• Use AI agents as a routine part of writing production code: run several in parallel, get productive quickly in unfamiliar parts of the codebase, and review AI output efficiently by focusing on the risky parts.
• Build your own skills, agents, or tooling when it would make the team faster, and improve the parts of our shared development system your work depends on.
• Know where it is safe to let AI run and where a human must review before anything reaches production, and set that bar for the work you own.
• 5+ years of professional software engineering experience, with a track record of measurable impact in production environments.
• At least one full year of actively using AI tools and agents to write production code, as a core part of your daily workflow rather than an occasional assist.
• Experience shipping customer-facing, AI-powered product features with real users: working with non-deterministic outputs, evaluations, latency, and debugging unexpected model behavior. Building models yourself is not required.
• Experience building your own skills, agents, or developer tooling that made a team faster.
• Sound judgment about when to let AI run and when a human must review before anything reaches production.
• A product-engineer mindset: you can take an open-ended problem, find the right signal from customer data and product partners, and ship a solution that solves the customer's real issue.
• Comfort across the stack, with depth wherever the team leans.
• An eagerness to automate. You look for chances to offload work to AI rather than needing to be convinced.
• Strong technical judgment with a bias toward simplicity and adoption over theoretical completeness.
• The ability to connect technical work to customer and business outcomes, and to communicate that connection clearly.
• Base Salary: $139,000-$208,000\*
• Variable Compensation: Bonus and/or commission eligibility, where applicable.
• Equity: All employees are invited to share in Invoca's success through our stock option program.
• Day-One Health Benefits - Medical, dental, and vision coverage begins on your first day of employment for U.S.-based teammates.
• Mental Wellbeing - Access to mental wellbeing support and an Employee Assistance Program (EAP).
• Wellness Subsidy - Reimbursement that can be applied toward gym memberships, fitness classes, and more.
• Recognition Programs - We celebrate great work through company-wide and team recognition programs, including President's Club and quarterly and departmental awards recognizing innovation, execution, and customer impact.
• InVacation (Sabbatical) - As a thank-you to our long-term team members, we offer a sabbatical after seven years of service.
