Senior Agentic AI Engineer
$300,000 - $400,000
Onsite, Palo Alto (Remote for exceptional talent)
Full time / Permanent

A well-known, frontier GenAI company is undergoing a major product pivot, moving from single-modal generative experiences toward a consumer multi-agent ecosystem designed to feel genuinely autonomous, useful, and alive.

They’re building the core infrastructure that will define how millions of users interact with AI agents daily. From planning and execution to memory, creativity, and proactive behaviour. This role sits at the heart of this shift: designing and shipping the systems that make intelligent agents function for 1M users.

What You’ll Do
  • Design and evolve the agent runtime, the core loop handling reasoning, tool use, planning, memory retrieval, and response generation
  • Build agent capabilities across modalities (e.g. image/video generation, voice interaction, browsing, code execution) and ship them
  • Own LLM orchestration and model routing across multiple providers, optimising latency, cost, reliability, and quality
  • Implement memory systems that allow agents to learn from interactions (long-term memory, episodic recall, semantic retrieval)
  • Prototype and productionize autonomous behaviours such as proactive task execution, scheduling, and goal-directed workflows
  • Create evaluation frameworks and metrics that measure agent quality, personality consistency, and real user impact

What “Great” Looks Like
  • You’ve personally built and shipped agentic systems, not just prompt wrappers or demos
  • You’re comfortable owning ambiguous, greenfield problems and turning ideas into working product fast
  • You think in systems: distributed workflows, multi-step reasoning, orchestration, reliability
  • You code daily and care deeply about performance, UX feel, and real-world usefulness
(If you’re looking for a narrowly scoped role, heavy process, or pure research track, then this won’t be the right fit.)


Why Join
  • Join at a genuine product inflection point, early access launch, new architecture direction, and strong internal momentum
  • Work in a small, elite engineering cohort where each senior hire has outsized ownership and influence
  • Help define the company’s next-generation agent platform and model infrastructure from the ground up
  • Collaborate closely with product leadership and shape how consumer AI agents evolve in the real world
  • Clear trajectory toward technical leadership and founding-level impact as the organisation scales

If you’ve built real agent systems and want to work on problems that don’t have playbooks yet, please apply with your resume!
