Full Job Description

📋 Description

• Work directly with customers and internal stakeholders to design, build, and deploy AI-powered solutions that integrate Remote’s platform with customer systems and workflows.
• Turn ambiguous, real-world operational challenges into production-grade implementations including data pipelines, workflow automations, tool integrations, and agentic services.
• Own end-to-end customer outcomes from technical discovery through deployment, including reliability, performance, observability, and incident response.
• Build AI/LLM-enabled solutions using prompt+tool design, RAG, retrieval patterns, evaluation frameworks, latency/cost trade-offs, and reliability practices beyond prototypes.
• Develop measurement systems for AI behavior including success metrics, test harnesses, golden datasets, regression suites, and guardrails for quality, safety, and privacy.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with Product, Engineering, Sales, and Customer Success teams to ship high-quality solutions and upstream reusable components into the product roadmap.
• Translate customer feedback, edge cases, and constraints into actionable product inputs that shape future platform development.
• Create leverage by turning one-off customer solutions into repeatable playbooks, reference architectures, templates, and internal tooling.
• Operate with high autonomy in a remote-first, async environment with strong documentation culture and minimal hand-holding.
• Work with real customer data to validate outputs, quantify impact, and iterate quickly based on evidence and feedback.
• Navigate complex enterprise ecosystems including HRIS, payroll, finance ops, IT, identity/access management, and compliance constraints.
• Communicate clearly and structurally in writing to explain technical trade-offs to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Expect up to 10% travel for customer engagements, with the majority of work performed remotely.
• Engage with global customers across time zones, requiring flexibility to overlap with their working hours as needed.

🎯 Requirements

• Demonstrated experience shipping production software (backend and/or full-stack) and owning it in production (on-call mindset, debugging, instrumentation)
• Strong integration and systems thinking: APIs, event-driven systems, webhooks, auth (OAuth/service accounts), data modeling, idempotency, and failure modes
• Applied AI/LLM experience beyond prototypes: prompt+tool design, RAG and retrieval patterns, evaluation, latency/cost trade-offs, and reliability practices
• Ability to operate in ambiguity: go from “problem statement” to “shipped solution” with minimal hand-holding
• Clear, structured communication in writing; ability to explain trade-offs to technical and non-technical stakeholders
• Experience with enterprise environments (security reviews, compliance constraints, procurement, change management)

🏖️ Benefits

• Work from anywhere
• Flexible paid time off
• Flexible working hours (async culture)
• 16 weeks paid parental leave
• Mental health support services
