Responsibilities
You'll be architecting the nervous system of an entirely new kind of organism—a multi-agent AI platform that can run an entire portfolio of SaaS businesses without human intervention
While solving for specific needs of a production SaaS, you’ll build some version of the following: Orchestrator-worker patterns: dozens of specialized agents, parallel coordination, distributed queuing; Cross-stack abstractions: works across any portfolio company's tech stack and schemas; Meta-agents learn from overrides: analyze why humans intervene, accelerate improvement; Replay thousands of scenarios: test new models against history, catch regressions; Agents create own tools: programmatically generate solutions when stuck; Time-travel debugging: structured logs, audit every decision, full observability; Human approval gates: security boundaries for code execution, data mods, critical ops; Hybrid data fusion: databases, APIs, event streams → traditional + vector stores
Qualification
Required
5+ years of core engineering skills
You've built and scaled production systems handling 100K+ daily active users
Deep experience with distributed systems: microservices, event-driven architectures, message queues
Full-stack development: you can debug everything from React components to database queries and underlying infrastructure
Track record designing APIs that other developers actually want to use
Experience integrating LLMs via foundation model APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google)
You understand prompt engineering as an engineering discipline, not just trial and error
You've built eval systems to measure AI performance
Experience with token optimization, context window management, and fallback strategies
Kubernetes expertise for container orchestration
Docker mastery: you understand security, resource limits, and ephemeral environments
Infrastructure as Code: Terraform or similar—your infrastructure is version-controlled and reproducible
You've built CI/CD pipelines that actually accelerate development instead of slowing it down
Production monitoring and observability, including debugging distributed systems
Security fundamentals: sandboxing untrusted code, secrets management, preventing prompt injection
Preferred
