Role overview
Own AI product features from the initial problem through implementation, evaluation and release. This hands-on role combines product judgment with agent engineering: you’ll shape workflows for a public-facing product, build them yourself, and improve them using evidence from real usage.
Responsibilities
- Break user needs into tasks that agents can handle, defining boundaries and when people should stay involved.
- Write concise requirements, success measures and test scenarios before building.
- Create agent workflows with LangGraph and LangChain, connecting them to relevant tools, APIs and data.
- Design prompts, context and memory, then evaluate quality and refine the system.
- Investigate traces and failures such as looping, incorrect tool use, hallucinations and context limits; manage latency and operating cost.
- Ship iteratively, document the work, and use user feedback to choose what to improve next.
Requirements
- Experience shipping real products in a product, engineering or similar role; prototypes alone are not enough.
- Practical LangGraph or LangChain work that can be demonstrated through a repository, demo or live product.
- Understanding of tool use, planning, state, multi-step workflows, memory and context limits in agent systems.
- Ability to assess quality and cost using tracing, evaluation data, token usage and latency.
- Comfortable working in Python and turning ambiguous problems into clear plans.
- Evidence of building, shipping and repairing agents in production or real use.
Nice to have
- Production experience with retrieval-augmented generation, embeddings or vector databases.
- Familiarity with structured outputs, function calling, guardrails, multiple model providers, multi-agent patterns or MCP.
- Experience deploying and monitoring AI features, including APIs, queues, observability and cloud infrastructure.
Benefits and work setup
- Fixed pay plus performance-based compensation tied to revenue generated by shipped agents.
- Direct access to product decisions and close collaboration with the founder.
- Work from anywhere.
