Hi, I'm Mark, and I lead Jane's AI Transformation team. I've been at Jane for 6 years, and our team's mission is to build the platform that turns every person at Jane into an AI-powered builder.
At Jane, we believe AI should be human-in-control, privacy-conscious, and mission-aligned. We're not chasing hype - we're building infrastructure that helps the helpers do their best work. Our mantra: automate the ordinary so we can focus on the meaningful.
As a Staff AI Tooling Engineer, you won't just build internal tools - you'll help architect Jane's AI platform from the ground up. That means designing the knowledge systems that let agents discover and use context securely, building the orchestration layer that connects our core systems, and enabling teams across Jane to create their own AI-powered workflows. You'll work closely with Support, Finance, Recruiting, Operations, and Product to turn focused pilots into scalable, trustworthy solutions.
This role sits at the intersection of platform engineering, applied AI, and organizational transformation. You'll help define how 700+ people work with AI every day, by building both the platform and the tools to help them succeed.
What Impact We're Looking for You to Make
- Build Jane's AI platform infrastructure: Design and implement the foundational systems - knowledge graphs, context management, secure integrations - that enable teams to build and deploy AI agents confidently.
- Enable transformation, not just optimization: Partner with teams to identify opportunities where AI can fundamentally change how work gets done, not just make existing processes 10% faster. We're aiming for 10x improvements through reimagining workflows entirely.
- Connect and orchestrate: Integrate core systems (HubSpot, Helpscout/Intercom, HRIS, Looker/Snowflake, GitHub, Jira, Slack) into a coherent platform where context flows securely to the agents and people who need it.
- Shape our approach: We're still making foundational platform decisions. You'll have real input into the tools, patterns, and standards that define how AI works at Jane for years to come.
- Build a culture of builders: Create documentation, patterns, and examples that help non-engineers across Jane become confident AI builders. Your success is measured partly by how many people you enable.
What Experience We're Looking For
- 10+ years of software engineering experience, with meaningful exposure to AI/ML systems, LLM integration, or agent-based architectures.
- You provide technical leadership and are able to remove friction and amplify the impact of the people around you.
- Strong backend engineering skills (Python, TypeScript, or Go). You write clean, maintainable systems that others can build on.
- Experience with context engineering patterns: RAG architectures, knowledge graphs, embedding systems, or similar approaches to giving AI systems the right information at the right time.
- Familiarity with agent frameworks, orchestration platforms, or workflow automation systems. You understand how to build AI that takes action, not just generates text.
- A strong security and compliance instinct. Ideally you've built systems in regulated environments (healthcare, finance, or similar). You think about data flows, access controls, and audit trails as core design concerns.
- Comfort with ambiguity and emerging technology. The AI landscape shifts fast; you stay curious, experiment thoughtfully, and adapt.
- Clear communication skills. You can explain AI capabilities and limitations to non-technical teammates and build trust through transparency.

Compensation & Benefits
At Jane, we’re committed to paying fairly, clearly, and above all, paying for growth. This role has an annual salary range of $158,400 to $247,500. While that is a large range, it is intentional. It reflects the full growth journey someone might take in the role, from developing skills early on to becoming highly proficient and ultimately achieving excellence.
Most new hires join at the accomplished stage, which for this role represents an annual salary of $188,100.
