# Jordan Kail

> Staff Software Engineer at Together AI. With over 13 years of experience in AI, analytics and machine learning, I now lead the agents platform and data engineering at Together AI, building the agent harness, internal agents factory and proprietary IP behind them. Before that I built AI classifiers at Meta and model-governance frameworks at Prove, and turned data into impact for startups and Fortune 50 companies alike.
