Software Engineer - AI Teammates Platform

About the Role

AI Teammates are Asana’s flagship AI innovation - autonomous agents embedded directly into enterprise workflows that reason, act, and proactively drive work forward. The AI Teammates Platform (AITP) team owns the execution engine and platform layer that makes these AI Teammates effective, reliable, and scalable.

We build the core systems behind agentic execution: model evaluation and rollouts, proactive detection of blocked work, execution quality infrastructure, tool orchestration, and the platform APIs that power AI across all of Asana engineering. Rather than building a monolithic feature, we build a composable foundation. If a Teammate reasons, acts, or autonomously improves - that’s us.

This role is based in our San Francisco office with an office-centric hybrid schedule. The standard in-office days are Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday. Most Asanas have the option to work from home on Wednesdays. Working from home on Fridays depends on the type of work you do and the teams with which you partner.
