Full Stack Product Engineer - Agentic AI

Job description

## **Why this role / Why now** Software development is changing. The traditional model where engineers manually write every feature is being replaced by **agentic systems that design, generate, test, and ship software continuously**. At Vori, we’re not building traditional software. We’re building the **modern operating system for grocery**, and the next phase of that platform is **agentic infrastructure**. Systems of AI agents that help retailers run their stores and help our own engineering teams ship faster. Our long-term vision is the **self-driving store**: an operating system where intelligent agents continuously optimize pricing, inventory, merchandising, and operations. To build that future, we also need to transform **how software itself is created**. That means evolving from a company that ships features to a company that **orchestrates agents that ship features**. Every engineer at Vori is now an **AI Product Engineer**: • Designing agent workflows • Building context systems and knowledge layers • Creating feedback loops that improve automatically • Shipping products where AI is a core part of the system You’ll work across product, design, and infrastructure to turn ideas into **production AI systems that retailers rely on every day**. ## What you’ll do Design and ship **agentic product systems**, not just software features. Partner with product managers, designers, and customers to identify problems where **AI agents can meaningfully improve workflows**. Design and implement **agent architectures** including reasoning, planning, tool use, and feedback loops. Build the infrastructure that powers AI systems including: • orchestration frameworks • context pipelines • evaluation frameworks • knowledge systems • event-driven architectures Work across the full stack from backend orchestration and data pipelines to user-facing interfaces that make AI systems understandable and trustworthy. Ship fast prototypes, run experiments, and turn promising ideas into **production systems used by retailers at scale**. Continuously integrate emerging AI capabilities and tools to increase both **product intelligence and engineering velocity**. Improve how Vori builds software by helping the organization adopt **agentic development workflows** including AI-assisted coding, testing, debugging, and design. Contribute to the evolution of Vori’s **agentic development platform** including infrastructure, tooling, and internal standards. ## **What we’re looking for** You are an engineer who wants to build **AI-native products**, not bolt AI onto existing systems. 3–8+ years building production software systems. Strong ability to build across the stack including backend services, data pipelines, and user-facing applications. Experience working with or deep interest in technologies such as: • LLM APIs • agent frameworks and orchestration systems • vector search and retrieval systems • evaluation and feedback pipelines • event-driven systems You think in **systems**, not just endpoints. You move quickly from idea → prototype → production. You care deeply about **customer outcomes**, not just technical novelty. You’re excited about shaping how teams build in an **AI-native engineering organization**. You have a maker’s mindset: you thrive on prototyping, iterating quickly, and owning features from zero → one → scale. ## **Why Vori** - Mission-driven team building tech that helps local businesses thrive - Backed by top investors and advisors from Stripe, Uber, Palantir, and Toast - Real revenue, real growth, and a massive market opportunity
