surface quoting recommendations and model complex deal structures before the AE even asks.
  • Designing workflow engines that power approval flows for multibillion-dollar transactions with sub-millisecond response times.


What you'll bring
  • A track record of building and shipping great products end-to-end.
  • Strong engineering fundamentals - you know the tradeoffs between speed and quality, and when each one matters.
  • High autonomy and a builder's mindset - you figure out what needs to be done and do it.
  • Clear, direct communication across technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Based in SF or excited to relocate - we're an in-person team.


Bonus points if...
  • Experience building or deploying AI/LLM systems in production.
  • Familiarity with agent tooling, eval frameworks, or RAG pipelines.
  • You've been a founder or early engineer and know what full ownership actually feels like.
  • Prior experience working directly with customers or external stakeholders on technical projects.


What we offer
  • Medical, dental, and vision benefits for you and your family.
  • Lunch and dinner, as well as snacks and coffee to keep you energized.
  • Take what you need vacation policy.
