Job description
This is a role for an engineer who can work independently on well-defined platform problems, bring real ownership to their work, and grow quickly in a high-impact environment. You'll ship features across the DevEx stack - from CI pipeline components and test tooling to artifact APIs and agentic developer integrations. What You'll Do
- Design and implement well-scoped features across the DevEx platform with minimal day-to-day supervision - CI (continuous integration) pipeline components, test experience tooling, artifact APIs, ephemeral developer environment services, and agentic developer integrations.
- Take end-to-end ownership of platform features. Write the design doc, ship the implementation, validate behavior in production, and follow through on issues until they're resolved.
- Contribute to the agentic developer platform. Implement MCP server endpoints, tool SDKs, or integrations that expose DevEx capabilities to LLMs and autonomous agents in structured, safe ways.
- Build and maintain services for artifact publishing, retrieval, and version management that reliably serve engineering teams at scale.
- Identify inefficiencies and reliability gaps in developer workflows, from code authoring to deployment, and propose concrete improvements with clear rationale.
- Participate actively in design and code reviews, sharing your perspective on implementation approaches, surfacing risks, and giving constructive feedback to peers.
- Help onboard new hires and interns, sharing context on team systems and development practices.
Requirements
- 2-5 years of professional software engineering experience building and shipping production software.
- Solid engineering fundamentals. You write clean, testable, well-structured code and understand how to design for reliability and maintainability at a component level.
- Proficiency in Go, Python, or a similar language; experience shipping services in cloud-native environments.
- Working knowledge of CI/CD systems. You've used them, debugged them, and have a growing sense of how they're built.
- Familiarity with Kubernetes basics, such as how workloads are defined, scheduled, and operated at the cluster level.
- Curiosity about AI-powered developer tooling. You're interested in how LLMs and agents can accelerate developer workflows, and you want to help build that.
- Ownership mentality. You follow through on commitments, communicate proactively when plans change, and close loops without being asked.
- Collaborative team player who participates in design discussions and gives and receives feedback well.
Nice to Have
- Experience contributing to CI infrastructure or developer tooling (pipeline execution, build optimization, test reliability improvements).
- Experience with artifact management, storage systems, or APIs for publishing and retrieving versioned software artifacts (e.g. JFrog Artifactory, Cloudsmith, or OCI registries).
- Familiarity with ephemeral and hermetic development environments and the platform services that power them.
- Familiarity with LLM-integrated developer tooling, such as MCP servers, tool-augmented agents, AI code generation, or agentic test generation systems.
