The role of Software Engineer, Agents & Automations involves designing and maintaining core capabilities for the North platform, enabling customers to create AI-powered workflows and automations.
Responsibilities
- Design, build, ship, and maintain core capabilities for North’s Agents & Automations platform
- Build product and platform features that help users create, run, debug, evaluate, and improve agents and automations
- Own features end-to-end, from technical design through implementation, testing, launch, and iteration
- Work across the stack, from frontend product surfaces to backend systems, depending on what the product needs
- Make practical technical decisions that balance speed, quality, depth, and user impact
- Collaborate closely with product, design, modelling, customer-facing teams, and other engineers to define the right outcomes and ship measurable improvements
- Use AI actively in your work, while staying intellectually engaged and accountable for the quality and reliability of what you ship
- Example problems you might work on include helping users turn natural-language intent into a working automation, adding richer analytics for deployed agents, creating better debugging tools for failed runs, or designing workflow primitives that make complex enterprise automations easier to build
Skills
- You have built, shipped, and operated production software used by real users or customers
- You are comfortable working across backend, frontend, product, data, and infrastructure boundaries
- You have strong product judgment, pay attention to product details and care deeply about whether your work helps the end user
- You bring high agency: you act, tinker, learn quickly, and drive change without waiting for perfect instructions
- You move quickly while maintaining a high bar for correctness, maintainability, and user impact
- You communicate clearly, document important decisions, and collaborate well across functions
- You can advocate for a point of view, change your mind when the evidence changes, and commit once a decision is made
- You are excited to use AI to do your best work, while staying accountable for the systems you build
- Our stack includes Python, TypeScript with React, Postgres, and Kubernetes
- We care more about strong fundamentals, product judgment, agency, and learning ability than prior experience with every part of the stack
