- Lead the design and delivery of complex, cross-functional features across the product, from architecture through production operations.
- Build AI-native capabilities: agent loops and the tools they call, prompt and context design, retrieval that grounds and cites its answers, and the eval harnesses that tell us whether a change actually made the product better — with reliability and governance built in.
- Define and drive how the team uses AI across the development lifecycle: code generation, test automation, review, triage, and documentation. Agentic coding is central to how this team ships. Measure the impact and share what works.
- Mentor senior and mid-level engineers and set standards for code quality, observability, and safe AI usage.
- Partner with product, UX, and other engineering leads to turn ambiguous problems into scoped, shippable plans.
- Own production quality for your area, including defect triage, release readiness, and gate reviews.
## Qualifications
**What we’re looking for**
We don’t expect anyone to match every line below. Depth matters more to us than a match on any particular toolchain — be excellent in a modern typed stack and quick to pick up a new one.
- Experience leveraging or critically thinking about how to integrate AI into work processes, decision-making, or problem-solving. This includes current, hands-on fluency with AI-assisted and agentic development, and an opinion on where those tools help and where they don’t.
- 8+ years of software engineering experience, with a track record of technical leadership at the staff level or equivalent.
- Strong proficiency in TypeScript or another statically typed language, plus solid system design skills.
- Hands-on experience building or integrating LLM-based features: prompt design, retrieval or context management, evaluation, and cost/latency tradeoffs.
- Working knowledge of agentic architectures, including tool use, orchestration, and human-in-the-loop controls.
- Clear written and verbal communication, including the ability to brief senior leaders and align multiple teams.
- Familiarity with enterprise SaaS, multi-tenant systems, and secure, compliant software delivery.
**Why this role matters**
The agent runtime is the product. The patterns you set — how an agent decides, which tools it may call, what it must prove before it acts, and how we measure whether it got better — are what customers experience as intelligent workflows.
