About the role There’s a wide gap between an agent that works in a demo and one that works across millions of live transactions. Closing it is the job. You’ll embed with the teams and customers who depend on AI — risk, fraud, collections, payments, support, developer experience — and design, build, and ship agentic systems into their production environments. You’ll also help build the platform underneath: Paytm’s AI inference platform (Pi) and the agentic runtime, orchestration, and tooling that lets agents reason, plan, use tools, and run multi-step workflows safely.

Secure Every Identity, from AI to Human Identity is the key to unlocking the potential of AI. Okta secures AI by building the trusted, neutral infrastructure that enables organizations to safely embrace this new era. This work requires a relentless drive to solve complex challenges with real-world stakes. We are looking for builders and owners who operate with speed and urgency and execute with excellence. This is an opportunity to do career-defining work. We're all in on this mission. If you are too, let's talk. Staff FullStack Engineer, AI Acceleration Team The AI Acceleration Team The AI Acceleration Team builds AI features right where identity and agents meet. Companies are handing real access to AI agents faster than their controls can keep up, and two problems show up first: how do you authorize what an agent is allowed to do on someone's behalf, and how do you keep both people and agents from being phished? We take those on directly. Our North Star: to get AI right, you have to get identity right. We are a new team, and we shape the problems as much as we solve them. We bring a product mindset to the work: we dig into what customers actually need, define the outcome, and build toward it. We move fast, stay close to the real problem, and are honest about what works. The Staff FullStack Engineer Opportunity As a Staff FullStack Engineer on the AI Acceleration Team, you will own the technical build for solving agent authorization and phishing resistance. You see what needs doing and start it. This is 0-to-1 work, meaning you will move on problems before they are fully specified, always keeping customer success as the ultimate bar. You will help shape which problems we take on, make architectural calls that outlive any single project, and set the technical bar for how we work. You will enforce least privilege for what agents can do and make phishing-resistant access the default. We build with Vercel and AWS, and you will likely work heavily in JavaScript/TypeScri

We are looking for a Lead, Data Development, AI Platform to lead the team building and operating the technical platform behind Hootsuite's Analytics MCP. This includes routing infrastructure, orchestration services, agent infrastructure, and data pipelines that enable reliable AI-driven analysis at scale. You will set technical direction for the team, strengthen engineering practices, and translate target architecture and integration standards into secure, production-grade systems that Data Analytics & AI teams can confidently build on. This is a hands-on technical leadership role. You will stay close to the code while owning delivery outcomes, engineering quality, and the team's culture of craft and accountability. You will develop strong, well-reasoned recommendations on how the platform and orchestration architecture should evolve, seek approval at the Senior Manager and Director level, and then guide the team through disciplined execution. You will also partner closely with AI Context & Integration and AI Data Architecture to ensure the platform, context layer, semantic layer, and downstream agent workflows operate as one coherent system. WHAT YOU’LL DO: Lead the design and delivery of the orchestration layer that connects the Analytics MCP platform across its most complex surfaces, including query execution across schemas and models, federated data access between the data warehouse and external source systems, and multi-step agent workflows for cross-functional business processes. Develop clear technical recommendations for platform and orchestration architecture evolution, align those recommendations with Senior Manager and Director-level direction, and guide the team through disciplined execution within the approved architecture. Own the operational reliability, scalability, quality, and observability standards for core Analytics MCP components, including routing and agent infrastructure. Guide the team to build and operate these systems to prod

The Auth0Lab Team We are a small team of engineers exploring new Auth0 products and features ideas. We take things from 0 to 1 and we look to shape the future of identity. Our team has had a big role shaping the identity industry: we were all early at Auth0, which shaped how devs do authentication as part of Auth0Lab we incubated Auth0 FGA which redefined how authorization is done across the industry and we also incubated Auth0 for AI agents which defined auth for AI agents We are currently focused on enabling builders and companies of any size to ship production grade AI agents, by helping them with identity and security. We believe data, and developing our own models will play a huge role in this. The role We are looking for a Principal Applied AI Scientist to take product ideas from 0 to 1 and define how we do new AI product innovation. You'll have a lot of independence: you set the technical direction for AI, and experiment fast with minimal process. With that comes real ownership: you'll be the first AI/ML person in the team, so you'll often be figuring it out without a research org behind you. This is a hands-on role. Publishing papers and open sourcing results might happen as it helps us and the industry, but is not our main goal. We have a lot to teach you about security, auth, developer products and many other things. And we also want to learn from you. Join us to ha

At Lyft, our purpose is to serve and connect. We aim to achieve this by cultivating a work environment where all team members belong and have the opportunity to thrive. The Safety and Customer Care (SCC) team at Lyft manages over 1.7 million monthly human and AI interactions and serves as Lyft's primary direct touchpoint with riders and drivers. We handle critical infrastructure that powers both human associates and AI agents to make riders and drivers feel safe and comfortable while riding or driving with Lyft, transforming every support interaction into a moment of genuine connection. Agentic AI is at the center of how we scale that mission. We fine-tune and align open-source models, build AI-powered support agents, and develop end-to-end AI agents for safety case management, systems that reason over complex, high-stakes cases and drive them to resolution. SCC brings together ML, data, backend, and product engineers alongside data scientists and operations partners to transform these systems. As a Machine Learning Engineer on the SCC team, you will fine-tune and align models and build AI Agents that power how riders and drivers get help. Your work spans the full loop: post-training open-source models for our domain, composing them into multi-step agents, and building the evaluation that proves they are safe to ship in a customer-facing, safety-critical setting. Post-train and adapt open-source LLMs for SCC use cases using SFT, LoRA, and preference-tuning methods (RLHF, RLAIF, RLVR). Design and build AI-powered support agents and end-to-end agents for safety case management using LangGraph or equivalent agentic frameworks. Own the evaluation data flywheel, offline and online, that defines what "good" looks like and build benchmarks for the team to hill-climb. Turn interaction feedback into training data and learning signals, closing the data flywheel that continuously improves the models. Responsibilities: Conduct literature review and build post-training fra
