AI‑related experience (experience developing code‑based AI agents such as conversational AI agents a plus).

Experience with React, Typescript, and Go.

Past roles that interface with end customers to influence software development.

Engineers working on building AI agents should be self‑sufficient engineers at a senior level. They should be completely comfortable with normal software development life cycles and be able to write code independently, including building components, integrating with APIs, and testing/deployment.

The AI agent is built programmatically using code. It is explicitly NOT a no‑code/low‑code application. Everything including setup, permissions, version control, development, testing, and deployment are done via extensive coding workflows.

Engineers should be highly experienced in React

JS and Typescript, comfortable with VCS using Git, and other standard engineering workflows. Should have a working understanding of LLMs and writing API integrations in Typescript.

Engineers should have a comprehensive understanding of React JS, especially core concepts/philosophies of developing with React and front‑end frameworks in general. The Agent SDK has some important distinctions from React, but understanding of React development lifecycle and component lifecycle will enable engineers to grasp these differences and develop against them.

Most engineers will primarily need to know:
React (Intermediate to Advanced), Typescript (Intermediate to Advanced), LLM/prompt engineering basics, Github/version control, Terminal.

Build the agent from scratch using product requirements.

This includes developing the agent, testing different scenarios including knowledge retrieval and support journeys, and writing simulation tests.

This can (should) also include interfacing directly with the client in a product capacity, ensuring that the agent is meeting their needs and can connect to all necessary APIs/databases to do its…
