Role
**
We’re looking to bring on an Agent Engineer who will architect and build the agentic systems powering FLORA.** You will work closely with the founders to invent how creative professionals interact with AI in a generative age. This is a first-principles role: you’ll design, implement, and scale the backbone of agentic workflows that let creatives orchestrate text, image, and video models seamlessly on FLORA’s infinite canvas.
What You’ll Do
**
**As an Agent Engineer, you’ll design and build the intelligence layer of FLORA — systems that make multi-modal creative workflows powerful, reliable, and intuitive.
You’ll be hands-on across the entire stack — from frontend to backend to infra — collaborating with product and design to ship features that balance technical power, usability, and creative control. As a result, full-stack expertise is required.
Key responsibilities:
- Architect agentic systems that orchestrate LLMs, APIs, and tools across multi-step workflows.
- Implement tool calling, context engineering, memory, and retrieval (RAG) for coherent, reliable agents.
- Build observability, evaluation, and guardrailing frameworks — including automated checks, regression testing, and human-in-the-loop scoring.
- Develop robust retry, fallback, and error-handling mechanisms to make agents production-grade.
- Experiment with fine-tuning, prompt design, and multi-modal integration (text, image, video).
- Deliver polished end-to-end features across frontend (React/Next.js), backend (APIs, Modal), and infrastructure.
Requirements:
- Hands-on experience building agentic systems — e.g. multi-step pipelines, assistants with memory, tool-using agents.
- Full-stack engineering skills: confident shipping production features across frontend, backend, and infra.
- Familiarity with observability, evaluation frameworks, guardrails, and reliability testing for AI systems.
- Experience with memory and retrieval: embeddings, vector DBs, summarization, context management, and RAG pipelines.
- Strong background in orchestration across models, APIs, and tools — including retries, fallbacks, and edge case handling.
- Solid understanding of LLMs, fine-tuning, context engineering, and tool calling.
- Product-minded — you care as much about usability and creative control as you do about technical novelty.
- 5+ years of engineering experience, ideally with enterprise-grade agent systems.
- Python not required, but encouraged.
**Stack
** We're a React Next JS Typescript app using a combination of APIs and Modal for our backend.
