  • Experience designing and shipping production software in startup, scale-up, or high-growth technology environments.
  • Ability to work with modern integration protocols and external platform ecosystems, including agent-based architectures and workflow orchestration.
  • Strong written communication skills and experience collaborating effectively within remote-first teams.
  • Genuine interest in emerging AI and agentic engineering technologies, trends, and best practices.

Nice to Have

  • Experience in advertising technology, marketing technology, digital media, or campaign management ecosystems.
  • Experience integrating platforms such as customer data platforms, cloud data warehouses, advertising networks, or marketing analytics tools.
  • Familiarity with LangChain or similar agent orchestration frameworks.
  • Experience running, fine-tuning, evaluating, or deploying local and self-hosted LLMs.

BENEFITS
