About the role

Responsibilities

  • Build internal developer-facing AI tools and agents that are intelligent, fast, and deeply embedded into the software development lifecycle
  • Create autonomous, resilient agents and evaluation frameworks to power an AI-driven software factory
  • Drive context engineering that keeps AI-legible code, skills, and documentation reliable as the codebase moves fast beneath it
  • Improve the performance, observability, and safety of the model architecture behind our internal AI tools
  • Define and champion the workflows that maximize AI efficiency and accuracy across the organization
  • Design processes for AI to evaluate and improve the state of code quality, test coverage, documentation freshness, and other toil
  • Shape a model of AI-driven work where agents begin to own initiatives, proactively asking engineers for direction when greater judgment is required

Requirements

  • Track record of building and shipping real tools or pipelines—not just models or papers
  • Experience integrating LLMs into development tools in impactful ways
  • Experience building developer tooling, internal platforms, or infrastructure that improves engineering productivity
  • Eye for developer experience: care how tools work and how they feel to use
  • Excitement to have AI as a core collaborator in the development lifecycle
  • Pragmatic mindset about what’s scalable and maintainable
  • Strong opinions, weakly held—you move quickly but bring others along

Nice-to-Haves

  • Experience with AI evaluation frameworks
  • Experience with observability and safety of model architectures
