Why Telta

Telta is an HR technology company helping businesses hire, assess talent, and understand their organizations. We've built a track record working with leading Korean companies and recently secured investment.

Through projects with large enterprises, we've seen where HR teams spend their time and which decisions hold them up. We've developed practical ways to solve these problems. Now we plan to turn that experience into products that small and mid-sized businesses can easily adopt without a large implementation project.

We're defining the product architecture and deciding what to ship first. Join now, and you'll make and implement those decisions yourself. The choices you make will form the foundation of the product.

The role

As an AI Product Engineer, you'll build products that let AI take on HR teams' work. You'll understand problems alongside customers, Solution Engineers, and HR experts, then own the work from design and hands-on coding through launch, production operation, and improvements informed by metrics.

Start with the workflow before designing the interface. Define the task's goal and completion criteria, what AI can decide and execute, and where a person needs to confirm. Build tool selection, multi-step execution, state management, failure recovery, and result evaluation, then design the conversation and interface around that system. Use customer feedback, actual usage, and conversion to paid use to decide what to build next.

What you'll do

Design and build agent execution systems

• Define the goals and completion criteria for delegated HR tasks. Establish what AI can decide and execute, and where human confirmation is required.
• Build execution flows in which AI selects and calls tools to complete multi-step tasks. Implement state management at each step, failure detection and recovery, and methods for evaluating results.

Design conversations and interfaces

• Design conversations that clarify ambiguous requests, maintain context, and ask for confirmation before consequential actions.
• Present results as answers, tables, or charts as appropriate, and build interfaces that make them easy for HR teams to review and edit.

Ship, operate, and improve

• Connect the frontend, backend, and data yourself to ship quickly and operate the product in production.
• Use product usage, conversion to paid use, and customer feedback to improve quality and decide what comes next. Turn problems identified in customer conversations into product requirements.

What we're looking for

• You have 3+ years of software product development experience, or equivalent experience, and you still write code yourself.
• You've built and shipped a product to real users in which an LLM selects and calls tools to carry out multi-step tasks. Using your own work, you can explain what the AI decided and executed, and how you implemented state management, failure handling, and human confirmation.
• You've designed UX for a conversational AI product and improved it through real usage. You can explain how you designed clarification, context handling, confirmation steps, and the presentation of results.
• You've connected the frontend, backend, and data to ship and operate a product in production.
• You've improved a product based on user feedback or business metrics, and you're interested in learning how business customers work.

Experience in either B2B or B2C is welcome. We're interested in the products you've personally designed, shipped, and improved, rather than your job title.

Nice to have

• Experience developing and operating Node.js backends. Our backend currently uses Node.js; experience in other languages is welcome too.
• Experience helping customers adopt a product through customer meetings, proofs of concept, implementation, or conversion to paid use.
• Experience designing and tuning conversation flows for services such as customer support systems or chatbots.
