Job description
We're looking for a motivated Associate Software Engineer to join our engineering team in a role focused on AI-augmented software quality. You'll work at the intersection of AI tooling and defect management - using AI to triage, patch, test, and deploy fixes across our stack. You'll collaborate closely with engineering and product teams to prioritize defects, own the testing and deployment of AI-implemented patches, and help monitor and manage triage workflows for the broader engineering organization. This is a hands-on role where you'll be moving fast, learning the codebase deeply, and pushing the boundaries of what's possible with AI-assisted development., This position will report to the Engineering Lead, and is on-site in Austin, TX! Availability to be in-office 4-5 days a week is required., * Triage and prioritize defects across the product, working with engineering and product teams to determine impact and urgency
