About the role

  • About ClickHouse Recognized on the 2025 Forbes Cloud 100 list, ClickHouse is one of the most innovative and fast-growing private cloud companies.
  • The interesting work now is in the agent layer: systems that can investigate an incident at 2 AM, propose a root cause, and hand the on-call a concise summary by the time they've logged in.

Responsibilities

  • Build agents that investigate incidents. They surface anomalies, answer "why is production broken?", and use ClickStack as their substrate.
  • Write skills, not just prompts. Build a library of reusable skills that captures how our team debugs, finds root causes, writes ClickHouse queries, and runs incident response, so agents pick up the right playbook instead of starting from scratch.
  • Own the agent stack end-to-end. Context engineering, tool design, evals, tracing, cost. You're responsible for whether the agent works in production.
  • You've been building agents long enough to have opinions - about context engineering, tool design, when to use a skill vs. a tool, what evals catch and miss, and where popular frameworks break down.
  • Build agents that investigate incidents.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of software engineering experience, including 1-2 years on LLM-powered systems or agents in production.
  • Experience designing skills (Markdown-based workflow encodings, Anthropic-style or similar) and a clear view on when a skill, a tool, or both is the right fit.
  • Experience with MCP: building servers, designing tools, and thinking through auth, scoping, and observability for agentic systems.
  • SQL proficiency - you can write ClickHouse queries directly.
  • Comfort with Docker and Kubernetes.
  • Experience with prompt caching, context compaction, or other techniques relevant to running agents on production telemetry volumes.
  • Experience with columnar databases and event ingestion pipelines.
  • Familiarity with Go, Rust, or other systems languages for integrations and high-throughput infra.
  • Strong backend skills in TypeScript/Node.js and/or Python. Comfortable in both, even if one is primary.
  • Hands-on experience building agents: multi-step tool use, planning, memory, error recovery. You've shipped them and dealt with the failure modes.
  • Strong evals practice: golden sets, LLM-as-judge, regression detection.
  • Active in open source and the developer community.
  • Built or operated production agents in observability, incident response, or SRE.
  • Strong opinions on agent observability - tracing, cost attribution, eval pipelines, OpenTelemetry for agents - and ideas on how to improve it.
  • Contributed to or maintained an open source AI/agent project.
