Tech Stack
About the role
- Build across both layers of the fleet — Layer 1: agents that run autonomously without rep involvement.
- Identify what to build and make the case for it.
- Test, measure, and iterate.
- Mine call transcripts for agent inputs.
- Document and maintain what you ship.
Requirements
- A degree from an Ivy League or equivalent top-tier university — computer science, data science, economics, mathematics, or a field that taught you to think in systems.
- You have built an AI agent or automated workflow — not a class project. Something you designed, built, and iterated on because you wanted to see if it would work.
- Technical capability to build: you have used LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, or equivalent), built prompt architectures, and connected systems together. Python or equivalent.
- Commercial curiosity. You read about how businesses make money. You ask why something converts and why something else doesn’t.
- Rigor with data. You do not accept a number without understanding where it came from.
