About the role
We are looking for an Engineering Manager - AI Agents with 7+ years of experience to own and scale FurtherAI's AI organization. You'll lead the team building production LLM-powered agents that automate critical workflows in the trillion-dollar insurance industry. This is a rare opportunity to join a fast-growing, a16z-backed startup as the engineering leader who shapes the technical direction of the entire AI org. Both founders are engineers, and you'll have an outsized say on product direction while building your team from the ground up.
What will you be doing?
-
Own and grow the AI org, scaling it into three teams: AI infrastructure (routing & reliability), Agent intelligence (evals, shared tools, multimodal pipelines), and Agentic products (customer-facing AI assistant, long-running workflows)
-
Set technical direction for building agents that hold up in real production on real customer money — including model routing, multi-agent orchestration, and reliability
-
Recruit, mentor, and retain a world-class team of AI engineers, hiring the leaders beneath you as the org scales post-Series A
-
Stay deeply technical — still in the code and architecture, setting the bar by example
-
Push the frontier of what AI agents can do for insurance as the field evolves
