Staff AI Product Engineer role at focusing on AI-native development and product building.

Обязанности

The greatest engineers today aren't just writing code faster—they're spending more time solving problems and building products that couldn't have existed a year ago.
Our team works at the frontier of AI-native development where curiosity, product thinking, rapid experimentation and judgement are embedded in our ways of working.
As a Staff Engineer, you'll be one of our core product builders and cross-team technical leader. You’ll set the technical direction behind our most advanced AI capabilities: agents that can act with increasing autonomy on real work. You'll raise the bar for AI engineering and reliability across teams, and take on the hardest, highest-leverage problems in the company, being deployed onto whatever is most critical at the time. This is the most senior IC seat in the company and a chance to define what AI-native engineering means here - and beyond.
You'll have access to the latest frontier models, rethink traditional software patterns and work closely with customer-facing teams to quickly turn ideas into shipped products.
We are willing to sponsor engineers relocating from overseas to Australia.

About Us 🚀
At Relevance AI, we’re building the home of the AI workforce.
Our mission is simple: empower every team to delegate meaningful work to AI agents that think, act, and collaborate like experts.
With Relevance AI, anyone can create and manage intelligent agents that handle workflows, decisions, and collaboration - all within one unified platform. Our technology already powers industry leaders such as Canva, Databricks, Confluent, Autodesk, Lightspeed, Rakuten, Aveva, Qualified, and Activision Blizzard, helping them scale excellence across operations, marketing, and sales.
We’re backed by Bessemer Venture Partners, Insight Partners, Peak XV, and King River Capital, and raised our Series B in April 2025 to accelerate growth and push the boundaries of agentic automation.
Headquartered in San Francisco and Sydney, we operate on a hybrid model and thrive on curiosity, collaboration, and execution - we move fast, think big, and win together.
In 2025, we were proud to be named LinkedIn’s #1 Startup in Australia.
If you want to define how the world works with AI, join us.
We believe that AI is fundamentally changing software and what it means to be an engineer. That means our team works differently:
AI engineering (coding agents, loops, eval) is a core part of every engineer's workflow.
Engineers own product areas and customer problems end-to-end, not just implementation.
We prototype quickly, validate with customers, and iterate relentlessly.
We ship continuously, often multiple times a day.
We care about product impact as much as technical quality.
If you enjoy experimenting with frontier models, trying new tools, and constantly improving how you build software, you'll fit right in.
Paulwyn, Head of Engineering
Peter, Engineering Manager
Set technical direction on load-bearing decisions for frontier AI products; unblocking teams and raising the standard of design and review.
Deploy onto our hardest problems, ship in days what takes traditional teams months.
Raise the bar on AI-native engineering practices; defining the agentic workflows, context engineering, and eval discipline for all of engineering to adopt.
Own the challenging parts of making autonomous agents trustworthy in production; turn incident patterns into systemic improvements.
Partner closely with product, design and customer teams to decide what we build, kill low-value work and ship outcomes that truly move the needle.
Interview, mentor and level up other engineers to multiply their impact.
Who We’re Looking For 🧠
In one-line: a staff AI-native builder; the person a team turns to for their hardest problems - product-minded, deep AI expertise and raising the bar in small fast-moving teams.
You'll likely thrive here if you demonstrate:
AI-Native Building: You operate at the frontier of what is possible with coding agents — using AI in novel ways to decompose problems, orchestrate build-run loops, and implement systemic improvements to keep evaluation and review quality high.
Product Thinking & Judgement: You think like a product owner and care deeply about the right thing being built to meet customer outcomes, not tickets. You can talk about who used your product and why it mattered.
Deep Engineering Craft. You bring technical depth and strong judgement, particularly in backend, APIs, distributed systems and making load-bearing decisions.
Cross-Team Leverage. You’ve improved teams beyond your own; unblocking others and setting standards that other people have adopted.
Delivery speed and reliability. You ship continuously, balancing pace with quality — and you take evals, on-call, and root-cause fixes seriously.
Belief in our mission. You raise the standard for people around you, you're comfortable with ambiguity and pace, and you believe a smaller AI-native team can out-build a larger, traditional one.
Experience in our exact stack is not required — what matters more is how fast you can pick up a new one, and how deeply you already use AI coding agents as part of your daily workflow.
