What's the opportunity?

Fin is the #1 AI agent for customer service. It resolves over 1M customer conversations every week, and we're just getting started. We're inventing paradigms that didn't exist six months ago and discovering entirely new problem spaces every time we push the technology further.

This role sits within the Service Agent pillar: 12 teams and growing, building every capability that makes Fin work. You'll own 1-2 of the most strategically significant work streams in the pillar. These aren't static teams with stable roadmaps. We re-evaluate priorities at the pillar level constantly, spinning up and down work streams and dynamic teams to solve whatever matters most right now. The teams you lead six months in may look nothing like the ones you start with. You need to be okay with that.

The competitive landscape is intense. Fast-moving AI-native startups are shipping aggressively and going after the same deals we are. We need someone who thrives under that pressure and can maintain high standards while moving at startup speed.

What will you do?

You'll own strategically significant work streams end-to-end. You're accountable for outcomes, not just delivery cadence or team health, but whether the work actually moved the needle.

This is not a role for facilitators. You will be on the front line: deeply understanding the product, the problem, and the context. Sometimes that means writing code yourself. Sometimes it means doing the analysis, or driving cross-functional collaboration, or force-multiplying someone on your team who's stuck. There is a straight line between your work and the impact being delivered. You lead from the front.

We regularly spin up new work streams around emerging priorities. You'll bring together engineers who've never worked as a team, set high expectations, build momentum under aggressive timelines, and drive execution. Then the shape of your teams may change again. That's the job.

You'll develop senior engineers into leaders. We don't need someone who mentors juniors on the basics. We need someone who accelerates staff and senior engineers, who gives direct, actionable feedback that changes outcomes, and who grows the leadership capacity of the people around them.

You'll partner with the Engineering Director on pillar-level strategy. Where should we invest more? Where are we falling behind? What should we defund? You bring these opinions, backed by what you're seeing on the ground.

And you'll do all of this in an AI-first engineering culture. Every engineer has Claude Code with unlimited tokens and a sophisticated ecosystem of MCP servers, skills, and shared context. You'll push the boundaries of what's possible with AI-assisted development, both personally and through how you set up your teams.

What are we looking for?

The most important thing: you need to be an exceptional people leader AND personally action-oriented. Not one or the other. We don't want managers who are great with people but distant from the product. And we don't want hands-on operators who neglect the leadership craft. You build high-performing teams AND get personally stuck in to drive outcomes when it matters.

Beyond that:

Product-minded, not process-minded. You understand what you're building and why. You have opinions about the product, not just how the team operates. You can challenge a product direction, spot a gap in the strategy, and make calls about what work matters most.

Operated at real scale with startup energy. You've likely spent time at companies operating at significant scale. You've seen what large distributed systems look like in production and what it takes to ship reliably in that environment. But you also have urgency, resourcefulness, and a bias toward action over discussion.

AI fluency. You're actively experimenting with AI-assisted development, forming opinions about how it changes the way teams build software, and pushing your teams to adopt new ways of working. This is table stakes for this role.

Technically credible. You don't need to be the deepest engineer in the room, but you can hold your own. You can review an architecture proposal and ask the right questions. You can spot when a team is over-engineering or under-investing. Engineers respect your technical judgment.

Communication. You can explain to leadership why a team needs more investment, align multiple stakeholders around a complex project, have a difficult performance conversation, and unblock an engineer on a gnarly problem, all in the same day.

Extreme autonomy. You partner with the Engineering Director on where the pillar needs to go next. You identify problems, form convictions, and act on them. If you're the kind of manager who waits for direction, this isn't the right role.

Critical thinking about the business. You understand what Intercom is optimising for and translate that into team-level decisions. Which work streams need investment? Where are we falling behind? What should we stop doing to go harder somewhere else?

Why Intercom, why now?

Fin is #1, and the race is heating up. We built the leading AI agent for customer service, but fast-moving AI-native startups are coming for this space. The engineering decisions made in the next 12 months will determine who wins.

Intercom has been building for 15 years: deep product, massive customer base, strong revenue. But unlike most legacy SaaS companies, we made a successful pivot to AI. While most of SaaS trends down, Intercom trends up. We recently raised $250M to go even further even faster.

Every employee gets Claude Code with unlimited Opus 4.6 tokens and 1M context. We're investing heavily in platform capabilities (MCP servers, skills, shared tooling) that make AI-assisted development genuinely transformative. You'll be at the sharp edge of figuring out what this means for how teams work.

Big enough to have real resources, customers, and revenue. Small enough that you have genuine agency. Bold enough to make decisions that most companies of this size wouldn't. You come to Intercom if you want the impact of a startup with the backing of a company that's been winning for 15 years.

Speed is something we fight for every day at Intercom, and we believe Berlin is built for people who share that instinct. We are drawn to Berlin by its rare blend of deep technical talent and rich creative culture – all within a vibrant, globally connected city that’s close to our R&D hubs in Dublin and London. It’s a place where the best of the best technical talent thrive, and where people from around the world are eager to relocate and build ambitious products.

