About the role
Key Responsibilities
- Build, tailor, and operate AI agents and assistants for internal functions, owning features end-to-end from design through deployment and production operation (including testing and CI/CD).
- Build and maintain knowledge-base pipelines: collecting, structuring, and keeping current the content that AI systems rely on to be accurate and useful.
- Integrate AI systems with company tools and data sources through well-structured, safe APIs and connectors.
- Apply the crew's security guardrails and responsible-AI practices: access control, data privacy, and human-in-the-loop safeguards.
- Build user-facing tooling and interfaces where the work calls for it, spanning UIs and the backend services behind them.
- Instrument what you ship: adoption, quality, and cost metrics that show whether a solution is working.
- Gather feedback from internal users, identify friction points, and turn them into concrete improvements.
- Keep owned systems reliable, observable, and maintainable; participate in incident response and RCA for owned services.
- Provide context and clarity through documentation and runbooks so others understand what's built and why.
- Contribute to the crew's shared frameworks and to AI-assisted engineering practices a
