As a senior engineer on our AI product team, you'll architect the Campaign Builder and Agent experiences marketers and sellers open every day to go from idea to personalized assets in minutes. You'll partner directly with product, design, and the founders to define what an agent-first GTM platform should feel like, and your calls on architecture, evals, and guardrails compound across thousands of customer accounts. This role is in person in New York City, five days a week, and we ship weekly. What you'll own The core agent surfaces. Architect and ship the Campaign Builder and Agent experiences end-to-end. Frontend, backend, prompts, evals, the whole stack. Reliability on top of LLMs. Make non-deterministic models feel deterministic at the surface. Build the retries, fallbacks, and orchestration so the customer never sees the failure mode. Evals and guardrails. Define how we measure quality, catch regressions, and keep brand and tone consistent across thousands of customer accounts. Speed and feel. AI products live or die by latency and the loop between intent and output. You'll obsess over both, and use coding agents and agent networks to ship f

About Ramp Ramp is building the smart infrastructure for finance teams, embedded in the transaction flow of every dollar a business spends. We automate how over $200B in annualized spend flows in and out of 70,000+ companies: authorizing payments, flagging risk, categorizing spend, and closing books. The problems are high-stakes, data-dense, and unforgiving. We hire people with high agency and high urgency. We look for slope over intercept. We care less about where you trained and more about what you’ve built. At Ramp, everyone is a builder who owns problems end to end and makes consequential decisions that shape the outcome. The median Ramp customer saves 5% and grows revenue 16% in their first year – far in excess of businesses operating without Ramp. We believe every ambitious company deserves the same. If you want to build systems that directly shape how companies move and manage billions, Ramp is the place to do it.
