About the role
- Trustworthy, consumer-grade agents that redefine human-AI collaboration for millions.
- We're a stealth team of elite founders and AI researchers, with backgrounds spanning Stanford, OpenAI, and DeepMind.
- Make them feel like magic, not infrastructure.
Responsibilities
- Forward-deployed engineers, by giving them backends partners can integrate against without a six-week meeting
- How to design backends for LLM-powered systems where latency, cost, and non-determinism are first-class concerns
- On-device / cloud co-design - when to push compute to the phone and when to keep it on our side
Company info
- Build everyday AGI.
- Software shouldn't wait for commands; it should partner with you, amplifying what you can do every single day.
- WHY AGI, INC.
- We're industry leaders in mobile and computer-use agents, bringing these capabilities to consumer scale.
- Grounded in years of agent research, our AI is designed with trustworthiness and reliability as core pillars, not afterthoughts.
- We are supported by tier-1 investors who funded the first generation of AI giants; now they're backing us to build the next: everyday AGI. (Watch the demo https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ZydjdMeMh3x-QItUPQFbJUbhBW-4-XHa/view?usp=sharing)
- If you see possibility where others see limits, read on.
- Build the systems our agents run on.
- Our agents are only as trustworthy as the backend behind them.
- Every API call, every retry, every queued job is the difference between an agent that feels alive and one that feels like a chatbot.
- You'll own the systems that turn research into product - model orchestration, agent state, partner integrations, the data plane - and you'll make them fast enough, observable enough, and boring enough that the rest of the team can ship without thinking about them.
- This is for the backend engineer who has been the on-call hero before, who has strong opinions about queues and idempotency, and who wants to design infrastructure for a product where the floor is "millions of devices."
- ๐คฉ TASKS YOU WILL OWN
- The agent backend end-to-end - model orchestration, tool-use plumbing, agent state, retries, observability
- The data plane behind every agent action - Postgres schema, caching, queues, event streams - at OEM scale
- Production SLAs, on-call, and the reliability bar for everything the agent touches in the cloud
- ๐ค AREAS WHERE YOU WILL ASSIST
- Research, by shipping their work to real users in days, not quarters - and feeding back what breaks in production
- iOS and Android, by drawing the right line between on-device and cloud so neither side carries the wrong weight
- ๐ SKILLS YOU'LL BE EXPECTED TO TEACH
- How to run a production system you'd happily put your name on - observability, incident response, capacity planning
- ๐งโ๐ SKILLS YOU'LL BE EXPECTED TO LEARN
- The internals of agentic systems from the people who published the canonical papers on them
- What it takes to run agent infrastructure at OEM scale, across Samsung, OPPO, Lenovo, and Vertu devices
