AI Systems Architect
About The Position
Bolt Farm Treehouse is a luxury treehouse resort redefining hospitality through AI-first operations, radical ownership, and an obsession with guest experience. We don't just use technology — we build it into everything we do. Our strike team model means you won't sit in a fixed seat. You'll be deployed wherever your skills create the most leverage, then redeployed when the mission changes. The Role AI Systems Architect is the technical brain of the strike team. You design the automation and AI layer across the entire organization — evaluating build-vs-buy, setting technical standards, and architecting agent pipelines that turn manual chaos into self-running systems. You don't just build automations; you decide what gets automated, in what order, and to what standard. This role reports directly to the Founder and operates with high autonomy.
Requirements
- 3+ years building production automation systems or AI pipelines
- Deep proficiency with at least 3 of: Zapier, n8n, Make, Python, Cursor, LangChain, CrewAI, or equivalent frameworks
- Demonstrated architecture portfolio (show us system diagrams, not just task lists)
- Experience evaluating and implementing build-vs-buy decisions
- Track record of quantifying ROI on technical work
- Comfortable with radical transparency, direct feedback, and a founder-led operating model
Nice To Haves
- Hospitality, resort, or guest-experience operations background
- Experience with ClickUp, Airtable, or similar ops platforms at scale
- Prior startup CTO, Head of Automation, or technical co-founder experience
- Contributions to open-source automation or AI agent projects
- Remote-first work experience with async communication norms
Responsibilities
- Design and own the end-to-end automation architecture across operations, guest experience, finance, and content
- Architect AI agent pipelines and multi-step workflows that replace manual processes at scale
- Evaluate build-vs-buy decisions for every tool and system in the stack
- Set technical standards, documentation norms, and quality gates for all automation work
- Build production-grade systems that handle real operational volume (not demos, not prototypes)
- Quantify ROI on every system you ship — hours saved, error rates reduced, revenue unlocked
- Mentor AI Systems Builders and Associates on architecture patterns, debugging, and shipping discipline
- Stay current on AI tooling, agent frameworks, and automation platforms — be the team's scout
Benefits
- Base: $110,000–$135,000
- OTE: $157,000–$193,000
- Performance variable: 30% of OTE, tied to Founder-approved KPIs
- Health stipend: $400/mo
- Profit-pool participation: Yes — tiered by build output, not tenure
