The Revenue Architects is a GTM engineering studio. We design and ship the go-to-market systems behind some of the fastest-growing B2B companies in San Francisco, including Canva, Descript and WorkOS.
We're not a regular agency. We work as an embedded engineering team: data, enrichment, outbound, CRM, intent signals and lifecycle automation, built on AI from the first day. Behind the client work sits our own platform of internal apps, agents and data pipelines, which lets a small team deliver like a large one. We want to stay small and get a 10x from agents instead of headcount. This role is how we get there.
The Role
A forward-deployed engineer role, pointed at go-to-market. Half client work, half internal platform, and the two feed each other: what you learn on a client becomes a reusable piece of the platform, and what you build on the platform makes the next client faster.
What You Will Do
- Ship client systems. Take a business objective ("route website visitors to sequences by intent", "fix our account scoring") and turn it into a working system within days, with Clay, the CRM, the warehouse, APIs and agents. You'll be on calls, present your work and iterate live.
- Own the internal platform: our apps and the Snowflake data layer the client work depends on.
- Build the quality loop. Every piece of work the team pushes gets reviewed by an agent first, against how a senior GTM engineer would judge it. You build and run that loop: agent reviews, evals, CI/CD for GTM work.
- Turn one-off delivery into playbooks agents can execute, and keep them current.
- Run the research loop: test new models, tools and agent frameworks, keep what works, write down why.
- Raise the team's AI reflexes: reviews by agents, PRs, getting more out of Claude Code.
What We Are Looking For
- An engineering school, or a top business school on a quantitative track.
- You code and have shipped real software people used. You know git, PRs, testing and CI/CD.
- Then you went customer-facing: forward-deployed, solutions, growth or GTM engineering, ideally at a startup.
- You understand the business, not just the stack. Pipeline, conversion and ICP mean something to you, and you prioritize by what moves them.
- You switch altitude easily: three clean bullets for a VP, the detail ready when they push on a number.
- You build with AI by default. Claude Code, Cursor and agents are how you work, not something you're trying out.
- You're autonomous and fast. A three-sentence brief comes back as a working system. 80% today beats 100% next week.
- You stay at the frontier. You can name the three most interesting things that happened in AI agents or GTM this week, because you tried them.
- Fluent English (all client work is in English). French is a plus.
Stands Out
- Software engineering, then a forward-deployed, solutions or sales engineering role
- An agent, eval or review loop running in production, not a demo
- Clay workflows, enrichment pipelines or outbound infrastructure you built
- Data modeled in a warehouse (Snowflake, BigQuery, Postgres) for a business use case
- A side project, side business or open-source work you built on your own
Stack
Claude Code or Cursor, agent SDKs, Python or TypeScript, SQL, APIs and webhooks, git and CI/CD, Snowflake, Clay, Salesforce or HubSpot. Nice to have: evals tooling, Next.js and Vercel, dbt, Instantly, Smartlead or HeyReach.
