Ventus AI is looking to scale the core engine behind their AI agents, which automate real workflows in freight and logistics by operating software like humans do, without APIs.
Requirements
- Have built and maintained production systems end-to-end — from idea to deploy to debug to refactor
- Have deep comfort with Python (async, testing, deployment) and modern dev tooling
- Understand the trade-offs in system design and can keep things simple without being fragile
- Experience with agentic frameworks, browser automation, or secure data processing
- Exposure to freight, logistics, manufacturing, or other ops-heavy domains
- Open-source contributions or prior startup/founding experience
Responsibilities
- Design, build, and maintain mission-critical infrastructure for agent orchestration, memory, logging, security, and observability
- Write production-grade Python (and possibly some TypeScript) to power low-latency, fault-tolerant, agentic workflows
- Establish testing, CI/CD, and monitoring pipelines from scratch
- Own system reliability: debugging flakiness, edge cases, and performance bottlenecks
- Collaborate with product, research, and field teams to bring new capabilities to life
- Make key architectural and technical decisions that will shape our core systems
Other
- Thrive in ambiguous, high-autonomy environments where you’re trusted to figure things out
- Have a founder mindset: ownership, urgency, and comfort with chaos
- Are excited by the idea of building agents that operate on messy real-world software instead of APIs
- Lucrative equity — you’ll be early enough to have meaningful upside
- Explosive growth — opportunity to lead, build, and learn faster than anywhere else
