About the role

Engineer on the Integrations team building systems and products that connect Perplexity to user data and workflows across multiple verticals, delivering end-to-end applied AI experiences with a focus on reliability and full-stack delivery.

Responsibilities

  • Build agentic apps, features, and workflows that make Perplexity a daily driver for users.
  • Lead vertical-specific products and AI-powered experiences like a Personal CFO and Email Assistant, turning connected data into reliable, high-impact tools people want to use every day.
  • Own the data backbone of pipelines, infrastructure, and connectors that bring user and enterprise data to agents and products at a 99.9% reliability bar.
  • Drive end-to-end projects across the full stack, running experiments in parallel and hill-climbing on adoption, retention, and revenue.
  • Set technical direction, mentor engineers, and partner with AI, Design, Data Science, and Infra to ship products that don't exist anywhere else.

Qualifications

  • 6+ years of professional software engineering experience, with a track record of rapidly shipping complex products end-to-end.
  • Demonstrated technical leadership: you've owned large, ambiguous projects, set direction, and driven them to clear outcomes.
  • Strong execution: you ship many products and experiments in parallel and drive each to a measurable result.
  • Strong product judgment; you translate user behavior and product opportunities into simple, effective technical solutions.
  • An "extra zero" mindset: you aim for outcomes that are 10x, not 10%, and own the result end-to-end.
  • Self-motivated with strong ownership instincts; you propose ideas, ship features ahead of schedule, and drive improvements without asking for permission.
  • Experience mentoring engineers and raising the technical bar of a team.
  • Genuine interest in and adoption of AI products and willingness to learn quickly.
