About the role

Impact

  • Own the architecture and delivery of agentic workflows enabling marketing to self-serve content creation and publishing across blogs, landing pages, microsites, and social.
  • Work directly with marketing stakeholders to understand workflows, define quality criteria, and build trusted tools.
  • Partner on CMS architecture to support agent read/write workflows and ensure structured content for AI-driven discovery.
  • Build and own the agent reliability system: define output quality criteria, implement eval suites, behavioral regression testing, and feedback loops based on marketer feedback.
  • Architect human-in-the-loop review systems including proposal/commit separation, diff-based review UI, approval routing, notifications, and audit logging.
  • Encode brand, legal, and compliance constraints as enforceable guardrails in agent workflows.
  • Partner to ensure agent-generated content meets surface quality and brand standards.
  • Mentor and grow the Senior Engineer on the team, setting standards for production-grade agentic engineering.

Requirements

  • 12+ years of software engineering experience with a track record of technical ownership on production systems.
  • Hands-on experience building and operating LLM-powered systems in production.
  • Strong instinct for designing quality and evaluation frameworks for probabilistic or generative outputs.
  • Strong understanding of human-in-the-loop system design: approval workflows, review interfaces, audit logging, and guardrail implementation.
  • Deep understanding of how agents interact with content systems, publishing pipelines, and web infrastructure including CMS, deployment pipelines, and edge delivery.
  • Ability to work directly with non-engineering stakeholders to translate workflow requirements into agent architecture.
  • Experience mentoring engineers and elevating technical execution across a team.
