About the Company

Turning marketing into a market-domination weapon, we created a new category - the marketplace for future customers. Businesses shop for leads as they shop for products in e-commerce: you see everything about a lead before you buy - full transparency, control, and predictable outcomes. We're the #1 lead marketplace in the USA, and we're accelerating.

About the Position

We're looking for a Senior AI Product Engineer to build the AI operating layer behind our marketplace. You take a valuable but unclear business problem - improve lead quality, cut refunds, automate a manual workflow, extract intelligence from calls - and turn it into a dependable production system end-to-end: investigate, define success, design, build, deploy, and improve on real usage data. You are a one-person AI product team for high-leverage problems, not a spec-taker.

Responsibilities

• Discover high-value product and operational problems by working directly with users, business owners, and internal teams, then frame clear success criteria before writing code.
• Design and ship customer-facing AI features and internal automations across lead quality, matching, prediction, call intelligence, CRM, support, and operations.
• Build agents and workflows that safely use tools, APIs, databases, calls, SMS, email, and other company systems - with human approval where risk requires it.
• Create the context layer around models: instructions, retrieval, memory, structured outputs, tool definitions, permissions, and feedback loops.
• Build reliable event-driven and scheduled automation using webhooks, queues, schedulers, retries, idempotency, audit logs, and graceful fallbacks.
• Create evaluation datasets and automated checks that measure usefulness, accuracy, failure modes, regressions, latency, and cost - before and after release.
• Investigate real production failures and improve the complete system, not just the prompt or the model response.
• Turn successful solutions into reusable components and patterns that support additional iSpeedToLead niches without rebuilding from zero.
• Own architecture, quality, security, and business outcomes - not just the pull request.

Requirements

• Strong record of building and shipping production software end-to-end, ideally in a SaaS, marketplace, or workflow product - with real users and real revenue on the line.
• Strong Python and/or TypeScript, plus solid backend fundamentals: APIs, databases, auth, data models, testing, and deployment.
• Hands-on experience shipping LLM-powered functionality using model APIs, structured outputs, tool/function calling, retrieval, context engineering, and agentic workflows.
• Production automation experience: webhooks, events, queues, schedules, retries, idempotency, monitoring, and failure recovery - not just happy-path demos.
• Practical evaluation skills: test sets, traces, quality metrics, regression checks, feedback loops, and root-causing real production failures.
• Daily fluency with AI coding agents (e.g., Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or equivalent) - you review, test, refactor, and secure generated work, not ship it raw.
• English C1+; our stakeholders, users, and business owners are US-based, and communication must be sharp and clear.
• AI-first by default - if you are not already using AI to 3x your own output, you will be behind the rest of engineering.
• Product ownership and strong judgment in ambiguous, fast-moving environments - you clarify goals, make tradeoffs, and connect every technical decision to a business KPI.

Nice to Have

• Voice AI, call transcription, telephony, SMS, email, CRM, or customer-support automation experience.
• Lead generation, marketplaces, real estate, sales technology, or marketing automation background.
• Ranking, scoring, prediction, experimentation, or data pipeline experience.
• Cloud deployment, Docker, CI/CD, observability, security, and handling sensitive customer data.
• MCP, vector search, LangGraph or equivalent orchestration, Temporal, n8n, or custom workflow engines.
• Track record taking a product or automation from zero to one in a fast-moving startup.

What We Offer

• Impact: Own visible, high-value problems with direct access to decision-makers, users, and production feedback at the core of a product-led, AI-powered marketplace.
• Autonomy: High ownership, low bureaucracy, and real authority to choose tools based on results and define the reusable AI architecture for multiple future niches.
• Flexibility: Remote-first culture with flexible hours and async-friendly communication. 4+ hour overlap with Asia/Dubai required for weekly reviews.
• Compensation: Competitive fixed base salary above the market average.
• Team: Join a smart, passionate team that moves fast, supports each other, and builds cool stuff.
• Time Off: 15 paid vacation days plus 5 paid sick days annually.
• Growth: Unlimited learning policy - paid courses, books, and growth resources.
• AI-Heavy Environment: AI is deeply embedded across prospecting, research, engineering, and workflows.
• Ownership: Real decision-making power and direct ownership of your outcomes.
