Job description

Agent Engineer, Agent Studio at Nooks, the applied AI lab building an agent workspace for go-to-market teams (1,500+ customers including Notion, HubSpot, Cursor and Rippling; $70M+ raised, Kleiner Perkins). Deploy and iterate autonomous SDR agents with design-partner customers across account strategy, prospecting, outbound and call prep; own the deployment outcome including customer revenue impact. 3+ years engineering, production AI-agent experience, ideally ex-founder or forward-deployed. Hybrid in San Francisco, 3+ days in office. $215K–$300K plus equity. Verified on Nooks' Ashby board.

Listed in the FDE census, but Nooks has renamed the seat "Agent Engineer" — and then gone further than most FDE roles dare, giving the engineer GM-level responsibility for customer revenue with a 5x meetings-booked target in a one-month trial. Watch this title: when the deployment engineer owns the customer's number, "forward deployed" starts sounding understated.
