Tech Firm Offers ₹9 Lakh Monthly to Hire AI Agent, Says It Won’t Replace Humans A technology company has sparked curiosity by posting a job opening specifically for an AI agent, offering a monthly salary of ₹9 lakh. The role, titled "Agentic AI Developer Advocate," is designed to manage technical content and growth experiments, with the AI agent expected to operate with minimal or no human intervention. While the position requires a human operator, the primary responsibilities are tailored for an autonomous system. RevenueCat, a mobile SDK and API provider for managing in-app subscriptions, shared the job posting on social media, stating it was a paid contract role for an AI agent. The company emphasized that the AI would create content, run growth experiments, and provide product feedback. However, all content would undergo human review before publication, ensuring it adheres to the same editorial standards applied to human team members. The company clarified that the AI agent would not replace human employees. Instead, it reiterated that it was actively hiring developers and other roles, with the new position existing alongside these roles rather than replacing them. Each AI agent would have a designated human operator, who would undergo standard background checks and be held accountable for the agent’s work, similar to any other contractor. RevenueCat further stated that the AI agent would have limited access to its systems, restricted to public documentation, APIs, and specific tools. It would not have access to customer data or internal systems. The company highlighted that AI agents were already being used to build and grow apps with RevenueCat, aligning with its existing practice of hiring advocates from the communities it serves. The job posting has generated mixed reactions online.#ai_agent #revenuecat #agentic_ai_developer_advocate #human_operator #ai_content_creation
RevenueCat Seeks AI Agent for High-Paying Role Amid AI-Driven Workforce Shift A U.S.-based SaaS company, RevenueCat, has taken an unconventional step by announcing plans to hire an AI agent directly, offering a salary of nearly Rs 55 lakh for the role. The move comes as AI tools like ChatGPT and Claude increasingly disrupt traditional job markets, raising concerns about automation’s impact on human employment. RevenueCat’s decision highlights a growing trend of companies adapting to an era where AI is not only reshaping workflows but also challenging the relevance of legacy software businesses. The company’s new position, titled “Agentic AI Developer Advocate,” is designed to leverage AI’s capabilities in content creation, growth experimentation, and product feedback. The role, which spans six months, includes a monthly stipend of $10,000 (approximately Rs 9.2 lakh) and additional resources such as compute budget, API access, and direct collaboration with engineering and product teams. While the AI agent will handle tasks like generating technical documentation and running marketing experiments, the role still requires human oversight. The individual responsible for designing the AI agent must undergo a live interview with a company founder to secure the position. RevenueCat emphasizes that hiring an AI agent does not replace human workers. The company explicitly states it is “actively hiring humans” for roles such as iOS and Android Developer Advocates, ensuring the AI initiative complements rather than competes with existing teams. This approach reflects a broader strategy to integrate AI into operations without displacing human expertise. The decision aligns with RevenueCat’s recent growth, including a $50 million Series-C funding round in May 2025.#ai_agent #chatgpt #revenuecat #claude #series_c
