## About the role

This team owns the systems that turn user intent into execution - from chat and tasking to persistent agent workflows. You will define how users delegate work to software, how those systems operate on real-world data, and how they are monitored, constrained, and improved over time. This is not a traditional roadmap role. You will take in incomplete, conflicting inputs from users, stakeholders, data, and systems - and decide what we should actually build.

## What they're looking for

- Synthesize signal into direction. Take in messy, conflicting inputs and determine what actually matters
- Define how agents behave. Shape primitives like objectives, constraints, trust tiers, and evaluation criteria
- Improve output quality. Drive systematic improvements across models, memory, and workflows
- Own product direction end-to-end. Turn ambiguous problems into concrete bets and drive them through delivery
- Work directly with users. Build deep intuition for real-world workflows and needs
- Translate mission signal into product direction. Take in real-world user signal and translate it into clear product direction, including pushing back when needed
