As a Senior Software Engineer on the MarTech Engineering Team, you'll be a forward deployed engineer embedded in the marketing organization, building production AI agents that solve real campaign, content, social, ABM, and performance problems. You'll work shoulder-to-shoulder with marketing domain experts (SMEs) — sitting in their workflows, learning their systems, and turning their expertise into agents that go live and stay live. Your remit spans the full lifecycle: rapid prototyping with SMEs to validate ideas, building the integrations and skills needed to ship a working pilot, and hardening pilots into production-grade agents that operate reliably at scale. When something is missing — a CRM that doesn't expose what you need, a data source not yet in the warehouse, a guardrail that doesn't exist — you'll either build a pragmatic workaround to unblock the pilot or translate the gap into a clear, prioritized requirement for our partner platform team — the engineers who own the underlying marketing systems, data plumbing, and AI-native tooling — to address. You sit at the seam between domain expertise and platform infrastructure, and your job is to make sure neither side waits on the other. The role demands solid technical judgment: when to build vs. wait, when to abstract a one-off solution into a reusable skill, and how to ensure agent outputs translate into safe, brand-aligned, and factually correct actions across a complex marketing stack. Success is measured by the volume and quality of marketing work that agents are actually doing in production — not by demos, not by POCs, but by agents that marketers trust to do the job. This is a fantastic opportunity to build the agentic layer of one of the world's largest commercial real estate platforms from the ground up, and to see your work change how marketing operates at global scale.

We're optimizing for three things ahead of tool-specific experience: solid technical fundamentals, a pragmatic problem-solving disposition, and strong cross-audience communication. The agent tooling landscape changes every few months — what we can't easily teach is how someone thinks, ships, and explains under uncertainty. If you have those three, we'll happily back you while you skill up on whichever runtime, framework, or model provider this quarter favors. You have a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent work experience You are proficient in English, both written and verbal, sufficient for success in a remote and largely asynchronous work environment You have 3+ years of software engineering experience working in production systems, including meaningful time integrating against enterprise APIs (CRMs, CMSes, DAMs, ad platforms, marketing automation tools, analytics) You have hands-on experience with modern LLM APIs across providers — including prompt engineering, tool use / function calling, structured outputs, and context engineering — and you've worked with enough of them to know that the underlying patterns transfer even as the specific APIs evolve You have experience with agent system components: multi-step reasoning, tool orchestration, memory, error recovery, and human-in-the-loop escalation paths You've worked through some of the hard parts of agent engineering firsthand — hallucination grounding, tool
