Software Engineer, Full-Stack (Agents)

Role Overview AI Agents at Owner is a team with a singular mandate: build agents that let restaurant owners run their business through natural conversation, everywhere they work with Owner. This is one of the most important strategic bets at Owner, and the team is early enough that you will shape the architecture, platform, and products from the ground up. We are looking for engineers who have shipped production agentic AI features and are ready to move fast in ambiguity. Your immediate impact: own an agent surface end-to-end. Your longer-term impact: help define what an agent platform at Owner looks like, and set technical direction for the dozen-plus agent surfaces we will build over the next year. This role is 100% remote and can be based anywhere in the United States or Canada.
