About the role

We’re growing our Applied AI team to dramatically increase productivity across Engineering, Sales, Support, and Operations, and to ship AI-powered products that customers rely on directly.

Responsibilities

  • Design and ship customer-facing AI products like ask.workos.com, AI support bots embedded in customer Slack channels, and new surfaces we haven't built yet
  • Build internal tools that become part of people's daily work: agents, automations, and workflows that are stable, observable, and easy to maintain
  • Work on big bets: a unified bot framework, a sandboxed coding harness agent, and infrastructure that lets the entire company ship
  • Use LLMs, embeddings, retrieval, and tool-calling to plug into docs, Slack, GitHub, CRM, analytics, support systems, and internal services
  • Replace repetitive, multi-step manual processes with orchestrated, AI-driven flows that span multiple apps and data sources
  • Stay current on new models and tooling, run focused experiments, and help the team converge on patterns, libraries, and infrastructure that compound over time

Qualifications

  • You've taken AI-powered systems from idea to production and through at least one iteration cycle with real users
  • Strong engineering fundamentals. You're comfortable owning services, data flows, and integrations end-to-end
  • Experience building with LLM APIs
  • You think about failure modes, observability, and ownership, not just whether the demo works
  • Bias toward action. You care less about the model and more about removing real bottlenecks, saving hours, or unlocking workflows the company couldn't do before
  • Comfort with ambiguity and fast change. The problem, the tools, and the "right" patterns are all evolving, you're excited to help define them
