About Gumloop

Gumloop is the multiplayer AI agent builder. Let anyone at your company build agents with any AI model, any integration while IT controls access. Backed by Y Combinator.

About the role

Work directly with customer teams and executives to identify and scope high-value AI opportunities. Map the process, connect the systems, and structure the data so agents run reliably in the customer's environment.

What they're looking for

  • ~4+ years of technical experience, with a track record of shipping useful agents or connected systems past a prototype
  • A technical foundation, ideally in Computer Science, Mathematics, Software Engineering, Data Science, or equivalent hands-on experience
  • Experience deploying or implementing software in enterprise environments, including process mapping and working with customer data
  • Comfort with JSON, JavaScript, Git, MCPs, and data-structure conversations, enough to build and debug in the field
  • Clear communication with technical and non-technical audiences, from frontline users to executives
  • Judgment under ambiguity: you pick the problem that matters and get hands-on rather than waiting to be scoped

About Us

Gumloop is the multiplayer AI agent builder. We believe the people who know the work best should be able to automate it, and use what they build to help their whole team do more.

Anyone at a company can build, share, and optimize agents with any AI model and any integration. Teams can orchestrate those agents across their business, while IT keeps full control over data, access, and spend.

We're a small team building as fast as humanly possible. Gusto, Ramp, Shopify, Samsara, Instacart, and Opendoor are running agents on Gumloop across their company. We've raised over $70M from Benchmark, First Round Capital, Y Combinator, Nexus Ventures to scale and are looking for people who care as much as we do to join the team.
