Actively AI is defining a new category: Intelligence-Led Revenue.
Revenue organizations have always been bottlenecked on human capacity. Reps triage which accounts get attention. Context disappears at every handoff. On any given day, the vast majority of accounts have exactly zero people thinking about them.
Actively addresses this at the structural level. Our platform deploys Per-Account AgentsTM across our customers’ TAM, working 24/7 to research, identify opportunities, and advance next steps without being asked. Leading enterprises including Ramp, Ironclad, and Samsara are already making this shift.
Our co-founders are former Stanford AI researchers, and the team comes from Harvard, CMU, Berkeley, Brex, Scale AI, and Google. We've raised $68M from TCV, First Harmonic, Bain Capital Ventures, First Round Capital, and more.
We’re looking for a Senior/Staff Backend Engineer to architect and build large scale systems that power Actively’s GTM AI agents. These agents continuously reason over real-time customer and external data, generate next-best actions, and execute them reliably across systems with humans in the loop.
In this role, you’ll design the scalable, event-driven, and fault-tolerant infrastructure that makes this intelligence possible — integrating with LLMs, orchestrating complex workflows, and ensuring every action happens with high reliability. This is a foundational role, shaping how production-grade agents operate at enterprise scale.
It’s not often that you can get in on the ground floor of a well-funded startup that’s scaling very fast. That means that instead of following a playbook, you’ll be writing it. Every single day you will be challenged to identify how we can scale and execute on it. You’ll learn what works when you succeed and what doesn’t when you fail. You'll also be in the trenches with an incredibly high caliber, low-ego group of people that are obsessed with building something great.
The base salary range for this full-time position based in San Francisco is: $180,000 - $220,000.

At Actively, you write playbooks rather than follow them. You own outcomes, not just tasks, and see directly how your work changes what customers can do — across a product and go-to-market motion that is scaling fast.
The team is high-caliber and low-ego: people who work from first principles, move with urgency, and care deeply about building something that drives real value. If that's the kind of challenge you're looking for, Actively is the right place.
Actively AI trains custom GTM agents that work 24/7 across every account in your TAM to drive the best action across pipeline generation, deal execution, and expansion. Founded by Stanford AI researchers and loved by scale-ups and enterprises like Ramp, Verkada, Samsara, and Ironclad.
