[Remote] Software Engineer, GTM AI - Python
Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Telnyx is an industry leader in global connectivity, and they are seeking a Software Engineer to build and operate AI-native backend systems for their go-to-market motion. The role involves designing multi-agent architectures, integrating complex business systems, and managing services from prototype to production.
Responsibilities
- Design and build multi-agent AI systems in Python that handle complex, multi-step business workflows - qualification, email generation, routing, enrichment, and outbound orchestration
- Architect model-agnostic abstraction layers that decouple business logic from LLM providers, enabling flexibility across Claude, GPT, and open-source models
- Build and operate backend services (FastAPI/Flask) deployed on Kubernetes with CI/CD, managing the full lifecycle from deployment configuration to production reliability
- Design tool-use patterns for AI agents - structured function calling, multi-step reasoning, state management across conversation turns, and graceful handling of model failures
- Build integrations across external systems (CRM, enrichment APIs, outreach platforms, Slack) with proper error handling, retries, rate limiting, and data contracts
- Instrument and monitor AI systems in production — build observability into agent behavior, track success rates, detect regressions, and debug non-deterministic failures
- Design and run experiments (A/B tests, prompt variations, model comparisons) with proper evaluation infrastructure to measure what's actually working
Skills
- 2+ years of software engineering experience building backend services in Python
- Production experience building multi-step AI agent systems — stateful workflows where models make decisions, call tools, and operate across multiple turns, not single-shot API wrappers
- Strong understanding of LLM internals as they affect system design: context window management, token budgets, cost/latency/capability tradeoffs across models, structured outputs, and strategies for handling hallucination and refusals
- Experience testing and evaluating non-deterministic AI systems — you understand that assert output == expected doesn't work and have built or used alternatives
- Solid software architecture fundamentals: API design, state management, fault tolerance, and graceful degradation when upstream services fail
- Production experience with containerized deployments (Docker, Kubernetes) and CI/CD pipelines
- Experience integrating with external APIs at scale — auth flows, rate limiting, retries, data normalization, and managing the operational complexity of multiple third-party dependencies
- Proficiency with SQL and data systems for building targeting, enrichment, and analytics pipelines
- Built observability into production systems — structured logging, tracing, alerting, and monitoring that you actually use to debug issues
- High ownership: you deploy your own code, investigate your own incidents, and close the loop between what you shipped and how it performs
- Experience with specific GTM/RevOps systems (Salesforce, Apollo, Lusha, enrichment providers) or similar complex business platforms
- Background in growth engineering, marketing automation, or revenue operations tooling
- Experience with Slack bot development or conversational AI interfaces
- Contributions to or experience with open-source AI agent frameworks
- Familiarity with ArgoCD, StatefulSets, or Kubernetes operations beyond basic deployments
