Senior Agent Engineer
Remote · United States
Job Summary
Senior Agent Engineer owns the agent layer of the platform, driving translation accuracy, dependency-map correctness, hallucination control, and multi-agent orchestration. Builds and maintains production agent code daily, shapes architecture, prompts, tool surfaces, and the eval loop, and leads prompt-and-eval iteration in partnership with the RAG & Eval Engineer. Focuses on frontier code-understanding capabilities, including translation and dependency mapping for legacy systems that millions rely on, and works in a remote US setting with a high level of collaboration and impact.
Required Qualifications
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, plus 5 years of professional software engineering experience; equivalent experience may substitute for the degree requirement.
- Has shipped at least one production agent (real users, real failure modes) and can describe in detail what broke and how it was fixed.
- Ability to work in a fast-paced, collaborative environment.
- Working fluency across the modern agent stack: tool use, MCP, evals, RAG, streaming, multi-agent coordination.
- Strong TypeScript or Python.
- Subagents and multi-agent workflows are a normal way of working.
- Comfort with measurement, regression detection, and prompt-and-eval iteration.
- Ability to operate without a roadmap — defines the next problem worth solving and goes.
- Heavy native use of AI tooling: agents in parallel, model as collaborator.
- Demonstrated experience in a remote work environment.
