About the Job

Requirements

  • At least 4 years of software engineering experience, with a track record of building and shipping production products end to end.
  • Hands-on experience shipping applications with large language models or AI agents, with sound judgment about their capabilities and limitations and experience improving product quality through evaluation and user feedback.
  • Strong software engineering and system design skills, proficiency in Python or Go, and ability to work across backend services and user-facing applications.
  • Strong product judgment and ability to translate ambiguous customer needs into simple, effective product experiences for users with different levels of technical expertise.
  • Comfort working directly with customers, moving quickly between discovery and implementation, and owning problems without a fully defined specification.

Responsibilities

  • Design and build AI-powered experiences in Slack, Microsoft Teams, Microsoft Office, and the MCP server, bringing Computer into tools where teams communicate, create, and coordinate work.
  • Build workflow and automation products that let teams delegate recurring, multi-step tasks to agents, including scheduled and event-triggered execution, human approvals, and visibility into progress and results.
  • Build shared agent experiences that let teams delegate work, review results, and build on each other’s workflows, with clear ownership and handoffs between people and agents.
  • Work directly with customers and internal teams to identify high-impact problems, validate ideas through rapid prototyping, and turn successful use cases into scalable, reusable products.
  • Own products end to end, from problem definition and technical design through full-stack implementation, launch, and production reliability.
  • Measure and improve activation, repeat usage, and workflow completion, using customer feedback and product experiments to drive sustained AI adoption.
  • Partner with Product, Design, Sales, and engineering teams to turn customer needs and emerging AI capabilities into reliable product experiences.
