Agentic-AI Harness Engineer

Requirements

• A track record of ML-research or strong, research-adjacent ML engineering.
• Experience with in-context learning, building agentic systems, applying ML models in complex, dynamic environments.
• Strong software engineering skills in Python and hands-on fluency with PyTorch.
• Sound judgment around evaluation, observability, reliability and production trade-offs.
• The ability to work directly with customers, researchers and product stakeholders.
• A pragmatic, outcome-oriented mindset: you optimize for dependable capabilities that users can actually adopt.
• We are primarily hiring at senior level. We are also open to exceptional candidates with fewer years of experience who can demonstrate comparable depth, judgment and ownership.

Nice to have:

• PFNs, synthetic data or probabilistic models.
• Weights & Biases, model registries, CI for models or comparable MLOps tooling.
• SDK or developer-tooling design.
• Prior startup, design-partner or 0-to-1 product experience.
• Own model releases, monitoring and rollback patterns as the production footprint grows.
• Experience with model serving, APIs, containers and cloud infrastructure.

Benefits

🚀 Where This Can Go

You will define how kausable ships ML: the patterns, tooling and standards between research and production. As the team grows, the role can expand into technical ownership of the model-to-product stack or leadership of a small ML product group. The trade-off is part of the job: shipping quickly matters, but only when the resulting system remains measurable, reusable and dependable.
