Staff Engineer, Agentic Intelligence

What you’ll do

• Own the policy framework. Design and build the framework that turns underwriting judgment into policies the agent reasons against - structured so policies can be configured per lender, investor, and loan product, customized for edge cases, and changed dynamically without a code deploy.
• Author the policies themselves. Translate dense, real-world underwriting rules - including escalation paths and human-in-the-loop boundaries - into clear, testable policy that the agent executes reliably.
• Make policy quality measurable. Establish and tune evals that prove a given policy behaves correctly across messy, real loan files. Build the datasets and harnesses that measure it, and turn results into a fast iteration loop.
• Own the agent harness it runs in. Maintain the runtime the agent operates in - tool use, orchestration, context management, retries, and guardrails - so policies execute reliably and safely on complex, multi-step tasks.
• Elevate the team. Establish the patterns, libraries, and review standards the rest of the team builds agents and policies against. Mentor and recruit the engineers who’ll work alongside you.
• Ship fast and learn faster. Take capabilities from rough ideas to production in days, not weeks. Watch how they perform on real files and rapidly iterate.

Who you are

• You’re deeply product-oriented. You enjoy engaging with customers and learning a new domain. You think beyond implementation details and care how technical decisions shape outcomes and trust.
• You’re a builder at heart. You’ve shipped meaningful systems used by real customers. You likely have side projects, strong opinions about technology, and genuine curiosity about where AI is heading.
• You operate with urgency and ownership. You move quickly without sacrificing reliability or trust. You proactively identify problems, communicate clearly, and drive solutions.
• You elevate the people around you. You bring strong engineering judgment, high standards, and collaborative energy.
• You’re excited by difficult workflow problems. Agent reliability, evaluation under ambiguity, encoding judgment as configurable policy, and AI-assisted decision-making genuinely interest you.

What you’ll bring on the technical side

• Strong engineering proficiency. Your coding skills are top-notch, as is your ability to wield AI-powered coding tools to expand your impact.
• Experience building and operating LLM-based or agentic systems in production.
• Experience designing configuration-driven systems - rules engines, policy/DSL frameworks, feature-flag or config platforms, or similar systems where behavior is driven by data, not redeploys.
• A rigorous, empirical approach to evaluation - you know how to measure quality in systems where “correct” is hard to define, and you trust data over vibes.
• Comfort working across the stack when it matters - you’re comfortable moving between our Go/Python backend and our TypeScript frontend to build holistic solutions.
• Track record of leading a technical surface end-to-end - not just features. Bonus if you’ve worked on decisioning, document understanding, or human-in-the-loop products.
