About Apollo

Apollo is the AI-powered go-to-market platform that helps revenue teams find, engage, and convert their best customers. We combine a database of more than 210 million contacts and 35 million companies with an agentic end-to-end GTM platform, and more than 500,000 companies rely on us to run their go-to-market motion. We are profitable, growing fast, and rebuilding the product around AI and agents.

About Builder Studio

Builder Studio is Apollo's new product for building custom GTM software in plain English. A RevOps lead, GTM engineer, or founder describes the tool they need, and Builder Studio plans it, generates real code, and turns it into a working app they can preview, refine through conversation, publish, and share with their team.

Every app is made of four building blocks: Pages for the interface, Databases for structured records, Workflows for visible backend logic and scheduled jobs, and Agents that reason over Apollo context and take action. What makes it different from a generic app builder is that Apollo's data, enrichment, sequences, deliverability, and CRM sync are native building blocks, not bolted-on third-party integrations.

It is one of Apollo's flagship AI bets. The product is in the hands of early design partners now and is heading toward broad launch, which means the next year is about taking a working product and making it reliable, secure, and loved at scale.

Your role and mission

You will own major slices of Builder Studio end to end, across the builder experience customers see and the systems that make generated apps actually run. You will work on problems most engineers have never touched: an agent that writes and edits software on a customer's behalf, a runtime that safely executes that code with the user's own Apollo permissions, and an interface that makes all of it understandable to someone who has never read a line of code.

What you will do

Build the core Studio experience: the chat-driven build loop, live preview, canvas, and the publish and share flow, so a non-technical user can go from an idea to a working tool in minutes

Shape how the agent turns a natural-language goal into a plan, a set of pages, databases, and workflows, and then safely applies follow-up edits without breaking what already works

Design the runtime and workflow layer for generated apps, including triggers, scheduled jobs, retries, logging, and the line between deterministic steps and agentic steps

Own delegated identity, permissions, secrets, and isolation so generated apps act with exactly the access the user has, and nothing more

Expand "connect once, use anywhere" integrations across Apollo data (contacts, companies, lists) and external systems like Google Sheets, Google Drive, CRMs, and MCP-based connectors

Make the relationships between pages, data, workflows, and agents legible in the UI, so customers trust what their app is doing

Work directly with design partners and customers, turn their feedback into shipped improvements quickly, and help define what the product becomes

Raise the quality bar on a fast-moving 0 to 1 team: set patterns, write the tests and evals that matter, and own reliability, performance, and cost of what you ship

How we work: AI-native by default

You treat AI-assisted development as a core part of how you work. You use agents to move faster on design, investigation, and implementation, with clear judgment about where to review closely, and you look for ways AI raises the leverage of the whole team. On Builder Studio this is doubly true: you are building an AI that writes software, so your own instincts for where AI-generated code succeeds and fails directly shape the product.

What we are looking for

5+ years building and shipping production software, with real depth on both the frontend and backend of the same product

Strong TypeScript and React skills, including complex, stateful UIs such as editors, canvases, builders, or real-time collaborative surfaces

Solid backend and API design experience, ideally including event-driven or workflow systems where retries, idempotency, and observability matter
