We know what the world is watching, reading, and thinking about - in real time, at scale, across every screen.

WHAT YOU'LL DO • Build and deploy AI agents using modern agent SDKs (Claude, OpenAI, or similar) with custom tools and function calling • Design and build tool harnesses and execution environments for agents - both on desktop (local CLI, IDE integrations) and in the cloud (containerized, API-driven) • Partner with internal teams across the organization to understand their workflows, identify automation opportunities, and build agents tailored to their use cases • Think critically about LLM capabilities and limitations - understand the differences between models, when to use which, and how to get the best results from each • Develop context engineering strategies - understanding how to give LLMs the right information at the right time within token limits • Build and maintain custom tool libraries that agents can use to interact with internal systems, APIs, and data sources • Deploy and manage agents in cloud environments with proper monitoring, error handling, and cost controls • Optimize LLM costs and performance through prompt engineering, caching, and smart model selection WHO YOU ARE • You’ve built AI agents and shipped them to production - not just prototypes • You’ve deployed agents in cloud environments and dealt with the real-world challenges that come with it • You’ve built tools, harnesses, or scaffolding that agents use to accomplish tasks • You use Claude Code and Cursor daily - you’re deeply comfortable with AI-assisted development, including headless mode, multi-file editing, and MCP server integration • You think critically about LLMs - you understand how they work under the hood, not just how to call an API • You understand the differences between models (Claude, GPT, Gemini, open-source) and can reason about which to use for a given task • You have strong product sense - you focus on what users actually need, not just what’s technically interesting • You’re pragmatic - you ship 80% solutions quickly and iterate based on feedback • You can sit with a non-technical team, understand their pain points, and translate that into an agent that actually helps • You take ownership and drive things from idea to measurable impact • You communicate clearly - you can explain complex AI systems to anyone in the company • You stay current with the rapidly evolving AI landscape and bring new ideas to the team • You’re comfortable working across cloud platforms (GCP, AWS, Azure) and containerized environments • Experience with advanced agent patterns or multi-agent systems • Experience building and configuring MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers • Open-source contributions to AI/ML projects • Familiarity with observability tools for LLM applications • Media, ad tech, or streaming data domain knowledge Samba is an equal opportunity employer.
