What the job involves
- Our Assist Team is building autonomous AI agents that handle the most challenging aspects of customer support and letting human agents focus on high-value interactions
- Operating as an team led by CTO John Wang, we're focused on eliminating low-leverage support work and helping agents send faster, more accurate replies
- Build foundational new features: Develop product features from the ground up, such as implementing translation capabilities powered by LLMs and intelligent categorization of incoming tickets
- You’ll help design and build a workflow builder that distills the complexity of workflows into a simple, intuitive interface, making powerful tools accessible and easy to use for support agents
- Improve LLM model results: Enhance our retrieval augmented generation engine using techniques like vector search, document re-ranking, and hypothetical document embeddings
- You’ll help us leverage implicit knowledge bases like past tickets and macros to improve model performance
- Develop LLM Infrastructure: Architect the abstractions that enable the integration of various types of LLMs tailored for different applications
- You’ll design and implement evaluation and logging systems to monitor performance and build interfaces that expand our platform's capabilities
- Engage with customers: Collaborate with our customers (both support agents and managers) to understand their needs, how they interact with our product, and how we can improve their lives
- Wear many hats: Be versatile in roles — coding, user research, planning, brainstorming, interviewing, and cross-team collaboration
- Shape the team culture: Encourage a startup mentality that’s all about staying positive, aiming for top-notch product quality, and taking initiative
- Examples of what you might work on:
- Scaling LLMs with Golang
- Enhancing RAG results with Reciprocal Rank Fusion and Hybrid Search
- Pioneering new LLM evaluation techniques
Our take
Assembled's platform helps companies manage and scale their customer support services. Customer service management is just one of the many areas that are being overhauled by digital transformation. Assembled helps streamline cumbersome and error-prone customer support processes - such as planning support rosters, forecasting demand, and evaluating team performance.
Assembled already counts companies like Zoom, GoFundMe and Stripe on its customer books, and finds huge opportunity in key industries like eCommerce and food deliveries that have been seeing massive digital overhauls. Having received significant investment, the company seems set on continued growth, with funds cited to support product development as well as help launch its CX Scholars initiative, that will commit a percentage of revenue to continuing education for support workers.

Company values
- Act like a support agent - It's a mentality and an operating principle. It means meeting every challenge with rigor, empathy, and efficiency. Doing it because you care. Listening first, solutioning next.
- Get on the plane - We are biased towards action, and don’t wait to pitch in, help out, or to go the extra mile, every time. Sometimes, you just need to get on the plane — literally and figuratively.
- Make feedback a gift - The beauty of Assembled is rooted in the interplay of two traits — our diversity of perspectives and backgrounds and our willingness to give and receive feedback.
