Role Overview:

This role owns the design, delivery, and ongoing behaviour of production AI workflows that automate and augment work across Planet’s internal systems — HR, Finance, Operations, and CRM. You will be accountable not only for shipping the technology, but for the quality of the decisions it makes: building agents, prompts, and retrieval pipelines that business users can trust, and improving them over time through measurement and real-world feedback. The impact is direct — reliable, auditable AI that reduces manual effort and raises the quality and speed of everyday decisions across the business.
 

What you will do:

• Design and build production-grade AI workflows that integrate across internal systems (HR, Finance, Operations, CRM).

• Implement the orchestration logic — triggers, retries, fallbacks, and human-in-the-loop patterns — so workflows run reliably, observably, and auditably.

• Develop and maintain the AI agents, prompts, retrieval pipelines, and decision logic that power those workflows.

• Own model behaviour in production: accuracy and usefulness, failure modes, and edge-case and ambiguity handling.

• Iterate on model performance using evaluation frameworks, feedback loops, and real-world usage data.

• Take accountability for decision quality and outcomes — not just technical execution — defining and tracking success metrics such as accuracy, resolution rate, and time saved.

• Diagnose cases where systems are technically “working” but producing poor outcomes, and close the gap.

• Partner with Data Engineering on shared platforms (infrastructure, CI/CD, data pipelines, security and governance) and contribute to shared standards, schemas, and best practices for AI systems.

Who you are:

• Strong software engineering background (Python or similar), with a track record of building production systems — not just prototypes.

• Hands-on experience with AI / ML systems (LLMs, classifiers, decision models, or similar).

• Experience integrating APIs and working with distributed systems.

• Experience designing prompts, retrieval pipelines, or ML inference workflows.

• Solid understanding of model evaluation, monitoring, and feedback loops; comfortable working with both structured and unstructured data.

• Product-oriented — cares about outcomes, not just shipping code; pragmatic about AI and focused on what works in production.

• Comfortable owning ambiguity and making trade-offs.

• Languages: English

• A plus, but not required: workflow orchestration tools (Temporal, Airflow, Step Functions); experience building internal tools or agents; familiarity with regulated or enterprise environments; exposure to MLOps or AI evaluation frameworks.
