Job summary

Opus is seeking an experienced engineer to turn deployments into reality in enterprise environments. You will implement agentic workflows, integrate Opus with ERP/CRM systems, and build reusable components and playbooks for faster future deployments.

You will work directly with client teams and our consulting partner engineers, running technical enablement and ensuring smooth handovers. Strong LLM experience and API integration skills are essential.

Qualifications

• Proven engineering background shipping software others depend on.
• Hands-on production experience with LLMs: prompt engineering, agent patterns, evaluation.
• Strong experience with system integrations and APIs (REST, SOAP, webhooks).
• Coding/scripting ability, Python preferred.

Responsibilities

• Implement and configure agentic workflows for enterprise clients and partners, from prototype to production rollout.
• Design and build proofs of concept and pilots that prove business value quickly, then harden for operations teams.
• Develop and maintain evaluation suites to define correct behavior, measure it, and improve it.
• Implement guardrails, human-in-the-loop checkpoints, and audit trails for client regulatory posture.

Job description

The role

You are the person who makes an Opus deployment real.

What you'll own

Build and deploy

• Implement and configure agentic workflows in Opus for enterprise clients and partners, from first prototype through production rollout.
• Design and build proofs of concept and pilots that prove business value quickly, then harden them into something operations teams can depend on.
• Develop and maintain evaluation suites for the workflows you ship: define what "correct" means for a process, measure it, and improve it before a client finds the gap.
• Implement guardrails, human-in-the-loop checkpoints, and audit trails appropriate to the client's regulatory posture.

Integrations

• Work hands‑on with APIs, data connectors, and middleware to integrate Opus with ERP, CRM, document management, and core enterprise systems.
• Diagnose and resolve integration and orchestration issues under production pressure, often with limited visibility and less patience available than you would like.
• Handle real‑world data: inconsistent documents, partial records, edge cases nobody mentioned during discovery.

Client and partner engineering

• Work directly with client and partner technical teams, including our strategic consulting partner's engineers on joint engagements. Understand their environment, earn their trust, and build alongside them.
• Run technical enablement and training so client teams can operate and extend what you built without us.

Make the next deployment faster

• Identify patterns that recur across engagements and turn them into reusable components, templates, and playbooks.
• Write the technical documentation, integration guides, and handover materials that let support and the client's own team take over cleanly.
• Feed field signal (failure modes, capability gaps, feature requests) back to Product and Engineering. What you learn in week three of a deployment should change the platform by the next quarter.

What we're looking for

Experience

• Proven engineering background in AI/ML, workflow automation, or systems integration, with a track record of shipping software that other people depend on.
• Hands‑on production experience with LLMs: prompt engineering, agent and tool‑use patterns, retrieval, and evaluation. You've seen what breaks when a model meets real enterprise data.
• Strong experience with system integrations and APIs (REST, SOAP, webhooks, event‑driven patterns).
• Coding and scripting ability, Python preferred.

Technical depth we value

• Deep integration experience with a major ERP or CRM platform (SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, Salesforce, or similar).
• Familiarity with workflow orchestration engines and agent frameworks.
• Understanding of security and compliance practice in integrations: data residency, access control, PII handling, audit requirements.
• Experience delivering technical workshops or enablement sessions.

How you work

• Comfortable being the technical face of the company in a client's building, including on days when the news is bad.
• Excellent troubleshooting instincts and the discipline to document what you found.
• Organized and proactive across concurrent engagements in a fast‑moving startup.
• Low ego, high agency. You'd rather the workflow work than be right.

Why this role

Small delivery squads and real ownership of what you ship.

Founding‑team influence on how Opus deployments are done, not a seat inside someone else's playbook.

Competitive compensation and clear paths into technical leadership as the practice grows.

Logistics

Location: Austin, Texas preferred. Remote considered for exceptional US‑based candidates.

Work authorization: Opus AI Technologies is not able to sponsor work visas for this role, including H-1B and OPT/CPT extensions requiring employer sponsorship. Candidates must already be authorized to work in the United States for any employer, without current or future sponsorship.

Equal opportunity: We're building a team from a range of backgrounds and we evaluate candidates on what they can do. If you don't match every line above but think you'd be good at this, please apply.
