Responsibilities

We're looking for an exceptional Senior Software Engineer to help build the distributed backend that powers our AI agent platform and the developer-facing products around it — the event-driven services, real-time integrations, and APIs that let agents reliably do real work. You'll be building the systems that need to stay correct and available on our path to 1M users over the next year. In this role, you will also be responsible to:

-

Build event-driven, horizontally-scalable backend services that process work reliably and correctly even when parts of the system fail.

-

Build real-time surfaces and integrations — streaming connections, gateways, and CLIs — that hold up under load.

-

Integrate LLMs and agentic harnesses into production systems.

-

Drive features end-to-end — from ideation and architecture through deployment, observability, and iteration.

-

Raise the engineering bar through clean, well-tested code, thoughtful reviews, and mentorship.
