Job Description:

Profound is on a mission to help companies understand and control their AI presence. We're building the foundational agentic layer for modern companies. Our Workflow Runner is the execution backbone that turns complex AI work into reliable, composable workflows. You will shape the core primitives, execution, scheduling, state, and streaming, that power intelligent systems at scale.

Job Responsibility:

  • Build core workflow engine primitives used to orchestrate agents, tools, and dataflows
  • Own the real-time control plane, including streaming events, reliable job orchestration, idempotency, and replay
  • Ship high-leverage systems that turn prototypes into production-grade, scalable workflows
  • Design and ship Rust-first backend services and clean APIs for creating, executing, and supervising graph or DAG workflows
  • Build reliable job orchestration with multiple response modes including blocking, streaming, and fire-and-forget, with durable state
  • Strengthen tenant isolation, security, and access patterns across the platform
  • Improve runtime behavior including scheduling, backpressure, timeouts, retries, and idempotency
  • Evolve schemas and repositories and own migrations, indexing, and query performance
  • Instrument with meaningful telemetry and raise the bar on testing and operational excellence
  • Partner closely with product, frontend, and data teams to deliver high-impact features

Requirements:

  • Strong portfolio or GitHub showing backend or system design depth
  • Proficient in a modern systems language, with Rust as ideal, and comfortable owning services end to end in production
  • Solid experience with SQL and relational data modeling, with hands-on PostgreSQL experience
  • Experience with distributed systems patterns including messaging or streaming using Kafka or NATS, retries, idempotency, and backpressure
  • Familiarity with caching and state systems such as Redis and real-time delivery using SSE or WebSockets
  • Strong grasp of API authentication and authorization, multi-tenancy, and security best practices
  • Pragmatic, collaborative, and product-minded, thriving in a fast, in-person environment
  • Experience building or operating workflow engines, schedulers, or agent runtimes
  • Experience with Postgres RLS and data governance at scale
  • Practical exposure to containerization, CI or CD, and cloud environments
  • Background integrating external AI or model providers and securing provider configurations
  • Experience working with Rust 2024, PostgreSQL, Redis, Kafka or NATS, containers, modern CI or CD, and real-time streaming to clients
What we offer:
  • equity
  • a full range of benefits and perks
