About the job

Attentive® is the AI marketing platform for 1:1 personalization redefining the way brands and people connect. We’re the only marketing platform that combines powerful technology with human expertise to build authentic customer relationships. By unifying SMS, RCS, email, and push notifications, our AI-powered personalization engine delivers bespoke experiences that drive performance, revenue, and loyalty through real-time behavioral insights.

Recognized as the #1 provider in SMS Marketing by G2, Attentive partners with more than 8,000 customers across 70+ industries. Leading global brands like Crate and Barrel, Urban Outfitters, and Carter’s work with us to enable billions of interactions that power tens of billions in revenue for our customers.

With a distributed global workforce and employee hubs in New York City, San Francisco, London, and Sydney, Attentive’s team has been consistently recognized for its performance and culture. We’re proud to be included in Deloitte’s Fast 500 (four years running!), LinkedIn’s Top Startups , Forbes’ Cloud 100 (five years running!), Inc.’s Best Workplaces , and the Human Rights Campaign Foundation's Corporate Equality Index !

About the Role

Attentive sends billions of messages each year for more than 8,000 brands, helping drive tens of billions of dollars in revenue for our customers. Behind every message is a series of decisions: who should receive it, what it should say, when it should send, which offer to include, and which channel to use.

We’re building the next generation of that decision-making system: an autonomous marketing agent designed to transform how brands plan, execute, and optimize their marketing. Marketers will set the goals and boundaries, while the platform develops strategies, takes action, measures results, and continuously improves over time.

In this role, you’ll build the engineering systems that make that vision possible. You’ll work at the intersection of agentic planning, real-time behavioral signals, platform capabilities, experimentation, and reliable execution at massive scale. Your work will help turn increasingly sophisticated AI systems into dependable products that can make and act on millions of marketing decisions.

The opportunity extends beyond Attentive’s own channels. Through APIs and MCP, we’re building toward a future where this intelligence can operate across a brand’s broader marketing stack, including external email providers, advertising platforms, websites, and custom agents.

This is an opportunity to help evolve Attentive from a platform that powers messages into one that coordinates and continuously improves a brand’s broader marketing program.

What You’ll Accomplish

3+ years managing engineers, 8+ years engineering
Has seen and helped build engineering excellence at a top-tier organization. Sets an ambitious bar for talent and execution, knows how to hire and lead an A+ team, and brings strong technical opinions with the curiosity to challenge their own assumptions.
Understands the interface between product engineering, ML, and data science, and is fluent enough to be a real partner. Understands what a model needs from the platform, without needing to own the model.
Has shipped agentic or LLM-backed systems and knows the production tradeoffs of tool use, orchestration, and retrieval
Strong on distributed, data-heavy systems: streaming, event-driven, cost-aware inference
Tracks the field closely, has a real view on what shipped last quarter and why it matters, and has killed their own work when something better arrived
Still writes code. Hires well, gives direct feedback, holds a high performance bar, and builds accountability without drama.

Your Expertise

AI at massive data scale: You know how to build intelligent systems that take advantage of rich, high-volume behavioral data and translate it into better decisions and experiences.
Startup mindset, scaled environment: You move quickly, embrace ambiguity, and take ownership while building within the resources and reach of an established Cloud 100 company.
High-impact ownership: You’re energized by working on one of the company’s biggest strategic bets, with visibility and impact across senior leadership and the board.
Technical and product leadership: You want meaningful influence over the team, architecture, technical direction, and roadmap, not just a predefined set of engineering tasks.

You'll get competitive perks and benefits , from health & wellness to equity, to help you bring your best self to work.
