Founding AI Engineer (Agents)
New York, NY
$160,000 to $200,000 base + equity
We’re partnered with a seed stage startup building an AI platform that automates wholesale operations for CPG brands, replacing spreadsheets, email chains, and manual workflows across ordering, freight, and reconciliation.
They’re hiring a founding engineer to own the AI agent layer, building systems that execute multi-step workflows across real supply chain tools (ERPs, 3PLs, retailer portals) in high-stakes, real world environments
What you’ll do:
- Build agent systems that handle ordering, freight tendering, reconciliation, and exception handling end to end
- Design tool-use, planning, and retrieval systems that reliably interact with external systems and APIs
- Work with real customer data (orders, invoices, fulfillment data) to improve system performance
- Implement evaluation frameworks, guardrails, and feedback loops to ensure reliability in production
- Work directly with customers to map messy operational workflows into automated systems
What we’re looking for:
- Experience building and shipping AI/ML systems in production
- Strong backend engineering skills (Python and/or TypeScript)
- Hands-on experience with LLM systems, agents, or RAG pipelines
- Comfortable working with real world data and debugging edge cases in production
- High ownership, able to operate in a fast-moving, startup environment
If this sounds like a good fit for you, please apply and we'll be in touch soon.
