Decagon is the leading conversational AI platform empowering every brand to deliver concierge customer experiences.
Our technology enables industry-defining enterprises like Avis Budget Group, Block’s Cash App and Square, Chime, Oura Health, and Hunter Douglas to deploy AI agents that power personalized, deeply satisfying interactions across voice, chat, email, SMS, and every other channel.
We’re building a future where customer experiences are being redefined from support tickets and hold music to faster resolutions, richer conversations, and deeper relationships. We’re proud to be backed by world-class investors who share that vision, including a16z, Accel, Bain Capital Ventures, Coatue, and Index Ventures, along with many others.
We’re an in-office company, driven by a shared commitment to excellence and velocity. Our values — Just Get It Done, Invent What Customers Want, Winner’s Mindset, and The Polymath Principle — shape how we work and grow as a team.
The Agent Orchestration team builds the runtime and model orchestration layer that powers Decagon’s agents in production. This is the orchestration layer that turns workflows, tools and guardrails into a reliable, low-latency, and delightful experience for end users.
At the core of this work is the agent harness: the routing, execution logic, tool orchestration, and control-plane systems that determine how an agent behaves in a live conversation. The team owns the full execution lifecycle of each conversation—from selecting workflows and orchestrating multiple models (e.g., router/planner/supervisor patterns), to coordinating tool calls, enforcing safety constraints, and communicating back to the user.
The team operates across both real-time systems (e.g., voice interactions with strict latency requirements) and longer-horizon execution (supporting more complex reasoning and workflows). Our research shows that an agent’s task execution reliability increasingly depends on the orchestration layer that wraps around it.
This is highly experimental, frontier-style engineering. The team continuously analyzes real-world failures, builds feedback loops through offline evaluation and online experimentation, and iterates quickly to improve quality, reliability, and capability. As model capabilities evolve, the team regularly rethinks system design to push agent performance forward in production.
We’re looking for an Engineering Manager to lead the Agent Orchestration team. This is a highly technical, player/coach leadership role at the core of Decagon’s product. You’ll lead the team responsible for the runtime and control plane that powers every agent interaction—coordinating model reasoning, tool use, and evaluation in production—and own the technical strategy and delivery for the orchestration engine behind every customer conversation.
You’ll hire and develop a high-performing team while staying close to architecture, debugging, and reliability. You’ll partner closely with Research, Infrastructure, Product Engineering, and Agent SWE to translate frontier model improvements into predictable, safe, and scalable agent behavior in real customer environments. Success requires strong people leadership, clear execution in ambiguous problem spaces, and the technical depth to drive correctness and operational excellence.
Build, lead, and develop a high performing team of engineers, including hiring, coaching, and performance management.
Own the technical strategy and roadmap for Decagon’s orchestration engine, balancing speed of iteration with correctness and safety.
Drive architecture for systems that coordinate complex reasoning and action flows at scale.
Set reliability, testing, and observability standards across the orchestration stack, and build an operating cadence that prevents repeated incidents.
Create frameworks and guardrails that enable fast, safe iteration on agent behavior, evaluation, and rollout.
Partner with Product, Research, and Infrastructure teams to define requirements, navigate tradeoffs, and ship multi-quarter initiatives that move core company metrics.
Have 2+ years of engineering management experience leading high performing teams in fast-moving environments.
Have strong technical depth and an IC foundation that enables you to guide architecture, debug complex failures, and make sound trade-offs.
Have experience building distributed systems, execution engines, real-time platforms, or other high scale systems where correctness and reliability matter.
Have a track record of delivering multi-quarter projects through ambiguity, creating clarity for your team and stakeholders.
Care deeply about engineering craft and operational excellence, including testing strategy, observability, and incident learning.
Communicate clearly and collaborate well across Product, Research, and Infrastructure teams.
Experience with agent frameworks, runtimes, orchestration logic, or tool use systems.
Experience with evaluation, experimentation, or model quality measurement systems.
Experience building guardrails for safety-critical or highly reliable systems.
