About the Role:

As a GTM AI Engineer (AKA AI RevDev) on the AI Operations team, you'll be at the forefront of our AI strategy, getting hands-on with cutting edge technology to solve real-world business problems. You will be an internal AI development expert, building (and subsequently owning) a suite of agentic workflows and front-end applications that our 1000+ member sales team will leverage on a daily basis, with coverage from our SMB to Strategic teams. You will own the full development lifecycle for internal AI tools, encompassing everything from initial prototyping and proof-of-concept development to scaling solutions for production, conducting beta tests with end-users, and providing ongoing maintenance. Your responsibilities will include constructing sophisticated agents using platforms like Glean and N8N, developing front-end applications with low-code tools such as Retool and Cursor, and crafting intricate prompts for AI models including Glean, Gemini, and Perplexity.

We're looking for someone with an experimentation mindset—eager to prototype, learn quickly from failure, and explore new ideas. You should be passionate about AI’s potential to transform work and have a strong grasp of concepts like context windows, token usage, compute costs, chunking, and performance benchmarks. Experience with scripting, SQL/SOQL, Python basics, and prompt engineering using models like ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, etc., via web and API is essential. Familiarity with the evolving agentic ecosystem (orchestration layers, MCP), and the ability to explain technical topics to non-technical audiences, especially in a GTM context, is key.

What You'll Do:

• Own the full development cycle of prototyping / developing proof of concepts, scaling prototypes for production use, beta testing with end users, and performing ongoing maintenance for internal AI tools
• Build complex agents using Glean and N8N, use low-code tools like Retool or Cursor to develop front-end applications, and create complex prompts for use in Glean, Gemini, or Perplexity
• Internally developed tools will often be tested head-to-head with external vendors to determine the efficacy of the solutions we build
• Collaborate with our internal product managers and ESYS team to integrate key data sources into your applications / agents in a secure way that respects Motive’s data governance structure
• Ensure agents and applications follow UX best practices and can be easily leveraged by a less technical business audience
• Have a strong POV on when an agentic workflow is warranted vs a point solution (i.e., prompt).
• Have a strong POV on which of our internal AI tools is best suited to solve a specific use case
• Manage a provided cost envelope for production use cases, testing different LLM models to balance performance with token consumption cost
• Create and maintain documentation around launched solutions
• Train end-users on the usage of launched tools
• Stay up-to-date on the latest advancements in LLMs and agentic orchestration

What We\'re Looking For:

• 3-5 years of hands-on development experience in an enterprise environment while leveraging machine learning + AI models
• Strong understanding of AI fundamentals such as context windows, token consumption, compute cost, chunking, and performance benchmarks
• Understanding of API usage, limitations, and how to leverage APIs to aggregate data across multiple source platforms. This includes an understanding of rate limits and scalable API use as it pertains to both data sources and LLMs
• Understanding of scripting, SQL / SOQL, and Python fundamentals
• Experience leveraging prompt engineering to complete complex tasks, such as multi-step agentic workflows or coding
• Experience leveraging foundational models (Gemini, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Grok and others), both through the web interface and via the API
• Familiarity with the rapidly evolving agentic landscape, including orchestration layers, MCP, and Agent2Agent
• Ability to communicate technical concepts to a non-technical end user
• Fully remote position (USA or Canada and must already be located in the country)

Pay Transparency
Your compensation may be based on several factors, including education, work experience, and certifications. For certain roles, total compensation may include restricted stock units. Motive offers benefits including health, pharmacy, optical and dental care benefits, paid time off, sick time off, short term and long term disability coverage, life insurance as well as 401k contribution (all benefits are subject to eligibility requirements).
