This is not automation bolted onto existing workflows. It is a new model entirely. As AI Engineer, Growth, you will be the second builder on this engine. Working alongside our lead architect, you execute - building, shipping, and iterating the agent orchestrations, automated workflows, and system integrations that power every growth work-stream: paid growth, lifecycle, organic search, CRO, incentives, referrals, and beyond. This role is for someone who moves fast, builds from specs without needing hand-holding, and cares deeply about the quality of what they ship. If you've spent your career wanting to build systems that actually run growth rather than just support it - this is that role., * Agent orchestration workflows across growth use cases - automating the decisions and executions that today require human intervention across paid media, lifecycle messaging, organic content, conversion optimization, incentives, and other growth levers * Integrations between our AI reasoning layer, growth execution platforms, data infrastructure, experimentation systems, and analytics tools * Shared agent infrastructure components - reusable workflow patterns, prompt libraries, and integration clients that every growth workstream draws from * Monitoring and audit logging - ensuring every agent action is traceable, versioned, and queryable for governance and continuous improvement * Creative and content generation pipelines - automating the brief-to-variant-to-distribution loop across growth channels WHAT YOU'LL OWN * Build velocity across new growth workstreams - you are the person who gets workflows from spec to production * Integration reliability - connections between systems work, handle errors gracefully, and are maintained as tools evolve * Workflow documentation - every workflow you build is documented clearly enough that a domain specialist can understand, tune, and improve it without your involvement ## Related Videos - [Beyond Webhooks: The Future of Scalable API Event Delivery](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100312-beyond-webhooks-the-future-of-scalable-api-event-delivery) - [Resilient by Design: Building Robust Architectures in High-Stakes Financial Systems](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2106-resilient-by-design-building-robust-architectures-in-high-stakes-financial-systems) - [Modern Data Architectures need Software Engineering](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1030-modern-data-architectures-need-software-engineering) - [Agentic employees in world's most downloaded FinTech app](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100123-agentic-employees-in-world-s-most-downloaded-fintech-app) - [The Vonage Trivia Voyage: Quiz Your Way to the Top!](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/761-the-vonage-trivia-voyage-quiz-your-way-to-the-top) - [HR ROBO SAPIENS: Decoding AI Agents and Workflow Automation for Modern Recruitment](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1470-hr-robo-sapiens-decoding-ai-agents-and-workflow-automation-for-modern-recruitment) ## Related Articles - [Navigating the AI Shift](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/629-navigating-the-ai-shift) - [How to Become an AI Engineer](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/331-how-to-become-an-ai-engineer) - [MLOps And AI Driven Development](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/82-mlops-and-ai-driven-development) - [What is Agentic Programming and Why Should Developers Care?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/625-what-is-agentic-programming-and-why-should-developers-care) - [Prompt Engineering is a Job of the Past](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/342-prompt-engineering-is-a-job-of-the-past) - [The Overflow: AI and Agentic Coding](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/721-the-overflow-ai-and-agentic-coding)