Our ambition is to hire 100 people in Berlin over the year ahead across engineering, AI, data science, product, and design. We believe this is the most exciting time to join, be the founding R&D talent in the region and make a lasting impact as we build the world's number one customer agent!

What's the opportunity? 

At Intercom, you will be a product engineer - someone who solves real customer problems through a smart and efficient application of your technical knowledge and your tools. You’ll be part of one of our multidisciplinary product teams, where you will build both back-end and front-end systems, and work closely with designers, product managers, researchers, and data analysts.

We’re facing many exciting scaling challenges and we’re building a robust platform where your expertise can be applied to areas such as building a beautiful messenger composer, rule matching, deliverability, security, app availability and machine learning, to name a few. 

What will I be doing? 

As an experienced engineer you will:

• Develop technical plans and contribute to our technical architecture as we scale our products to serve tens of millions of people every day.
• Write Ruby code, which knits together a lot of AWS, infrastructure, platform and SaaS technologies that form the core of Intercom’s backend infrastructure
• Ship a change to production on your first day and a feature in your first week. That “day one” change is automatically deployed to production along with 100 other deployments (on average) each weekday.
• Build using the best tools in the industry. We invest heavily in AI-powered developer tools that remove friction and help you focus on solving meaningful problems.
• Grow your team’s capacity by mentoring other engineers and interviewing candidates. This is a chance to be an integral part of building and growing a team.

What skills do I need? 

• 4+ years of industry experience in a software engineering role, preferably building a SaaS product. You can demonstrate significant impact that your work has had on the product and/or the team.
• Deep knowledge of a high-level programming language (for example, Ruby, Python, Javascript etc.) but it doesn’t need to be a language that we use here! Great people are effective and learn what we use quickly (or introduce us to better ways of working)
• Experience collaborating directly with product teams and designers, and a proven track record of delivering value to customers or users. Engineers at Intercom are pragmatists who work closely with others on cross-disciplinary teams
• Experience with Distributed systems

What happens when I apply? 

First, apply so we can review your CV. As the next step, we will send you our take-home test to work on in your own time. You can find more details on the questions and how we evaluate answers here. The following step will be a phone interview with one of our engineers which will focus on technical and culture contribution questions (this step is sometimes broken down into 2 interviews). The final step is a virtual onsite interview.

What's the opportunity?

Fin is the #1 AI agent for customer service. It resolves over 1M customer conversations every week, and we're just getting started. We're inventing paradigms that didn't exist six months ago and discovering entirely new problem spaces every time we push the technology further.

This role sits within the Service Agent pillar: 12 teams and growing, building every capability that makes Fin work. You'll own 1-2 of the most strategically significant work streams in the pillar. These aren't static teams with stable roadmaps. We re-evaluate priorities at the pillar level constantly, spinning up and down work streams and dynamic teams to solve whatever matters most right now. The teams you lead six months in may look nothing like the ones you start with. You need to be okay with that.

The competitive landscape is intense. Fast-moving AI-native startups are shipping aggressively and going after the same deals we are. We need someone who thrives under that pressure and can maintain high standards while moving at startup speed.

What will you do?

You'll own strategically significant work streams end-to-end. You're accountable for outcomes, not just delivery cadence or team health, but whether the work actually moved the needle.

This is not a role for facilitators. You will be on the front line: deeply understanding the product, the problem, and the context. Sometimes that means writing code yourself. Sometimes it means doing the analysis, or driving cross-functional collaboration, or force-multiplying someone on your team who's stuck. There is a straight line between your work and the impact being delivered. You lead from the front.

We regularly spin up new work streams around emerging priorities. You'll bring together engineers who've never worked as a team, set high expectations, build momentum under aggressive timelines, and drive execution. Then the shape of your teams may change again. That's the job.

You'll develop senior engineers into leaders. We don't need someone who mentors juniors on the basics. We need someone who accelerates staff and senior engineers, who gives direct, actionable feedback that changes outcomes, and who grows the leadership capacity of the people around them.

You'll partner with the Engineering Director on pillar-level strategy. Where should we invest more? Where are we falling behind? What should we defund? You bring these opinions, backed by what you're seeing on the ground.

And you'll do all of this in an AI-first engineering culture. Every engineer has Claude Code with unlimited tokens and a sophisticated ecosystem of MCP servers, skills, and shared context. You'll push the boundaries of what's possible with AI-assisted development, both personally and through how you set up your teams.

What are we looking for?

The most important thing: you need to be an exceptional people leader AND personally action-oriented. Not one or the other. We don't want managers who are great with people but distant from the product. And we don't want hands-on operators who neglect the leadership craft. You build high-performing teams AND get personally stuck in to drive outcomes when it matters.

Beyond that:

Product-minded, not process-minded. You understand what you're building and why. You have opinions about the product, not just how the team operates. You can challenge a product direction, spot a gap in the strategy, and make calls about what work matters most.

Operated at real scale with startup energy. You've likely spent time at companies operating at significant scale. You've seen what large distributed systems look like in production and what it takes to ship reliably in that environment. But you also have urgency, resourcefulness, and a bias toward action over discussion.

