## About the role

The AI Transformation Office partners with departments across Yext to improve business outcomes through 30 to 60 day transformation sprints. As an AI Transformation Engineer , you build the production systems that make that real: retrieval, answer drafting, routing and evaluation on live data, plus the APIs, automations and pipelines around them. Each sprint ends with a handoff to the team that owns the outcome. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- 3 to 8 years in software engineering, integration development or automation engineering
- Production experience with a workflow platform such as n8n, Zapier or Tray.io, building automations that other teams rely on
- Experience designing reliable autonomous agents: agent frameworks and patterns such as tool calling, orchestration, guardrails and human escalation, with eval feedback loops that keep output high quality and consistent
- Python or TypeScript for the work a platform cannot do, with API design skills and an understanding of how software is operated: monitoring, error handling, version control and deployment discipline
- Hands-on production use of LLM APIs (Anthropic, OpenAI or Google), including prompt design and structured outputs
- Retrieval experience: vector databases such as Qdrant or pgvector, chunking and grounding
