Procurement is a complex, high-value domain full of long workflows, rich business rules, and real decision-making. It is one of the most promising places to apply cutting-edge AI Agent technologies to real, large-scale problems. We are reimagining how employees and business partners interact with procurement through intelligent agents, and building the underlying System AI Harness that lets agents plan, act, and deliver reliably. Here, you will work at the frontier of AI Agent engineering while developing deep, end-to-end knowledge of a complex business domain. You will have the opportunity to explore emerging technologies and contribute meaningfully to both our products and technical foundations from an early stage in your career. We are looking for talented individuals to join our team. As a graduate, you will get opportunities to pursue bold ideas, tackle complex challenges, and unlock limitless growth. Successful candidates must be able to commit to an onboarding date by the end of the year. Please state your availability and graduation date clearly in your resume.
