Project: A bootstrapped Israeli startup building a platform that integrates AI employees as native members of mid-sized organizations. AI agents function as full team members, equipped with their own communication channels (Slack, WhatsApp, email, SMS, voice), connected to business tools such as Salesforce, Google Workspace, and Zoom, and capable of participating in meetings. The platform is both model-agnostic and ecosystem-agnostic, designed specifically for non-technical users with a no-code, user-friendly approach. The company already has a working MVP, paying customers, and is currently preparing for a funding round. The founding team brings more than 20 years of experience in AI and machine learning.
Cooperation: long-term engagement, full-time. Stage: New project. MVP is ready; currently scaling to production ahead of a fundraising round. Position: New role. First hire from 8allocate — the Tech Lead will subsequently help recruit the rest of the team (2 backend engineers, 1–2 QA). Timezone requirements: European timezone. Client is based in Israel (UTC+3); overlap with EU working hours is expected. Location requirements: Remote. Ukraine and other Eastern European locations. English: Upper-Intermediate or higher.

Responsibilities: * Design and build multi-agent systems using LangChain/LangGraph in production * Scale the existing MVP to production: monitoring, auto-scaling, error handling, performance optimization * Build and maintain integrations with SaaS platforms and communication channels * Own the full DevOps ecosystem: CI/CD, Git workflows, DB, backups, logging * Establish testing discipline, including LLM evals and regression suites * Implement security by default * Participate in recruiting and mentoring backend engineers and QA * Provide technical advisory to the client: architectural decisions, technology choices
