Senior Software Engineer – Agent Developer Platform
Alpaca , Remote - Europe, Americas +2
The role
We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer to build the developer platform that agents and partners use to integrate and build on. You evolve Alpaca’s MCP servers, tools, and skills, and you build the APIs behind them.
You play a central role to define the architecture that provides the fastest time to market for integrators. Builders who embed Alpaca for their end users all use this surface.
This is a hands-on role. You will lead through architecture, code, design reviews, and mentorship, and you will ship the first version yourself. You will partner with Product, Compliance, Risk, and Platform Engineering teams.
What you need
- 5+ years of software engineering experience, with ownership of production systems that other developers use.
- Shipped a developer-facing API, SDK, or platform as a primary contributor.
- Enough MCP architecture to work with stateless and stateful behavior, and experience building to MCP, or to connector, plugin, or skill standards, as they have changed in production.
