Job Description

ROLE TITLE

We are looking for Virtual Professionals based in the Philippines, India, or United States.

  • This is a fully remote position for the role of AI Systems Builder (Multi-Agent Orchestration & Backend Automation).
  • Applications with an introduction video attached will be prioritized.
  • Due to the fully remote nature of this role, it is important that candidates are comfortable communicating on video calls.

You build and ship production-grade AI systems that run real business workflows end-to-end.

This is not an experimentation or research role. You are building:

  • multi-agent systems
  • workflow automation engines
  • backend infrastructure for AI agents
  • deployed systems used by real estate operators and businesses

You will work inside a small, fast-moving team shipping real systems for real clients—not prototypes, not demos.

You are expected to:

  • unblock yourself without guidance
  • design and implement full-stack AI workflows
  • integrate APIs, databases, and agent orchestration layers
  • ship working systems, not isolated components

If you need step-by-step instructions, rely on tutorials, or struggle turning architecture into deployed systems, you will fail in this role.

Filtering signal: This role is not for candidates who have only used AI tools, but never shipped multi-agent systems in production.

CORE RESPONSIBILITIES (REAL EXECUTION BEHAVIOR)

1. MULTI-AGENT SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT (CORE ENGINEERING FUNCTION)

  • Build and ship multi-agent orchestrator systems using Claude Code / agent frameworks
  • Design agent roles, workflows, and memory structures for real business operations
  • Implement coordination logic between agents (task delegation, state passing, retries)
  • Ensure systems are production-ready (not demos or notebooks)
  • Continuously refine agent behavior based on real-world execution outcomes

2. AI WORKFLOW AUTOMATION ENGINEERING

  • Convert business workflows into automated AI-driven pipelines
  • Build standalone agent SDKs and reusable automation modules
  • Design systems that execute multi-step business processes without human intervention
  • Ensure workflows are reliable, observable, and maintainable in production environments
  • Optimize for failure recovery, not just successful execution paths

3. BACKEND + DATA SYSTEMS (POSTGRES / SUPABASE CORE)

  • Design and implement PostgreSQL schemas for agent systems and workflows
  • Build Supabase-backed applications powering AI agents and automations
  • Ensure data integrity across multi-agent operations
  • Structure databases for real-time agent execution and state tracking
  • Debug and optimize backend performance when workflows break

4. API INTEGRATION & SYSTEM CONNECTIVITY

  • Build and maintain production API integrations across business tools
  • Connect AI agents to external systems (CRMs, property tools, communication tools)
  • Handle authentication, rate limits, retries, and failure states
  • Ensure integrations are stable and production-safe, not experimental scripts
  • Debug end-to-end system flows when integrations fail

5. FULL SYSTEM SHIP & DEPLOYMENT OWNERSHIP

  • Take systems from architecture → build → deployment → production use
  • Package AI systems into usable tools or SDK-like deliverables
  • Ensure systems are deployable, maintainable, and configurable
  • Write clean, production-grade code (not prototypes or notebooks)
  • Maintain and improve systems after deployment based on real usage

6. SELF-DIRECTED ENGINEERING EXECUTION

  • Identify missing requirements without being told
  • Break down ambiguous system requests into buildable components
  • Choose implementation paths independently
  • Debug production issues without escalation dependency
  • Maintain momentum without waiting for structured assignments

REQUIREMENTS (NON-NEGOTIABLE)

  • Proven experience building and shipping multi-agent systems in production
  • Hands-on experience with OpenClaw, Hermes, or equivalent agent frameworks
  • Strong backend engineering experience (PostgreSQL required)
  • API integration experience in real production environments
  • Strong proficiency in Python or TypeScript/JavaScript
  • Comfortable working in CLI, Git, and deployment environments
  • Ability to independently design and implement full systems end-to-end

If you have not shipped real AI systems (not demos), you are not qualified for this role.

BONUS EXPERIENCE (STRONGLY PREFERRED)

  • Supabase production systems
  • React (frontend for AI tools)
  • GoHighLevel or HubSpot integrations
  • Vector databases (Pinecone, Weaviate, etc.)
  • Docker-based deployments
  • Real estate operations system experience

WHAT WE ACTUALLY CARE ABOUT

  • You have shipped working AI systems used in real workflows
  • You understand how to build agent systems that don’t break in production
  • You can design systems, not just code features
  • You unblock yourself without waiting for instructions
  • You build infrastructure that other people rely on
  • You think in systems, not prompts or scripts
  • You deliver working tools, not prototypes

WHAT THIS ROLE IS NOT

  • Not a prompt engineering role
  • Not a chatbot-building or UI-only AI role
  • Not a research or experimentation position
  • Not a no-code automation or Zapier-style builder role
  • Not a junior Python scripting job
  • Not a tutorial-following “AI enthusiast” role
  • Not a role where someone defines every architecture decision for you

POSITION DETAILS

  • Full-time contractor
  • 100% remote (global)
  • Flexible hours (performance-driven, not time-driven)
  • Fast-paced engineering environment
  • Small team, high ownership, high autonomy

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS

Include:

  • Resume
  • Links to shipped systems (required)
    • GitHub repos
    • live tools
    • agent systems
    • deployed workflows

Working systems matter more than resumes.

We will ignore applications without real shipped work.
