Engineering Manager
Lead and scale FurtherAI's AI organization, owning technical direction for production LLM/agent systems in insurance. Build and manage teams across AI infrastructure, agent intelligence, and agentic products while staying hands-on in code and architecture.
About the job
What You'll Do
- Own and grow the AI org. Lead our AI team today and scale it into three teams - AI infrastructure (routing & reliability), Agent intelligence (evals, shared tools, multimodal pipelines), and Agentic products (the customer-facing AI assistant, long running agentic workflows).
- Set technical direction for how we build agents that hold up in real production, on real customer money.
- Recruit, mentor, and retain a world-class team of AI engineers - and hire the team beneath you as the org grows.
- Stay deeply technical. You'll still be in the code and the architecture. You set the bar by example, not from the sidelines.
- Push the frontier of what agents can do for insurance as the field moves.
Representative Projects
- Model router to operate on the Pareto frontier of speed and accuracy
- Infrastructure for long-running agents
- A general-purpose AI assistant that reads documents, pulls from connected systems, and takes actions end to end
What We're Looking For
- Proven experience leading AI/ML engineering teams building production LLM/agent systems — you've managed engineers and shipped, not just advised.
- Deep, hands-on understanding of agentic architectures — tool use, planning, multi-agent orchestration, evals, reliability.
- Strong technical bar — still fluent in the code; can dive deep and evaluate experiment design rigorously.
- Track record building and scaling teams — recruiting strong people and growing leaders under you.
- Clear communicator, in person and in writing.
- Bonus: B2B SaaS and working at a early stage growth startup.
- Above all: drive, grit, and ownership. If you excel here, other requirements are secondary.
Benefits
- Fully covered, best-in-class health, dental, and vision
- Competitive compensation, meaningful stock options, company 401(k)
- Unlimited PTO
- Outstanding in-office culture in the heart of San Francisco
- Lunch and dinner onsite
- Team events - happy hours and off-sites
- Pre-tax commuter benefits
