Job Description

The next wave of enterprise software won’t be dashboards or copilots.

It will be Digital Workers, autonomous AI systems capable of executing complex workflows end-to-end. At causaLens, we are building the platform that enables enterprises to deploy these Digital Workers safely and at scale.

Our Digital Worker Factory allows organizations to design, deploy, and manage AI agents that automate decision-making, analytics, and operational workflows across the enterprise. These systems are already being used by global companies including Johnson & Johnson, Syneos Health and Cisco to transform how work gets done.

We are particularly focused on pharmaceutical and life sciences organizations, where AI is rapidly becoming the operating system for commercial analytics, forecasting, regulatory workflows, and medical intelligence.

Backed by $50M+ in funding from Molten Ventures, Dorilton Capital, and IQ Capital, and supported by visionary investors including the CEO of Revolut, causaLens is scaling rapidly. Our team includes leading AI researchers, engineers, and scientists, almost 20% with PhDs.

• Solid understanding of evaluation, reliability, and performance considerations in production AI systems

What you’ll do

• Work directly with enterprise clients to understand complex operational and analytical workflows
• Translate ambiguous business challenges into clear technical strategies and system designs
• Design scalable AI architectures and agentic systems combining LLMs, multi-agent orchestration, and knowledge retrieval
• Break down initiatives into structured engineering plans and drive execution across teams
• Lead technical delivery end-to-end, from architecture through production deployment and iteration
