tl;dr Fresh off a $15M Series A led by Accel (total funding now $20M+), Agave is experiencing hockey-stick growth. We're hiring a sharp, semi-technical generalist to become a deep product expert. You'll work directly with engineers to spec, test, and ship product improvements — rolling up your sleeves in the weeds of complex integrations, edge cases, and real customer data. This role is about execution, not strategy. Learn more about us here (link).

What is Agave?

We're building the financial ops platform for construction, a $12T global industry run by software built 20-40 years ago, much of it on-prem with no APIs and no documentation.

We spent 3 years building the rails to read and write across those systems, and we use them to deploy AI for invoicing, expenses, compliance, billing, and more.

We have 550+ customers and our AI products are the fastest-growing part of the business: a third of new deals now include one, and we signed 8 new channel partnerships in the last month alone. We're backed by Accel and Y Combinator, with investors from Procore, Autodesk, and Plaid. Our three co-founders have worked together for 12+ years, across Graphiq (acquired by Amazon in 2017) and Amazon.

We’ve built something people actually need, in a market most of Silicon Valley ignores — which is exactly why we’re winning. The only thing slowing us down is hiring. Our team is small, scrappy, and high-caliber, and we’re looking for the next wave of builders who will help take Agave from breakout startup to category-defining company.

Why are we hiring this role?

We're growing fast, and our product surface is expanding rapidly. As we scale integrations and add new features, we need someone who can be the bridge between our engineering team and the messy reality of how customers actually use our product.

This person will own the investigative, speccing, QA, and rollout work that keeps our product moving quickly without sacrificing quality. You'll be embedded with engineers and will develop deep expertise in the systems we integrate with.

Responsibilities

Product Investigation & Spec

Become a deep expert on every system we integrate with — ERPs, field tools, accounting platforms

Investigate edge cases and unexpected behaviors in our integrations through structured debugging

Write precise, engineer-ready specs for new features, improvements, and bug fixes

Own the full lifecycle of features from discovery through QA and rollout

QA & Rollout

Design and execute thorough test plans before features ship

Catch edge cases that engineers and customers would miss

Document rollout steps and own post-launch monitoring

Customer & Internal Feedback Loops

Synthesize feedback from customer calls, support tickets, and onboarding observations

Translate implicit and explicit product pain points into actionable specs

Partner with the AM/onboarding team to identify friction points and prioritize fixes

Process & Documentation

Build internal documentation for integration behaviors, known edge cases, and common configurations

Create and maintain testing frameworks that scale as our product grows

Identify and improve gaps in our product development process

What we look for

Must have:

Hands-on: you'll be a full-time builder, not a manager. You must love operating in the messy weeds of nuanced systems, understanding their complexity and simplifying it for our customers. You will focus on product execution and delivery, less on strategy and market research.

Semi-technical: no need to code, but you must have at least internship experience working closely with APIs, databases, SQL, Postman, and similar tools OR excitement to learn. The more, the better.

Meticulous attention to detail: structured thinker who nerds-out on nuances, accounts for edge cases, and tests your work thoroughly before calling it done.

In-person: pumped to work in-person in SF 5 days per week.

Nice to have

Experience building software products alongside software engineers and shipping products on tight timelines.
