AI Agent Engineer

About the role

Benchmark Sports is redefining golf training with real-time simulation and AI coaching. The company is profitable, growing rapidly, and expanding globally. Joining now means being part of core systems used by millions of athletes and shipping products that change how people train.

Core Expectations

• Strong ML fundamentals
• Up to date with latest agentic coding workflows
• Full stack experience with good taste for UI/UX
• Worked on either cutting edge implementations of LLMs or shipped LLM products used by real users

Who Thrives Here

Young, ambitious builders with a blank-slate mindset. Founder energy or campus incubator DNA. Someone who has shipped things end-to-end and owns the outcome. Strong preference for candidates from top technical environments (Stanford, Berkeley, Cal Poly, CMU), but we'll hire the best builder regardless of pedigree. If you need a roadmap to do your best work, this role will be a bad fit.
