Team Lead - Agentic

Description

Lead and grow a team of 3-5 engineers building Firmus’s construction plan-review agents – day-to-day execution, hiring, growth, performance, and culture. Build agents hands-on using Firmus’s tool-calling framework, turning document-intelligence capabilities into reliable plan-review checks. Own agent quality - design and build evaluation tools and frameworks for measuring agent performance on a non-deterministic product. Own delivery - translate product priorities into sprint execution, remove blockers, and keep the team shipping fast. Shape the product - learn customers’ plan-review needs and turn them into agent capabilities, in close partnership with product, research, and customer-facing teams. Be a key voice in Firmus’s engineering leadership as we scale the agentic organization.
