Position: Full Stack AI Engineer
Company: Agentic Studios, Inc
Location: Albuquerque, New Mexico
About Us: Imagine a world where the next generation of entrepreneurs isn't born in Silicon Valley, but in communities where creativity thrives, but opportunity has yet to flourish. We aim to bring this vision to life by unlocking the untapped inventive potential of heartland communities, quadrupling the number of entrepreneurs in the U.S. By nurturing Entrepreneurs-in-Development (EiDs) through early exposure to innovation and hands-on business creation focused on health, wellness, and learning, we're unleashing a wave of innovation that will fuel unprecedented growth. Advances in AI now make high-growth venture creation more accessible than ever, and our micro startup studio model is the key to realizing this vision. The founding team brings together a unique blend of proven expertise, spanning serial entrepreneurship, startup investing, venture studios, public education, and economic development within heartland communities.
Position Overview: We are seeking a versatile, full-time AI engineer who combines hacker speed with an innovator's creativity. You'll work on the full stack-front-end, back-end, and everything in between-rapidly building and iterating prototypes into production-ready products, and supporting spin-outs from Agentic Studios. Most of our products leverage AI, so experience with AI in its many forms is a big plus.
We are guided by a set of core values that shape all aspects of our work. We believe in a deep sense of interconnectedness, mastering our minds to overcome challenges, demonstrating courage with empathy, and hustling with discipline and joy. These values aren't just abstract ideas-they define how we interact, make decisions, and support each other. As a member of our founding team, you will embody these principles, helping to create a culture where bold ideas are embraced, challenges are met with resilience, and excellence is pursued with integrity. Your success and ours, will be measured by how well we live these values every day.
