Principal Backend Engineer (Forward Deployed)

About Decagon Decagon is the leading conversational AI platform empowering every brand to deliver concierge customer experiences. Our technology enables industry-defining enterprises like Avis Budget Group, Block’s Cash App and Square, Chime, Oura Health, and Hunter Douglas to deploy AI agents that power personalized, deeply satisfying interactions across voice, chat, email, SMS, and every other channel. We’re building a future where customer experiences are being redefined from support tickets and hold music to faster resolutions, richer conversations, and deeper relationships. We’re proud to be backed by world-class investors who share that vision, including a16z, Accel, Bain Capital Ventures, Coatue, and Index Ventures, along with many others. We’re an in-office company, driven by a shared commitment to excellence and velocity. Our values — Just Get It Done, Invent What Customers Want, Winner’s Mindset, and The Polymath Principle — shape how we work and grow as a team. About the Team Over the past few years, development of LLMs has evolved at a rapid pace. It’s not enough for our customers to just “set it and forget it” when it comes to AI software. Truly successful AI Agents require hands-on execution, rigorous iteration, and deep technical delivery to reach enterprise-grade performance. We’re creating an Agent Deployment Engineering Org : a specialized technical delivery team responsible for end-to-end execution of AI agent builds. Agent Deployment Engineers own the hands-on work required to deliver best-in-class agents—writing and configuring key components, validating integrations, and ensuring agents perform reliably at scale. This team brings greater specialization and focus to build quality. Agent Deployment Engineers are technical and customer-facing: you’ll interface with senior technical stakeholders on the customer side while also going deep on agent configuration and build execution.
