What does a work environment look like at Vouch?

Vouch has employees located across the U.S., with offices in San Francisco, Chicago, and New York City. This role can be based anywhere in the U.S. as long as you can work our Vouch core collaboration hours (8:30 am-2:30 pm Pacific Time) when most internal meetings are held.

What You'll Do:

• Design and build the platform that exposes Vouch's domain operations: backend services, data platforms and salesforce - as deterministic, well-typed, auditable tools for both autonomous AI agents and human-built skills.
• Implement reliable tool and data-access primitives: well-bounded interfaces, filtering constraints, normalized data contracts, auth/permissions, observability, and eval harness.
• Design APIs, event flows, and service contracts that let agents and human workflows interact with operational systems without becoming brittle.
• Help evolve the experience surfaces our brokers and clients use every day: component library, AI-assisted prototyping, and design ↔ engineering collaboration patterns - partnering with design, product, and engineering peers.
• Contribute to the development of AI-enabled workflows and agent infrastructure, ensuring systems remain predictable, auditable, and production-ready.
• Work directly with real-world operational data across Postgres, Snowflake, S3, and design access patterns usable by both product workflows and agent systems.

About You:

• Strong software engineering fundamentals, including API design, tool/contract design, data modeling, and building reliable production services.
• Systems thinker who naturally reasons about service boundaries, coupling, and long-term maintainability.
• Experience designing and implementing integrations between enterprise platforms and backend software services.
• Experience with LLM agent frameworks or tool-calling patterns - LangChain, LangGraph, Model Context Protocol (MCP), Anthropic SDK, or equivalents.
• Comfortable working across heterogeneous stacks (TS/Node, Salesforce, data platforms) and selecting the right tool for the job.
• Proven ability to take ownership of ambiguous problems and drive solutions end-to-end.
• Comfortable engaging with front-end work and collaborating closely with design and product.
• Comfortable using modern AI coding tools (Claude, Cursor, etc.) intentionally as part of daily work to ship production code.
• Strong communication skills and the ability to clearly articulate architectural tradeoffs.

Nice To Have:

• Experience with event-driven architectures and workflow orchestration tools.
• Experience with Snowflake or building data synchronization / reverse ETL workflows.
• Experience with Salesforce development (Apex, LWC, Flows, platform events).
• Experience in regulated domains such as insurance, fintech, or healthcare.
• Familiarity with AWS services and distributed backend infrastructure.
