San Francisco, United States Sierra Full time
About Us:
  • At Sierra, we're building a platform to enable every company in the world to build their own autonomous AI agents for everything from customer service to commerce. We are primarily an in-person company based in San Francisco.
  • We are guided by a set of values that are at the core of our actions and define our culture: Trust, Customer Obsession, Craftsmanship, Competitive Intensity, and Family. These values are the foundation of our work, and we are committed to upholding them in everything we do.
  • Our co-founders are Bret Taylor and Clay Bavor. Bret was most recently co-CEO of Salesforce, which had previously acquired the company he founded, Quip. Before founding Quip, Bret was the CTO of Facebook. Bret was one of Google's earliest product managers and one of the co-creators of Google Maps. Bret currently serves as Board Chair of OpenAI. Before founding Sierra, Clay spent 18 years at Google, where he most recently led Google Labs. Earlier, he started and led Google's AR/VR effort, Project Starline, and Google Lens. Before that, Clay led the product and design teams for Google Workspace.

  • Build Sierra's Platform: At Sierra, we believe agent development is an evolution of software development that needs new tools and processes, and we're on the frontier of inventing those.
  • Scale with Growth: We're a fast-growing business with many large enterprises as customers. Our software, capabilities, and practices must continue to scale as we grow, including serving infrastructure, tooling, and development processes.
  • Form the Foundation of Trust: Our customers trust us to serve their end-users; building and maintaining that trust requires a high bar on security, reliability, and performance.
What You'll Bring:
  • A passion for being on the frontier of AI products.
  • Pride in building reliable, maintainable, and secure systems that scale.
  • Motivation and high-agency to drive outcomes - we have a high-autonomy culture and each team member has lots of agency to overcome obstacles and achieve customer impact.
  • Alignment to our company values throughout your work, notably finding a balance between Craftsmanship, Customer Obsession, and Competitive Intensity.
  • 4+ years hands-on experience building production products and systems.
  • Degree in Computer Science or related field, or equivalent professional experience.
Even Better:
  • Experience building AI-powered products.
  • Experience with data engineering, MLOps, and LLMOps.
  • Comfortable building and shipping full-stack solutions.
  • Experience with React, Typescript, and Go.
  • Leadership experience on technical projects or teams.
Our Values:
  • Trust: We build trust with our customers with our accountability, empathy, quality, and responsiveness. We build trust in AI by making it more accessible, safe, and useful. We build trust with each other by showing up for each other professionally and personally, creating an environment that enables all of us to do our best work.
  • Customer Obsession: We deeply understand our customers' business goals and relentlessly focus on driving outcomes, not just technical milestones. Everyone at the company knows and spends time with our customers. When our customer is having an issue, we drop everything and fix it.
  • Craftsmanship: We get the details right, from the words on the page to the system architecture. We have good taste. When we notice something isn't right, we take the time to fix it. We are proud of the products we produce. We continuously self-reflect to continuously self-improve.
  • Intensity: We know we don't have the luxury of patience. We play to win. We care about our product being the best, and when it isn't, we fix it. When we fail, we talk about it openly and without blame so we succeed the next time.
  • Family: We know that balance and intensity are compatible, and we model it in our actions and processes. We are the best technology company for parents. We support and respect each other and celebrate each other's personal and professional achievements.
