Senior Developer, Partnerships Engineering

Designs and builds integration patterns, components, and tooling for high-impact external partnerships, including AI-native technologies. Collaborates with partners and teams to create secure, scalable integrations and reusable infrastructure.

About the job

What we're looking for

  • Strong backend or full-stack engineering experience building APIs, SDKs, platform capabilities, and integrations with AI-native technologies (LLM APIs, agent frameworks, embeddings, or retrieval systems)
  • A track record of delivering complex integrations across organizational boundaries
  • Comfort engaging directly with external technical stakeholders and representing engineering decisions clearly
  • Experience designing secure systems, including authentication, authorization, and policy-driven access models
  • Ability to reason about partner architectures and translate them into pragmatic integration designs
  • Clear technical writing and documentation skills
  • Strong ownership mindset you drive work forward without waiting for perfect clarity
  • Sound judgment on when to build reusable infrastructure versus solving a narrow partner need
  • Experience building or maintaining developer platforms or SDK ecosystems
  • Familiarity with browser integrations or extension architectures
  • Experience migrating systems to new platform primitives or security models
  • Hands-on experience integrating with external AI companies or AI-native technologies such as LLM APIs, agent frameworks, embeddings, or retrieval systems

What you can expect

  • Lead technical design and implementation for complex external integrations spanning SDKs, service accounts, browser surfaces, new platform systems, and AI-native platforms
  • Partner closely with the Strategic Partnerships team to validate feasibility, assess partner architectures, and shape practical integration approaches
  • Build and extend platform components required to support in-flight integrations
  • Identify common integration patterns and abstract them into reusable infrastructure
  • Contribute to the external integrations program, including tracking lifecycle progress from initial discussion through GA
  • Produce clear technical artifacts (design docs, sequence diagrams, integration guides) that support both internal alignment and partner execution
  • Improve self-service documentation and tooling so integrations become increasingly plug-and-play
  • Support partner migrations to new platform capabilities, including new platform systems-based systems with auditing and policy controls
  • Use focused POCs to de-risk new integration patterns, including integrations with external AI platforms and model providers, and inform platform investments
