About the Role

Join Campfire as a Staff AI Engineer to build production AI agents that help customers get real accounting work done. You’ll combine strong software engineering fundamentals with hands-on experience developing and operating agentic applications, from automating financial workflows to helping customers understand and act on their financial data. This is a hands-on technical leadership role where you’ll shape our agent architecture, ship customer-facing features, and establish engineering practices for reliability.

  • Automate financial workflows.
  • Help customers understand and act on their financial data.
  • Shape agent architecture.
  • Ship customer-facing features.
  • Establish engineering practices for reliability.
  • Work closely with engineering, product, and design to turn ambiguous problems into software.
  • Own agent quality in production through evaluations, tracing, monitoring, and debugging.
  • Balance accuracy, latency, cost, and complexity in agent design.
  • Choose appropriate solutions (agent, deterministic workflow, or combination).
  • Lead complex initiatives.
  • Make architectural decisions across teams.
  • Mentor engineers.
  • Raise engineering standards while staying close to the code.
  • Experiment, iterate, and ship fast.
  • Take ownership end-to-end, from prototyping to deployment and monitoring.
  • Improve AI agents based on real usage.
  • Collaborate closely with engineering, product, and design.
  • Communicate technical decisions clearly.
  • Help other engineers grow.

Requirements

  • Strong software engineering background.
  • Substantial experience designing, building, and operating production backend systems.
  • Proficiency in writing maintainable Python.
  • Sound judgment in APIs, data models, distributed systems, and testing.
  • Hands-on experience shipping LLM-powered agents used by real customers.
  • Experience with tool calling, orchestration, retrieval, and integration with application data and workflows.
  • Practical judgment around agent permissions, data access, human approvals, and recovery from partial failures.
  • Experience owning consequential production systems.
  • Ability to explain tradeoffs, failures, and lessons learned from shipped systems.
  • Experience taking AI agents beyond demos and prototypes.
