About the role

  • You're both hands-on and capable of owning the strategic roadmap for AI operations at Kargo.
  • This is a hybrid role requiring onsite presence 4 days per week.
  • Translate business pain points into modular, extensible automation flows that are observable, debuggable, and fault-tolerant

Responsibilities

  • Kargo is hiring an AI Engineer to architect, build, and scale AI-powered products and automations for our commercial organization.
  • Build production-grade LLM applications-agent workflows, retrieval systems, internal copilots-for knowledge surfacing, workflow routing, decision support, and dynamic content generation
  • Maintain a governance model covering prompt engineering standards, agent testing, audit trails, and feedback loops that drive continuous iteration
  • Work cross-functionally with Sales, Client Services, Media Strategy, Marketing, Product, and Ops to discover automation opportunities, prototype quickly, document tooling, and drive self-service adoption
  • Own and communicate the AI Ops roadmap to Data & AI leadership-prioritized by business impact, sequenced by feasibility, and grounded in real discovery with commercial teams

Requirements

  • 5-8+ years in systems automation, internal tools, or process/data engineering, with hands-on experience in orchestration platforms such as n8n, LangGraph, Zapier, or Make
  • Proficiency in Python or JavaScript for custom connectors and scripting, with strong familiarity with SaaS APIs and system interoperability
  • Proven ability to translate between engineers and revenue leadership, earning trust by delivering things that work and staying close to adoption after deployment
  • Experience building production-grade LLM applications using ChatGPT Enterprise and related LLM APIs, including familiarity with evaluation and observability frameworks
  • Fluency with AI-assisted development tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex) to accelerate velocity
  • A builder's instinct and bias for impact-ships fast, iterates on real feedback, knows when to build vs. buy, and measures success by adoption and friction reduction, not lines of code
