uses knowledge. The role This is a hybrid product engineering and GTM role for someone who wants outsized impact at the intersection of all three. You'll own the direction of our API surface — shaping products like real-time monitoring, vertical feeds, and the next generation of agent-native retrieval primitives — while simultaneously sitting across the table from our most important customers to win, deploy, and expand high-value accounts. You'll be the technical voice customers trust, and the customer voice the engineering team trusts. The insights you bring back from the field will directly shape what we build next. This role demands high agency, deep customer obsession, and the rare ability to move fluidly between writing a technical product spec, debugging an integration on a customer call, and pitching a CTO on why our API should be core to their stack.
