Responsibilities
- You'll collaborate across product, infra, and design to build agentic features that let creatives speak their idea into existence while maintaining control.
Requirements
- Hands-on experience building agentic systems - e.g. multi-step pipelines, tool-using agents, assistants with memory, or similar.
- Familiarity with evaluation frameworks (automated checks, regression testing, human-in-the-loop scoring) to ensure system reliability.
- Experience with memory and retrieval (vector DBs, embeddings, summarization, context management).
- Strong background in orchestration across models, APIs, and tools - including handling retries, fallbacks, and edge cases.
- Comfortable reasoning about multi-modal workflows (text, image, video) and their integration in a user-facing product.
- Ability to work across the stack (frontend, backend, infra) and collaborate closely with product and design.
- Product-minded - you care as much about usability and creative control as you do about technical novelty.
- 3+ years of engineering experience
- Bonus: experience with creative tools, generative models, or node-based interfaces.
- Working at FLORA
- Office policy
- We work in-person at the Domino Refinery building in Williamsburg, Brooklyn-with views of the East River.
- Compensation and benefits
- Competitive salary and meaningful equity. We also offer an Equinox membership and comprehensive health and dental coverage.
