Description

Staff Engineer

Location: SF Bay Area

Department: Engineering

Location Type: HYBRID

Employment Type: FULL_TIME

Zep is a context engineering platform for AI agents. We help developers build personalized, reliable AI applications by assembling the right context from chat history, business data, and user behavior.

We’re hiring a Staff Engineer to own core backend architecture and execution. This role is for someone who can design and ship low-latency systems at scale, operate them in production on AWS, and build agent-facing capabilities that hold up in high-throughput environments.

Responsibilities

- Ship end-to-end product features: backend services, APIs, data flows, and the supporting UI where needed.
- Build and operate agent-facing capabilities: workflows, tooling, evaluation harnesses, and reliability improvements for real agent systems.
- Own and collaborate on system design and implementation for new components: make pragmatic architecture decisions, document them, and iterate.
- Improve production quality: performance, observability, and operational runbooks on AWS.

Requirements

- Strong backend systems background. You’ve designed and shipped production services with high throughput and strict latency targets.
- Go and Python experience in real systems. You can own critical-path code and performance work.
- Agent building experience: you’ve built agentic applications end-to-end and understand reliability, evaluation, and failure modes in production.
- Hands-on AWS experience operating production systems (deployments, monitoring, scaling, cost and reliability tradeoffs).

Nice to have

- TypeScript experience (frontend or SDK work).
