Build an agent and Sapiom runs everything it needs: infrastructure, capabilities, and cost, handled. Take agents from demo to production. Start free. Backed by Accel.
About the role
As a Staff AI Platform Engineer, you'll help define the technical direction of the platform from the ground up. You'll architect distributed systems that power AI agents in production, establish engineering best practices, and partner closely with leadership to shape both the technology and the company. This is an opportunity to join early and have an outsized impact on the architecture, culture, and product strategy of an AI infrastructure company.
What they're looking for
- 8+ years of experience building large-scale backend systems, distributed systems, or developer platforms
- Experience operating technical leadership at the Staff or Principal Engineer level, or demonstrated equivalent scope and impact
- Strong programming skills in Python, Go, Typescript, or similar languages
- Experience building developer platforms, SDKs, or API-first products that prioritize reliability, scalability, and developer experience
- Experience working with modern AI systems, including LLMs, tool calling, structured outputs, retrieval, or agentic workflows
- Strong systems thinking with the ability to simplify complex technical problems
More about this role
Sapiom is the end-to-end platform that removes barriers to ship and scale agentic products.
We unify what an agent needs to act in the world — compute and sandboxes, memory, identity, spend controls, storage and queues, monitoring — provisioned together as one thing, not handed over as a framework to assemble yourself.
We have assembled a world-class team with deep infrastructure and payments DNA to build the operating system for machines. Our founder ran payments engineering at Shopify for five years and built an autonomous consumer agent company before that. We raised a $35M Series A led by Dragonfly in August, bringing us to $50M total. Accel led our seed; Menlo Ventures and Anthropic are also behind us.
