Senior Full-Stack + Agentic AI Engineer at Myzone Ai · Remote only · 3 - 20 years · $20K - $35K / yr · Profitable · Remote only · Posted 9 Aug 2026

Senior Agentic Engineer — Ai1 Platform (Operations)
Team: Operations · Type: Full-time · Location: Fully remote (global, async-first)
Who we are
MyZone AI builds and runs Ai1 — a managed, multi-agent AI platform that gives each client their own isolated, always-on team of AI agents working across the channels and tools they already use. We're a small, AI-first, high-trust team that ships like a much bigger one. We work fully remote and async — what you ship and how clearly you write matter more than your hours.
The role
You'll join the Operations team.
- Agentic engineering — complex agent skills and workflows, multi-agent orchestration, custom integrations, and the prompting and guardrails that make autonomous agents reliable.
What you'll do
Build agents that do real work
- Design complex, reusable skills and multi-step recipes that automate entire business processes — production automations, not demos.
- Architect multi-agent workflows: delegation, parallel execution, and agents that hand off and reassemble work.
- Build custom MCP connectors and API integrations for any tool that doesn't have one yet.
- Engineer robust prompts, human-in-the-loop controls, and built-in QA so automations are safe to run autonomously.
- Ship automations as self-contained installers that deploy across many client instances with zero rework.
Own application code end-to-end
- Own one or more services in our modular platform (Node/Express backends, React frontends) — schema, API, and UI.
- Ship features across CRM, operations, pipeline, reporting, onboarding, assessments, and chatbots.
- Contribute to our Next.js portal (Next.js 15, TypeScript, Prisma, PostgreSQL).
- Keep your components healthy: clean migrations, green CI, solid tests.
Set the bar
- Work clean: feature branches, real PRs, green CI, small changes, semantic versioning.
- Be security-conscious by default — credentials are treated like credit-card numbers; high-risk actions route through human review.
- Mentor, set patterns, and raise the team's technical level.
Who we're looking for
Must-haves
- 5+ years of professional software engineering with strong full-stack depth: Node.js / TypeScript and modern React.
- Hands-on experience building AI agents in production — tool/function calling, orchestration, memory, and evaluation. You've shipped something that uses an LLM to reliably do real work.
- Fluency with the Anthropic / Claude API (or equivalent) and real depth in prompt/context engineering.
- Strong with PostgreSQL and pragmatic API design.
- Able to own a service end-to-end and ship independently in a low-oversight, async environment.
- Excellent written communication and sound judgment around security and autonomous actions.
Bonus
- Built MCP connectors, agent frameworks, or similar orchestration layers.
- Next.js 15, Prisma, Vercel, monorepos (pnpm / Turborepo).
- Light DevOps: Linux VPS, PM2, nginx, CI.
- Used coding agents (Claude Code–style tools) to build real things.
- Integrations: Slack/Teams apps, Twilio, Google Workspace, GitHub.
How we work
Fully remote, global, async-first — no required location. Small, high-trust, and low-bureaucracy, so you'll own real work and thrive without hand-holding. Everyone here builds automations, versions their work, and maintains what they ship.
MyZone AI is an equal-opportunity employer. We hire the best person for the work, wherever they are.

Build complete applications rapidly across any technology stack, select the right tools for each problem, and define clear criteria for prototype-to-production transitions.
• Generative AI: Architect RAG systems for complex use cases across teams, implement advanced techniques (hybrid search, reranking, query expansion), mentor engineers on RAG best practices, and establish RAG standards. Lead evaluation strategy across teams, establishing annotation guidelines, training human-calibrated LLM judges, and building evaluation pipelines that connect tracing to datasets to experiments.
• People: Build high-performing teams across your area, navigate complex interpersonal dynamics, foster psychological safety, and create environments where diverse perspectives are valued. Influence through communication at all levels — from frontline to executive. Handle difficult conversations skilfully and train engineers in your area on effective communication.
• AI-Augmented Development: Optimise AI tool usage across teams in your area, train engineers on AI-augmented and agentic engineering workflows, evaluate new AI development tools, and establish practices that balance AI speed with verification rigour.
• Scale: Design complex multi-component systems end-to-end, evaluate architectural options for large initiatives across teams, guide technical decisions for your area, and mentor engineers on architecture. Create debt reduction strategies across teams, influence roadmap decisions to include debt work, and teach engineers when to accept debt for speed versus when to invest in quality.
• Documentation: Define documentation standards across teams in your area, create documentation systems and templates, train engineers on spec-driven development, and ensure documentation quality across projects. Lead pattern generalization initiatives, defining criteria for when to generalize versus keep custom.
• Reliability: Define reliability standards across teams in your area, drive post-incident improvements systematically, design capacity planning processes, andmentor engineers on SRE practices.
