About the role

  • It monitors rankings and competitors, finds content and technical SEO opportunities, writes and improves pages, and publishes to the customer's website.
  • It proactively finds work to do, prioritizes tasks, and executes across tools, messaging its manager in Slack when it needs context or approval.
  • We did SEO for Clay, Replit, Hims & Hers, Rho, and others.

Responsibilities

  • Build agent capabilities end to end: planning loops, tool use, prompts and instructions, memory, review workflows, evals, backend services, and customer-facing product surfaces.
  • Design safe action systems across integrations like GitHub, Webflow, Google Search Console, Google Analytics, Notion, and Slack.
  • Build observability and evaluation workflows so we can understand agent behavior, catch regressions, and measure whether Sunbeam is getting better at the job.
  • Ship quickly across the stack. On a given week, you might change agent instructions, add an MCP tool, create a skill to manage memory, tune a review gate, and fix a frontend workflow.

Requirements

  • You have high agency.
  • You are comfortable working across the stack and across levels of abstraction: from "what should the agent do next?" to "why did this Postgres row end up in the wrong state?"

Nice to have

  • Experience at a marketing, sales, or growth AI company.
  • Familiarity with C#,.NET, TypeScript, React, GraphQL, Postgres, or MCP-style tool integrations.
  • Small team, San Francisco office, shipping every day.
  • Nico (Product), previously led growth at daydream and ran SEO for Anthropic, Clay, Replit, and others.
  • Vishruth (Founding Applied AI Engineer), previously a Data Scientist at Klaviyo specializing in NLP, with a research background from Cornell.
  • This role is based in San Francisco and requires in-person collaboration five days a week.
  • Lunch on in-office days.
  • Two retreats a year.

Skills

  • The agent runs 24/7.
  • Marketing services is a $1T/year industry.
  • If AI has automated coding, marketing is next.
  • Fully autonomous agents are still mostly unsolved.

Compensation

  • $180,000-$220,000 base salary range plus equity.
  • Lunch on in-office days.
  • Two retreats a year.
  • Frequent team dinners and outings.

Benefits

  • $180,000-$220,000 base salary range plus equity.
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance.
  • Wellness and learning stipends.