AI fluency. You're actively experimenting with AI-assisted development, forming opinions about how it changes the way teams build software, and pushing your teams to adopt new ways of working. This is table stakes for this role.

Technically credible. You don't need to be the deepest engineer in the room, but you can hold your own. You can review an architecture proposal and ask the right questions. You can spot when a team is over-engineering or under-investing. Engineers respect your technical judgment.

Communication. You can explain to leadership why a team needs more investment, align multiple stakeholders around a complex project, have a difficult performance conversation, and unblock an engineer on a gnarly problem, all in the same day.

Extreme autonomy. You partner with the Engineering Director on where the pillar needs to go next. You identify problems, form convictions, and act on them. If you're the kind of manager who waits for direction, this isn't the right role.

Critical thinking about the business. You understand what Intercom is optimising for and translate that into team-level decisions. Which work streams need investment? Where are we falling behind? What should we stop doing to go harder somewhere else?

Why Intercom, why now?

Fin is #1, and the race is heating up. We built the leading AI agent for customer service, but fast-moving AI-native startups are coming for this space. The engineering decisions made in the next 12 months will determine who wins.

Intercom has been building for 15 years: deep product, massive customer base, strong revenue. But unlike most legacy SaaS companies, we made a successful pivot to AI. While most of SaaS trends down, Intercom trends up. We recently raised $250M to go even further even faster.

Every employee gets Claude Code with unlimited Opus 4.6 tokens and 1M context. We're investing heavily in platform capabilities (MCP servers, skills, shared tooling) that make AI-assisted development genuinely transformative. You'll be at the sharp edge of figuring out what this means for how teams work.

Big enough to have real resources, customers, and revenue. Small enough that you have genuine agency. Bold enough to make decisions that most companies of this size wouldn't. You come to Intercom if you want the impact of a startup with the backing of a company that's been winning for 15 years.

What’s the opportunity?

Intercom is the AI Customer Agent company. Our AI agent, Fin, is transforming customer experience for businesses, and we believe that the same AI transformation should power our R&D organization.

At Intercom, shipping is our heartbeat. We are hiring a Senior Engineer for Builder Tools: the AI Developer Experience Enablement team. This is the team that makes shipping delightful, fast, and low-toil for hundreds of engineers and agents.

Your mission is to help turn Intercom’s entire R&D organization into an AI-first engineering machine. We’ve made incredible progress, 90%+ of our code is already written by Claude, but that volume creates entirely new scaling and orchestration challenges. You will work across our codebases, developer environments, and internal tooling to make AI a trustworthy, everyday accelerant.

You will ship tangible solutions every day that work, prove their value, and scale. You’ll focus on developer enablement: operationalizing AI for real-world engineering effectiveness and eliminating drag so all of R&D can do their best work.

Learn how we ship 250 versions of Intercom per day, discover our engineering culture at intercom.engineering, and explore our engineering values.

What you’ll do?

• Build AI-driven automation agents that remove routine work with human-in-the-loop review, prioritize impact, prototype fast, and iterate until the automation transforms engineering.
• Make AI-assisted workflows the default in our developer environments: ship integrations, preconfigured workspaces, and developer agents that engineers want to use.
• Improve our codebases for AI: refactor, document, and introduce standards so agents and code suggestions are more accurate and reliable. Partner with repo owners to trial changes and measure outcomes.
• Instrument and measure everything: define success metrics, track adoption and impact, and use telemetry to guide improvements.
• Balance practicality and safety: design systems that consider cost, observability, privacy, and guardrails so AI features are dependable and trustworthy.
• Evangelise and enable adoption: work with engineering leads and internal champions, create playbooks and demos, and help teams get real benefit from the tooling.
• Ship production-grade services: own design, implementation, tests, and operational runbooks and agent skills.

What skills do I need?

We don’t expect perfection. If you have most of this and you’re excited, we want to hear from you. We can shape the position for the right person.

• Multiple years building and supporting high-performing systems, ideally in a SaaS, platform, or internal tooling context. You've introduced new tools or workflows that actually got adopted and made a difference.
• Practical AI toolchain experience: hands-on with LLMs, agents or code-assistants, model APIs, or prompt engineering. Demonstrated strong curiosity and a track record of learning these quickly.
• Deep knowledge of at least one major programming language (Ruby, Python, JavaScript, etc.). Experience restructuring, documenting, and modernizing large codebases is a massive plus.
• Developer experience obsession: you think in terms of developer time saved, reliable defaults, and usable workflows. You’ve shipped CI/CD, dev environment automation, code-quality tools, or similar.
• You align stakeholders, share best practices, make engineering trade-offs visible, and listen to your internal customers before acting.
• Bias to action and pragmatism: you iterate fast, unblock yourself and others, and stop or pivot when things do not deliver value.

Why join us?

You’ll be at the heart of Intercom’s shift to AI-first engineering. We’re giving engineers superpowers, shipping solutions that get real traction, and building a foundation for world-class developer productivity. You’ll work alongside kind, driven colleagues and have the autonomy to make a company-wide impact.
