AI Engineer (Agents Lead)

tambo · US · $180k - $240k

Actively hiring Posted 5 months ago

Role overview

You'll own the agent systems that make Tambo work. That means building the runtime, improving how agents reason and act, and figuring out what's possible when AI meets visual interfaces.

We're not looking for someone who's "interested in agents." We want someone who's built them.

Responsibilities

  • Build agent architectures that are fast, reliable, and actually pleasant to work with
  • Research and ship techniques for agent reasoning, planning, and tool use
  • Create evaluation pipelines so we can measure whether agents are getting better or worse
  • Talk to users. Understand what's broken. Fix it.
  • 5+ years shipping software
  • You've actually built agents or LLM-powered apps (not just played with them)
  • You understand what LLMs can and can't do
  • You're comfortable with ambiguity. We're five people. There's no playbook.
  • Experience with TypeScript
  • Open-source or developer tools background
  • You've written or published stuff about agents
  • You've built or worked on coding agents

About the company

Tambo is an open-source toolkit for building agents that render your React components. We're five people, pre-seed, building infrastructure for AI-native apps. Everyone operates like a mini-founder for their area.
