About the Company

Ventus AI is building the next generation of AI Teammates, specializing in automating complex workflows for enterprises.

Responsibilities

• Design and build mission-critical infrastructure for agent memory, logging, security, and observability
• Write robust Python (and some TypeScript) to power low-latency, fault-tolerant, agentic workflows that can recover from UI changes and session timeouts
• Build the communication layer that allows AI Teammates to proactively flag exceptions and collaborate with humans in real-time
• Own the end-to-end reliability of agents navigating 'messy' legacy software without APIs
• Make key decisions on testing, CI/CD, and monitoring pipelines from scratch
• Work on a platform designed to scale across diverse industries—from Healthcare and Insurance to Finance and beyond

Requirements

• Proficiency with Python (async, testing, deployment) and modern development tooling is essential
• You have built and maintained production systems end-to-end—from initial architecture to deployment and refactor
• You enjoy ambiguous environments where you are trusted to figure out the 'how' and 'why'
• You understand the trade-offs in system design and can build systems that are simple yet resilient
• You approach code with a sense of ownership, urgency, and comfort with the 'chaos' of a 0-to-1 startup

Qualifications (Preferred)

• Experience with agentic frameworks, browser automation (Playwright/Puppeteer), or web-scraping at scale
• Experience in secure data processing (SOC 2, HIPAA environments)
• Prior startup/founding experience or significant open-source contributions
