    Job Description

    We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join a rapidly growing AI technology company to help build next-generation AI agents that automate complex business workflows. This opportunity required hybrid work from their downtown Chicago office.

    • Kubernetes experience
    • Experience with vector databases or RAG architectures
    • Startup experience
    • Knowledge of AI observability and evaluation frameworks
