If you love building AI agents, wiring systems together, and watching whole teams stop doing by hand what a machine can do better, faster, and cheaper, and you want to make a whole company AI native rather than ship a slick demo, keep reading.
You'll be the person who makes Vidalytics AI native from top to bottom. You'll build the agents, the chains, the prompts, the reusable skills, and the cross system automations that let every team punch way above its weight. You'll report to the CEO. LFG!
You'll start where the money is, on the revenue teams (sales, marketing and customer success), then take it across the whole org. You’ll work with the stakeholders who will use your workflow automations on a daily basis, to achieve the best solutions.
Most importantly work w/ each team member to help them become AI Native themselves. Which tools they should be using, how they can build upon your ideas, or even spearheading projects of their own that you ensure the success of from a technical perspective.
Build AI agents and chains that do real work end to end, not chatbots that just talk.
Write, version, and test prompts like code. Build reusable skills the whole org can run.
Stand up cross system automations (n8n, Zapier, and custom code) that wire our tools together so work flows without a human babysitting it.
Make each team at Vidalytics AI native,. Not just automating work, but helping each team member become AI Native - knowing which tools to use and how to use them. Where they’re self sufficient to continue automating their jobs.
Ship internal tools and automations that make the company more efficient and effective. You stay hungry for more, always improving what we build and use.
Build evals and observability so every AI system is measured, monitored, traced, and cost controlled. If you can't measure it, you can't ship it.
Ground AI outputs in our own company data (retrieval / RAG) so they're accurate, not confidently wrong.
Diagnose failures, kill hallucinations, and build the guardrails that keep systems reliable in production.
Help with AEO / GEO where it moves the needle.
Requirements
(The must haves)
You’re able to choose the right tool for the job. Which AI tool, LLM, agent is the best answer you can figure out wihtout endless tinkering. You care whether the work gets faster, cheaper, or better, not whether it uses the trendy thing.
You've already shipped this kind of work in production. This is not a learn on the job role nor is it for the hobbiest. We expect real results, right away. We’re already doing all of this ourselves but need an expert level person to take ownership.
AI is a young field, so we expect only a few years of hands on AI experience, but it has to sit on top of strong, relevant broader engineering experience, and you must have built and run real AI systems that other people depend on.
You can actually code, and not just with Claude lol. You're comfortable with databases, APIs, and MCP, wiring systems together for real, not just clicking boxes.
You build evals and observability by default. You measure, monitor, trace, and control cost as a matter of habit.
You hold a production grade reliability bar. You ship systems that keep working for months, not demos that impress once and break the next day.
A ready to show portfolio, or concrete examples of what you've built and the results it delivered.
Your working hours overlap strongly with US Eastern time. We can discuss further.
You’re not token-wise, prompt foolish.
You're fluent across the frontier models, (Claude is our primary, ideally it is yours), and you know which model to reach for and why (cost, latency, context, reliability, specific use cases, etc.).
You use tools like Claude Code and Claude Cowork daily, and not just a prompt
You're comfortable with AI native hosting and deployment, for example Vercel.
You're hands on with automation tools like n8n and Zapier, and you know when to drop them and write custom orchestration instead.
You ground AI outputs in real data with retrieval / RAG so they're accurate and don't hallucinate.
Most of your availabe working hours overlaps (or can) w/ the Eastern US time zone.
Nice to Have
(Not required, but a plus)
Basic security and data protection know how. When you automate things, you don't want a free for all where anything can touch whatever data. Not a deal breaker.
AEO / GEO experience.
Deeper software engineering chops.
Exposure to our stack: HubSpot, Fathom, Slack, Google Workspace, PostHog, Intercom, BigQuery, GCP, Vercel, v0, Lovable, Github.
You’re a passionate tinker who loves this field and playing with new tech, but you can also shut down your internal shiny ball syndrome and GSD (get shit done).
You translate between business problems and AI systems. You ask the right questions, fill the gaps, and turn messy business needs into working automations.
You’re organized. You speak ROI. You’re familiar with marketing, sales and customer success workflows in particular as well as other functions of a modern tech company.
You're biased toward shipping fast. You deliver in small, valuable chunks that compound.
You're loyal to outcomes, not hype. You don't care how cool the tech is. You care whether it saved time, made money, or removed a human bottleneck.
You measure everything. Evals, cost, latency, reliability. If it isn't measured, it isn't real.
You thrive on vague specs and can coordinate the rapid ideas of a choatic visionary. You can talk out ideas, bring structure to projects and don’t need everything spoon fed to you or spec’ed out in pretty user stories.
High performance company culture. You won't be a cog in a machine. You'll be a key member of a high performance team that gets shit done. This is a place to grow and realize your potential, no matter where you are in your career.
No office politics. We're small and flat. No dancing around sensitive topics or diverting resources from other teams. We're direct, we're honest, and we're here to accomplish big audacious goals.
We value your ideas. At Vidalytics, my door is always open. Need help? Let's talk. Have a vision for the future of the company? I want to hear it. Think I suck at my job? Help me grow.
Rest and relaxation. Employees get 20 days of PTO.
Professional development. Want to keep learning? Vidalytics pays for classes, conferences, and more.
You're more than an employee, you're a person. Every coworker you meet is committed to treating you with respect and kindness. You won't hear stuff like “It's just business.”
This is a resume making position, where you'll learn a lot and carry real responsibility. You don't have to wait for someone to die or retire to move up, like in a megacorp.
Entrepreneurial to our core. Not only are we a startup, but we need intrapreneurs who will help us scale, and we plan to start sister corps over time to form a portfolio of companies you could help found.
Vidalytics' Values (Yes, We're Actually Serious About These)
Play to Win. We're competitors. We do what it takes to win. That means we will fail and we will lose, but we want to do those things fast so we can win, because winning is on the other side of mistakes.
Scrappy. We're a startup and it's chaotic. This isn't the government. You need to learn fast, move fast, and handle it. If you want an easy job, go work at the government.
Meritocracy. The best idea wins, not the person it came from. You can be direct and transparent with anyone. Start with analysis, form hypotheses, test small, measure results, iterate, and scale big with data. We can't have perfect data, so once a decision is made, get on board.
Own Yourself. We do what we say, and we own what we've done. Mistakes happen. The worst thing is when someone doesn't own and learn from them. You trust us. We trust you.
Self Actualization. This is a place for hyper learning. We want to scale, and you need to scale with us. That doesn't always mean climbing a ladder. It means upleveling skill, closing gaps, growing, and being self actualized.
Conscious Teamwork. No politics. No bullshit. Instead, integrity, emotional intelligence, transparency, and curiosity. Attack ideas, not people.
Cheers,
