🚀 About AdsGency AI


We’re AdsGency AI — an AI-native startup building the multi-agent automation layer for digital advertising.


Our platform uses LLM-driven agents to autonomously launch, scale, and optimize ad campaigns across Google, Meta, TikTok, and beyond — removing humans from the loop and redefining performance marketing.


Our mission:

Build the operating system where AI runs advertising better than humans ever could.


We’re backed by top-tier investors, moving extremely fast, and scaling globally. This is your chance to join early — and shape the architecture, culture, and engineering velocity of a company transforming the $800B ad industry.




🧠 The Role – Engineering Manager (AI Systems)


As an Engineering Manager, you will lead and grow the technical team responsible for AdsGency’s multi-agent AI infrastructure, real-time pipelines, and mission-critical systems.


You’ll manage a high-energy team of full-stack, backend, and AI engineers — while remaining technical enough to influence architecture, review system designs, and ensure we ship fast without breaking.


You won’t be a “people-only” manager.


You will be:


  • an architect who understands distributed systems
  • a builder who unblocks engineers with clarity
  • a coach who grows a high-performance team
  • a driver who ensures engineering velocity matches company ambition


Your leadership will determine how AdsGency AI scales from startup → global ad automation platform.




🔧 What You’ll Lead



1. Multi-Agent Infrastructure


  • Drive design of our LLM agent orchestration system (communication, memory, autonomy, decision trees).
  • Ensure reliability, observability, and scalability of cross-agent workflows.



2. Core Backend & APIs


  • Lead development of microservices powering campaigns, analytics, budgets, and user operations.
  • Own standards for reliability, integrations, and code quality across services.



3. Real-Time Data & Optimization Pipelines


  • Manage teams building real-time performance event pipelines (Kafka / PostHog / ClickHouse / Redis).
  • Oversee systems that support budget optimization, agent feedback loops, and anomaly detection.



4. Platform Features & Frontend


  • Coordinate with full-stack engineers to deliver polished Next.js dashboards, operator tools, and customer-facing interfaces.



5. AI & Ad Integrations


  • Guide integration teams working with Google, Meta, TikTok, and emerging ad APIs.
  • Ensure our multi-agent workflows deliver measurable ROI and scale globally.



6. Technical Leadership


  • Run architecture reviews and own technical roadmaps.
  • Establish engineering processes that prioritize speed, ownership, and craftsmanship.
  • Mentor, hire, and level-up engineers during hypergrowth.
