About Tavily
Tavily is pioneering the search engine designed specifically for AI agents, envisioning a future where AI leads the way in the workplace. Our innovative Search API empowers AI agents with real-time access to the web, tailored for Large Language Models (LLMs) and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG).
Backed by prominent investors, we cater to developers and enterprises globally. Our dynamic and ambitious team thrives on rapid shipping, continuous iteration, and a deep commitment to impactful outcomes.
The Role
- Develop systems that facilitate AI's interaction with the live web.
- Design and implement large-scale, intelligent web acquisition pipelines to make sense of an ever-evolving online landscape and convert it into structured, high-quality data.
- Combine technical expertise in browsers, networks, and automation with practical engineering skills.
- Work on adaptive systems that seamlessly navigate modern websites, comprehend changing web interactions and detection systems, and gather valuable information safely, efficiently, and at scale.
- Your contributions will significantly influence Tavily's ability to provide AI agents with accurate, real-time knowledge, bridging the gap between the open web and intelligent reasoning.

What You'll Do
- Create distributed data acquisition systems that capture and structure the live web.
- Explore and analyze browser internals, fingerprinting, and anti-automation systems to develop stealthy, adaptive orchestration layers.
- Prototype and deploy intelligent automation frameworks using Playwright, Puppeteer, and low-level browser control protocols (CDP).
- Conduct hands-on research into network flows, JavaScript protections, and emerging web standards impacting automation.
- Collaborate with AI and infrastructure teams to integrate real-time web data into retrieval pipelines and LLM-powered agents.
- Translate in-depth technical insights into production-ready components, balancing research flexibility with engineering precision.
