Software Contract information

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a software contract manager, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Software Contract Manager, you need expertise in contract law, software licensing, negotiation, and compliance, usually grounded in a legal or business degree. Familiarity with contract management systems (CMS), e-signature tools, and legal research databases is typically required. Strong attention to detail, communication, and problem-solving skills help build effective relationships and mitigate risk. These competencies ensure contracts are structured to protect company interests, minimize legal exposure, and maximize value from software agreements.

What are typical challenges faced by professionals working in software contract roles, and how can they effectively manage these challenges?

Professionals in software contract roles often face challenges such as managing multiple client expectations, ensuring clear communication of project requirements, and adapting quickly to new codebases or technologies. Time management is crucial, as contract work may involve juggling several projects with overlapping deadlines. Building strong client relationships and setting clear deliverables from the outset can help mitigate misunderstandings and scope creep. Staying organized and maintaining up-to-date documentation are also key practices for success in this dynamic and fast-paced work environment.

What is a software contract?

Software contracts are legally binding agreements that define the terms and conditions under which software is developed, licensed, or used. These contracts typically outline the rights and responsibilities of both parties, including payment terms, deliverables, intellectual property ownership, support, maintenance, and confidentiality clauses. They help protect both software providers and clients by ensuring clarity and minimizing disputes. Common types include software development agreements, licensing agreements, and maintenance contracts.

Job description

About the Role:

Syndi is Syndio's AI platform - one shared agent experience (in-product chat, Slack, Teams) serving our product lines, built on syndi-api: an agent runtime owning orchestration, tool calling, memory, RAG, evals, and observability, live in production today. The platform is young (v1 shipped this quarter), moving fast, and designed around a clear operating model: product teams contribute domain content through APIs, evals, and knowledge - the platform owns the experience.

We're hiring a staff-level engineer to take ownership of major runtime surfaces and grow into a technical owner of the platform. This is a high-autonomy role on a small team (3-4 engineers): you'll design, ship, and operate systems end-to-end, and you'll work directly with product-team owners through the platform's contribution seams.

What You'll Work On
  • Core runtime surfaces of syndi-api: the agent loop, tool execution and registry, memory, context management (Python, Postgres, Claude on Vertex, GCP).
  • The eval system - offline gates and online detector/judge evals written onto production traces - and its growth as product teams adopt it.
  • Production operation: observability (Datadog LLM Obs), incident response, the reliability of an agent surface real customers use.
  • The platform's contribution seams: reviewing product teams' tool wrappers and evals, evolving the GET /tools registry and drift-detection contract.
  • Clarifying, designing, and implementing compliance and legal requirements for Syndi.
What We're Looking For
  • 5+ years building production backend systems; deep comfort with Python, relational stores, and cloud infra (we're on GCP/Kubernetes).
  • You've built LLM-powered systems in production - an agent loop, tool-calling integration, RAG, or eval infrastructure - and have opinions from the scar tissue.
  • You design for operability: legal compliance, tracing, evals, and kill switches are part of the feature, not afterthoughts.
  • You can own a technical domain with light supervision: propose direction in writing with clear API specs, take review, ship, and carry the pager for what you shipped.
  • Strong written communication - our operating model runs on design docs and PR review across team boundaries.
  • Nice to have: experience being the platform side of a platform/product relationship; SSE/streaming systems; compliance-adjacent engineering (data minimization, auditability); prior Staff scope.
Why you'll love it here:
  • Competitive Compensation. For this role our salary is targeted at $205-225k USD or $180-200k CAD per year. Final offer amounts are determined by factors such as experience and expertise. 
  •   Syndio Equity. So you can share in Syndio's success
  •   Flexible Vacation Policy. We encourage our team to recharge when they need to (up to 20 days PTO in Canada) plus paid sick & safe time, compassion leave, and voting leave. 
  •   Medical, Dental, Vision. Syndio pays 90% of employee premiums, and 50% for dependents.
  •   Life Insurance & Disability. Syndio covers the full premium.
  • Remote-first in US + Alberta; in Calgary, non-mandatory office available #LI-Remote 
Role Progession
  • First 30 days: Focus on onboarding, mastering our core agent runtime surfaces, and shipping a small-scale contribution to understand the platform's contribution seams.
  • First 60 days: Independently manage core runtime surfaces, troubleshoot complex issues, and start co-owning a consumer team's integration from API design to eval sign-off.
  • First 90 days: Concretely ship a major runtime capability end-to-end (e.g., multimodal input or a new channel surface), take on-call for the platform, and co-own a consumer team's integration from API design to eval sign-off.
