We’re building AI Teammates: agents that work like actual users in Asana and integrated apps. They triage bugs, respond to requests, draft project briefs, conduct research, and handle complex knowledge work across your team's workflows. Unlike chatbots, Teammates are shared team resources that build memory and context across all executions. They get smarter as you and your colleagues work with them. Currently in beta with Fortune 500 customers, AI Teammates represents Asana's shift from tracking work to getting work done.About Asana AIAsana AI is the company's number one priority. We're building the future of human/AI collaboration — going beyond chatbots to integrate AI into everyday workflows for some of the biggest companies on the planet. Asana's AI Teammates deliver a secure, multi-player, enterprise-grade agentic experience. They're transforming Asana from a place where work is tracked to a place where work gets done. Our AI teams move quickly, with a track record of successful launches, and we're just getting started.Agent OrchestrationThe team building the connective tissue between Asana's AI agents and the broader enterprise ecosystem. We're tackling hard problems: How do you build an agent skills system that lets Teammates acquire and use new capabilities dynamically? How do you create deep integrations across tools like Slack, Teams, and other enterprise platforms so agents can operate wherever work happens? How do you deliver vertical use cases that make AI Teammates extraordinarily useful for specific, high-value enterprise workflows — all while meeting security and compliance requirements at scale?Role OverviewThis is a rare opportunity to be at the forefront of Agentic AI. You'll work directly with model partners, lead the core team shaping how enterprises collaborate with AI agents across their entire tool ecosystem, and drive the technical direction for one of the most impactful applied AI challenges in the industry. You'll also flex into org-level engineering leadership across the broader Asana AI group, contributing beyond your direct team.What You'll AchieveLead and grow the Agent Orchestration team (~6 senior engineers, ICs up to L6),
