Member of Technical Staff, Rust Agent Runtime
Profound, New York, New York +1
The role
Profound is building the foundational agentic layer for modern companies. Our Agent Runtime is the execution backbone that turns complex AI work into reliable, composable workflows. You will shape the core primitives, execution, scheduling, state, and streaming, that power intelligent systems at scale.
What you will do
- Build core workflow engine primitives used to orchestrate agents, tools, and dataflows
- Own the real-time control plane, including streaming events, reliable job orchestration, idempotency, and replay
- Ship high-leverage systems that turn prototypes into production-grade, scalable workflows
- Design and ship Rust-first backend services and clean APIs for creating, executing, and supervising graph or DAG workflows
- Build reliable job orchestration with multiple response modes, including blocking, streaming, and fire-and-forget, with durable state
- Strengthen tenant isolation, security, and access patterns across the platform
