New

Staff Engineer, AI & Business Operations

El Segundo, California, United States

The Company:

Faraday Future (FF) is a California-based mobility company, leveraging the latest technologies and world’s best talent to realize exciting new possibilities in mobility. We’re producing user-centric, technology-first vehicles to establish new paradigms in human-vehicle interaction. We’re not just seeking to change how our cars work – we’re seeking to change the way we drive. At FF, we’re creating something new, something connected, and something with a true global impact.

Your Role:

As Staff Engineer, AI & Business Operations, you will be responsible for building an enterprise-grade AI Agent platform that elevates large model capabilities from an “information generation tool” to “executable business productivity,” driving AI to play a deep role in the company’s core business processes and operational decision-making. You will lead the design and implementation of an enterprise-level Agent system similar to OpenClaw, connecting AI models, enterprise data, and business systems to deliver an end-to-end closed loop: task understanding → data retrieval → decision generation → automated execution. The platform will serve sales and commercial systems and gradually expand to enterprise operations and management scenarios.

Key Responsibilities:

  • AI Agent Platform Development: Design and implement an enterprise-grade AI Agent platform (Agent Runtime) supporting task understanding, planning, multi-step execution, and state management (memory). Build a unified Tools Layer that encapsulates enterprise APIs, data services, and operational capabilities, enabling Agents to securely invoke CRM, ERP, data platforms, and other systems. Design multi-Agent and multi-step collaboration mechanisms to support automated execution of complex business workflows.
  • Workflow Automation & Orchestration: Based on OpenClaw or similar frameworks, build cross-system task orchestration capabilities to achieve a closed loop from AI-driven insights to business execution. Design secure and controllable execution mechanisms including approval nodes, human-in-the-loop collaboration, and rollback strategies. Drive AI automation in business processes such as customer follow-up, task generation, data updates, and process triggering.
  • AI Enablement for Sales & Commercial Systems: Build AI Copilot and Agent capabilities to support sales operations, lead management, and customer engagement. Integrate with CRM, CPQ, order management, and customer service systems to achieve deep fusion of AI and business processes.
  • AI Enablement for Enterprise Strategy & Operations: Collaborate with management and operational teams to identify AI application scenarios in revenue growth, conversion optimization, customer operations, cost control, and risk management. Build a Decision Copilot for leadership to support data-driven decision-making. Connect data platforms and AI systems to enable the flow: Data → Insights → Decisions → Execution (via Agent automation). Establish a quantitative evaluation system linking AI outcomes to business KPIs such as revenue, conversion rates, and efficiency gains.
  • RAG & Enterprise Knowledge System: Build an enterprise-grade Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) system integrating knowledge bases, business data, and real-time information. Support permission-aware retrieval, citation tracing, result explanation, and temporal sensitivity controls. Optimize embeddings, indexing strategies, reranking, and caching mechanisms to improve accuracy and performance.
  • Security, Governance & Production Systems: Design security and governance mechanisms for AI systems, including execution tiering (read-only / low-risk / high-risk operations). Build a comprehensive audit and compliance framework to make AI behavior traceable and explainable. Establish a production-grade evaluation system (offline + online), A/B testing, and continuous optimization processes.
  • Observability & Platform Engineering: Build AI system observability capabilities including logging, tracing, and metrics. Monitor model calls, tool execution paths, latency, and costs. Drive platform engineering efforts to standardize and scale AI capabilities across the organization.
  • Technical Leadership: As a Staff Engineer, lead system architecture design and key technical decisions. Drive AI capabilities from PoC to organization-wide scaled deployment. Guide engineering teams on best practices in Agent development, automation, and AI applications. Bridge technology and business to advance the AI strategy.

Basic Qualifications:

  • Education: Bachelor’s degree or above in Computer Science or a related field.
  • Experience: 7+ years of software engineering experience, including 2–3 years of experience with AI/LLM/Agent systems.
  • Backend Engineering: Strong backend engineering skills with proficiency in Python (core), or Java / Node.js.
  • Agent Development: Hands-on experience building AI Agent / automated execution systems (tool calling, multi-step tasks, workflows).
  • Retrieval & Search: Familiarity with RAG, vector databases, retrieval, and reranking mechanisms.
  • Systems Integration: Experience with API design, system integration, and distributed architecture.
  • Cloud Native: Cloud-native experience with AWS/GCP, Docker, and Kubernetes.
  • Security: Familiarity with OAuth2/OIDC, access control, and security-by-design principles.
  • Business Acumen: Ability to translate business problems into AI solutions.
  • Collaboration: Strong cross-functional communication and influence skills.

Preferred Qualifications:

  1. OpenClaw Experience: Experience with OpenClaw or similar Agent / automated execution frameworks.
  2. Enterprise AI Platform: Experience building enterprise-grade AI platforms or internal tooling platforms.
  3. Business Systems: Experience with CRM, ERP, RevOps, or commercial systems.
  4. AI + Data Platform: Experience combining AI with data platforms or BI systems.
  5. Multi-Agent Orchestration: Familiarity with multi-Agent collaboration and complex workflow orchestration.
  6. Business Impact: Proven track record of using AI to drive measurable improvements in business KPIs.
  7. Enterprise AI Transformation: Experience leading enterprise AI transformation or scaling AI deployments.
  8. IT / Infrastructure Automation: Experience with IT / infrastructure automation (API / SSH / network devices).

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
