What You’ll Be Part Of

Circle is committed to visibility and stability in everything we do. As we grow as an organization, we're expanding into some of the world's strongest jurisdictions. Speed and efficiency are motivators for our success and our employees live by our company values: High Integrity, Future Forward, Multistakeholder, Mindful, and Driven by Excellence. We have built a flexible work environment where new ideas are encouraged and everyone is a stakeholder.

What You Will Do

  • Partner with internal functional leaders and subject matter experts to identify high-friction processes and high-value opportunities to redesign how work gets done using AI.
  • Rapidly prototype, ship, and iterate agent workflows that drive measurable improvements in speed, quality, or efficiency.
  • Build trust with non-technical stakeholders through clear communication, demos, and practical enablement.
  • Design and maintain evaluation and feedback loops (e.g., LangChain-based evals) to assess quality, reliability, and safety.
  • Capture what works and turn it into reusable patterns, playbooks, templates, and internal tooling.
  • Surface insights from field work to inform broader AI strategy, product direction, and organizational design.
  • Model strong engineering hygiene: documentation, versioning, monitoring, and continuous iteration.

Who You Are

  • You have a bias toward action: you’d rather build, test, and learn than wait for perfect clarity.
  • You enjoy being a fresh set of eyes inside complex organizations and questioning “the way we’ve always done it.”
  • You’re comfortable working with non-technical partners who may be cautious or less knowledgeable about AI, and know how to meet them where they are.
  • You balance creativity and pragmatism: bold ideas, grounded execution.
  • You take ownership from first sketch to real-world impact.
