About Our Client

Our client is a modern AI platform for marketing and growth teams. Their AI agents are reimagining marketing workflows-helping teams create content, plan campaigns, and execute strategies with significantly higher velocity and performance. The company sits at the intersection of two major tailwinds: LLMs/agentic AI and the widespread adoption of cloud data warehouses (e.g., Snowflake and Databricks).

They operate with high ownership, first-principles thinking, and a culture that values strong communication, growth mindset, and kindness.

The Role

Our client is hiring a Software Engineer, AI Agents to build and productionize agentic systems that help customers act on their data. This is a product-minded role for someone who can move quickly from prototype → production , is creative with LLM applications, and can architect reliable backend pipelines.

You'll work on AI features that directly power customer workflows-especially around analytics and data questions-and you'll partner closely with product to translate ambiguity into elegant systems.

What You'll Work On
  • Rapidly iterate on proofs of concept (POCs) to explore the ceiling of AI in data + marketing workflows
  • Make key decisions on LLM architecture and frameworks , balancing speed, reliability, and maintainability
  • Build production "data agents" that use a company's warehouse data to answer analytics and data science questions about users and marketing performance
  • Develop a deep understanding of user workflows and design seamless AI-assisted experiences (not just "chatbots")
  • Productionize LLM pipelines with strong engineering fundamentals: observability, evaluations, safety/guardrails, cost control, and performance
What Our Client Is Looking For
  • Strong backend and systems fundamentals (you can architect and ship end-to-end systems)
  • Product intuition and customer empathy-you build for real workflows, not demos
  • Creativity in applying LLMs/agents to practical problems
  • Comfort operating in ambiguity and iterating quickly
  • Strong communication skills and ownership mindset
Note: Prior LLM experience is not required. The team values strong technical skills and product thinking most; you'll learn fast on the AI side if you have the fundamentals.

Compensation
  • Base salary: $180,000-$320,000 USD (location-independent within North America)
  • Equity included (details shared in process)

Interview Process

This process emphasizes product sense, system architecture, and values alignment-without programming interviews.
  1. Recruiter Screen (30 min): Intro + mutual fit
  2. System Design Screen (60 min): Design a data processing feature end-to-end
  3. Hiring Manager Interview (30 min): Past experience + operating preferences + values alignment
  4. Agent Building Systems Interview (75 min): Architect an agentic system conceptually, incorporating product/customer requirements and technical constraints
