Job summary

Workstream is building AI-native services for the hourly workforce. You will be the first engineering hire on the delivery team, embedded with design customers to map real workflows and build production agents, integrations, and evaluation tooling.

This full-time, hybrid role requires owning the components that run in production, handling incidents end to end, and driving repeatable productized work. You will help raise the technical bar as the team scales.

Qualifications

• You have built and operated an AI agent or agentic workflow in production.
• Strong judgment across models, orchestration, APIs, data, and integrations.
• Experience working directly with customers or end users and communicating with non-technical people.
• Ability to break messy workflows into deterministic steps and define test plans.
• Careful with potentially incorrect AI outputs: provide grounded context and verification.

Responsibilities

• Build and operate production agents and agentic workflows: orchestration, tool use, data connections, deterministic logic, state, and permissions.
• Work forward-deployed with design customers—sit in their workflow, map the messy reality, and build against live data.
• Build the evaluation harness: eval datasets, thresholds, regression suites, post-launch monitoring.
• Build the human-review layer: exception queues, review tooling, escalation paths, auditable decisions.
• Run shadow-mode parallel runs against the customer’s existing process or provider to drive discrepancies to zero before go-live.
• Turn customer-specific work into reusable agents, integrations, and playbooks—productization is the default, customization the exception.
• Handle production incidents end to end, and feed failures back into evals and controls.
