Job description

Frontier AI startup building state-of-the-art agentic systems that automate complex, multi-step tasks typically done by humans. Well-funded, with a value prop combining cutting-edge research (in computer use and proprietary models) with forward-deployed implementation alongside enterprise clients.

You'd be joining the Agent team - a small, high-calibre group building the systems and tooling that actually makes agents work in production. This is engineering embedded in research - the model team trains the models; the agent team builds everything around them.

What you'll do

  • Build and improve agent logic: planning, tool use, skills, memory, orchestration
  • Work on internal and academic benchmarks to measure and push agent performance
  • Translate research ideas into working systems (tool calling, new agent capabilities, training signals)
  • Build and evolve the in-house agent stack used across the organisation
  • Partner closely with researchers to turn ideas into production-ready agent behaviour
  • Iterate quickly, experiment often, and own problems end-to-end

Requirements

  • Senior-level engineering experience from a high-bar environment (top AI lab, scale-up, or Big Tech)
  • Strong software engineering fundamentals and system design skills
  • Interest in agentic AI - prior agent experience is helpful but not mandatory
  • Proactive, autonomous, and creative - you spot gaps and fill them
  • Comfortable working in fast-moving, loosely specified problem spaces

This is an opportunity to build agentic AI at the frontier - not writing papers, but shipping systems that push the boundaries of what agents can do.
