  • Design the system for extensibility (spoke templates, plugin architectures, shared configuration patterns).
  • Partner with teams across Fleetio to identify friction points and build integrations for Product Managers, Designers, Customer Success, etc.
  • Own CI/CD intelligence for fast, reliable pipelines in AI-accelerated development.
  • Define and own measurement framework for AI adoption and internal tool impact.

  • Collaborate with Platform/SRE, Product Managers, Designers, and Engineers.
  • Produce well-tested, maintainable, performant code; conduct thorough code reviews.
  • Add enterprise-grade capabilities to internal AI tooling (identity/auth, governed data access, cross-system queries).
  • Establish technical standards for the Leverage team.

Requirements

  • Strong integration engineering: APIs, auth schemes (OAuth, API keys, SAML, service accounts), data formats, rate limits.
  • Experience with protocol-based architectures (MCP, LSP), SDKs, CLI tooling, developer platform design.
  • Full-stack capabilities: backend services, CLI tools, internal UIs.

  • Solving architecture problems with good design.
  • Unit testing frameworks and CI/CD pipelines.

  • Integrating multiple SaaS APIs (auth, pagination, rate limits).
  • Small team experience owning product portions.
  • Hands-on with AI coding tools (Copilot, Codex).
  • Experience at companies investing in internal tooling (Stripe, Shopify, etc.).
  • Workflow automation (n8n, Zapier, Workato).
  • Shared developer tooling ecosystems.
  • AI agent architectures (Codex skills, MCP tools, function calling).
  • Snowflake, PostgreSQL.
  • Fleet management industry knowledge.
