Senior Software Engineer - AI Agent

What are the main responsibilities for this role?

• Build the core product and system architecture for a next-gen education agent
• Design and ship agentic workflows across planning, tool use, memory, evals, feedback loops, and production operations
• Own difficult engineering problems end to end, from prototype to production
• Build robust backend and infra foundations for AI-native products
• Work across the stack when needed, but go deep on backend systems and infrastructure
• Partner closely with product and design to turn ambiguous ideas into working products fast
• Push the team toward higher engineering leverage, better abstractions, and faster iteration loops

What skills and experience are required?

• Hardcore technical ability
• Strong full-stack skills, with especially deep experience in backend and infrastructure engineering
• The kind of engineer people describe as a 10x builder
• Strong product instinct, not just implementation ability
• Comfortable operating in ambiguity and moving with very high ownership
• Able to design clean systems, make sharp tradeoffs, and execute fast without lowering the bar
• Deep curiosity about AI agents, developer tooling, evals, orchestration, and how modern engineering is changing
• Real excitement for exploring and applying Harness Engineering, not just reading about it
