The Experience:

We are seeking a Senior Member of Technical Staff to design, build, and ship autonomous and semi-autonomous AI agents integrated with our platform. In this role, you will work at the intersection of LLM orchestration, tool-use frameworks, and production engineering—turning agentic prototypes into reliable, scalable, enterprise-grade systems. As a recognized SME and hybrid engineer, you will own complex functionality from end-to-end design to delivery and operation, while guiding team execution and quality standards.

What You'll Actually Be Doing:

  • Agentic Systems Engineering: Design, build, and deploy multi-step, tool-using AI agents (planning, reasoning, memory, tool invocation) and integrate them with APIs, databases, and enterprise systems (e.g., Salesforce, Slack).
  • Architecture & Orchestration: Evaluate and select agent frameworks/orchestration patterns (ReAct, planner-executor, multi-agent, etc.) and optimize deployments for latency, cost, and production reliability.
  • Agile Execution & Technical Delivery: Independently deliver high-quality, complex features across the entire lifecycle (design, execution, testing, review). Assist in slicing epics, defining tasks, and managing dependencies alongside PMs and Scrum Masters.
  • Guardrails, Monitoring & Operations: Build robust evaluation harnesses and guardrails to prevent hallucinations, drift, and unsafe tool calls. Proactively monitor features in production, lead incident handling (TTx), and contribute to PRBs/RCAs.
  • Leadership & Collaboration: Act as a SME and technical coach for AMTS/MTS engineers via pair programming and reviews. Present planned and delivered work to leadership and technical audiences, and partner with Tech Writers on documentation.

You're Our Person If:

  • Experience: 4+ years of software engineering experience, including hands-on experience building and deploying LLMs/agentic systems in production environments.
  • Technical Proficiency: Strong Python skills with mastery of agent orchestration frameworks (e.g., LangGraph, AutoGen, custom frameworks) or ability to construct frameworks from scratch.
  • AI Concepts: Deep understanding of prompt engineering, tool-calling/function-calling patterns, RAG, and evaluation strategies for non-deterministic systems.
  • Systems & Architecture: Solid expertise in API integrations, async systems, distributed architectures, and modern software design patterns.
  • Communication & Leadership: Strong written and verbal communication skills, with a track record of cross-functional alignment, technical coaching, and constructive code reviews.

Even Better If:

  • Experience with enterprise SaaS architectures, the Salesforce ecosystem, multi-agent coordination, or emerging protocols like MCP.
