About The Role

As an AI Product Engineer, you will create new products and features end-to-end which directly contribute to G2’s key organizational goals. Your responsibilities will center around building and delivering AI and agent-first products and features to production with confidence in their performance. As a technologist, you will be a key voice in defining and refining product concepts to take advantage of opportunities afforded by new tech & greater industry developments. You will adopt industry-leading agentic engineering techniques and leverage “agent-first” ways of working to deliver products, reflecting the realities of today’s software development lifecycle.

In This Role, You Will: 

Build AI and agent-first products and features [60%]:

  • Contribute across the full software stack to deliver user journeys to production, owning implementation quality from architecture to release

  • Design and build agents that apply prompts, context, tools, and model reasoning to fulfill user journeys, generate content, and automate processes

  • Apply sound software engineering and system design principles to produce solutions that are observable, maintainable, scalable, and production ready

  • Validate solutions against functional requirements using both traditional QA methods, model-based evals, and agent tracing to ensure quality is measurable and reproducible

  • Incorporate agentic software engineering techniques into the development workflow across the SDLC, from planning, design, implementation, testing, and maintenance

Actively participate in product definition as a technologist [35%]:

  • Drive product definition with designers and PMs: ideate, explore, and prototype with stakeholders, then cut down possible options to arrive at deliverable, but well-rounded solutions

  • Wholly conceive and ship features & MVP iterations early in the product definition phase that directly advance high-visibility organizational goals

  • Strike the right balance between investment in UX quality and tending to practical business needs through the product development process.

  • Partner with other engineering stakeholders to identify what technology makes possible, and what makes implementing a given product or feature hard. Bring that perspective into project scoping and prioritization

Be a source of influence for other engineers on the team [5%]:

  • Share knowledge, techniques, and agentic software engineering practices in async formats and dedicated venues, like technical discussions and team meetings

  • Champion the use of AI solutions for engineering and product tasks, accelerate product velocity and team’s execution

Minimum Qualifications:

We realize applying for jobs can feel daunting at times. Even if you don’t check all the boxes in the job description, we encourage you to apply anyway. 

  •  6+ years of professional programming experience in web application and backend environments

  • Expert-level proficiency in Typescript/Javascript or Python; strong working knowledge of modern web application frameworks like React, Next.js, or Rails

  • Hands-on experience building AI and agent-powered features and systems using frontier models from OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google

  • Understanding of the strengths and limitations of frontier models and open weight models

  • Regular use of agent harnesses like Claude Code, Codex, Opencode, or Pi as part of the daily software development workflow

  • Experience with continuous delivery through feature flagging and trunk-based development

What Can Help Your Application Stand Out:
  •  Experience deploying or fine-tuning open-weight models for specific use cases

  • Hands-on experience with agent orchestration frameworks
