Engineering Lead

We are looking for a hands-on engineering manager to drive the strategy, execution, and growth of Hex’s state-of-the-art AI context platform.

Our ambition is simple but powerful: Hex should get better every time you use it. With tens of thousands of people relying on Hex daily to do deep analytical work, we are uniquely positioned to learn from usage and continuously improve the intelligence of our system.

The context platform is at the heart of this vision. It is the surface area where users can understand how AI agents interact with their data, identify where quality falls short, and actively improve the context that drives better outcomes. We are building an entirely new development lifecycle for context, one that blends human insight with automated learning and iteration.

The broader AI landscape is evolving quickly, and our team is tackling foundational questions such as how to detect and debug failures in agent reasoning, how to structure and manage business context effectively, how to balance human-in-the-loop systems with autonomous improvement, and how to integrate our context layer with the growing ecosystem of AI-powered tools and workflows.
