Applied AI Engineer
About the Role
You will own the agentic infrastructure at a seed-stage AI startup building the foundational layer for AI-native service operations. This means designing and shipping the systems that let agents execute reliably in production, retain months of client context, and know when to hand off to a human. This is a foundational engineering role at a very early team, with outsized scope and impact from day one.
What You'll Do
Build and maintain core infrastructure that enables agents to execute tasks reliably across dozens of iterations.
Design and implement memory systems that retain months of client context from messy, real-world operational data.
Develop eval harnesses that teams actually trust to make production shipping decisions.
Own the full loop: build it, measure it, break it, fix it, and make it learn.
Ship agent systems for real customers and iterate directly based on production feedback.
Contribute across infrastructure, orchestration, customer collaboration, and early hiring as the team grows.
What We're Looking For
3+ years shipping LLM agents that ran unattended in producti
