Forward Deployed Agentic Engineer

About Us

Gumloop is the multiplayer AI agent builder. We believe the people who know the work best should be able to automate it and use what they build to help their whole team do more.

Anyone at a company can build share and optimize agents with any AI model and any integration. Teams can orchestrate those agents across their business while IT keeps full control over data access and spend.

Were a small team building as fast as humanly possible. Gusto Ramp Shopify Samsara Instacart and Opendoor are running agents on Gumloop across their company. Weve raised over $70M from Benchmark First Round Capital Y Combinator Nexus Ventures to scale and are looking for people who care as much as we do to join the team.
