## Job Description

## Responsibilities
- Co-architect and co-build production AI agents with customer engineering teams.
- Own the technical win in pre-sales by designing proofs of concept, answering deep technical questions, and guiding evaluations.
- Help customers deploy and operate agent-based applications, including conversational agents, research agents, and multi-step workflows.
- Advise customers post-sale on architecture, best practices, and roadmap-level decisions.
- Run technical demos, trainings, and workshops for developer audiences.
- Surface field feedback and contribute reusable patterns, cookbooks, and example code that scale across customers.
- Occasionally contribute code upstream when it meaningfully improves customer outcomes.
- Travel to customers up to 40% of the time.

- Comfort working directly with customers during proofs of concept, architecture reviews, and technical evaluations.
- Ability to explain technical tradeoffs clearly and build trust with developer audiences.
- Ownership of outcomes, not just recommendations.
- Bias toward action and comfort figuring things out as work evolves.
- Interest in operating AI agents in production, not just building demos.

- Experience with LLM evaluation, observability, or guardrails.
- Experience with cloud environments, containers, and basic Kubernetes concepts.
