This is a high-impact role at the core of a strategic initiative to modernize Tealium's engineering ecosystem, enabling teams with intelligent, automated, and scalable tooling. In this role, you will directly empower Tealium's development teams to innovate faster, enhance code quality, and dramatically increase engineering productivity through AI. This is a unique opportunity to lead a critical strategic initiative, influence technical direction, and help teams adopt AI-forward development practices in a measurable, practical way across the engineering organization. As the driving force behind AI Developer Tools, your work will accelerate both engineering and business velocity by: * Accelerating Product Modernization, Engineering Velocity and Quality: Designing, building, and owning internal AI-driven developer platforms and tools (such as code review, test generation, migration automation, and CI/CD copilots) to achieve measurable improvements in engineering productivity and code quality. * This role involves defining evaluation frameworks, orchestration, and governance (guardrails) for integrating AI safely into the developer workflow to tackle technical debt and accelerate modernization initiatives (e.g., AWS SDK migrations, Java 21 upgrades). This role is perfect for a visionary technologist passionate about leveraging AI to redefine developer productivity and shape the future of engineering at Tealium. YOUR DAY TO DAY * Drive AI-Powered Refactoring of Monolithic Platform Components: Spearhead initiatives to break up legacy systems, streamline architecture, and reduce production incidents, accelerating modernization across Tealium's platform. * Design and Implement AI-Enhanced Code Review and Test Automation: Develop automated unit tests, improve test coverage, and eliminate manual QA bottlenecks, to enable faster, higher-quality releases. * Lead Measurement and Adoption of AI Tools: Establish AI scorecards, adoption KPIs, and metrics to track reductions in time-to-market, engineering efficiency improvements, and code quality gains (e.g., tickets closed per release, bug rates, code review cycle times), providing actionable insights to R&D leadership. * Evaluate and integrate best-in-class AI technologies, from code generation to test automation, to create a seamless and efficient engineering experience. * Establish and scale repeatable AI-assisted development workflows, standards, and reusable patterns across the R&D organization, with a focus on reducing bottlenecks and improving delivery speed and quality. * Serve as a technical authority and thought leader across the engineering org, promoting best practices and influencing decisions at all levels with a strong sense of ownership. * Drive large-scale modernization initiatives, partnering with other senior engineers to ensure adoption, scalability, and measurable impact. * Stay current with emerging AI and developer productivity trends, continuously pushing the boundaries of what's possible within our platform. * Articulate technical vision and strategic decisions to senior stakeholders and leadership across engineering, serving as the connective tissue for cross-functional initiatives. * Drive multi-week implementations of AI-powered developer tools, ensuring successful delivery and integration. ## Related Videos - [Swapping Low Latency Data Storage Under High Load](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/746-swapping-low-latency-data-storage-under-high-load) - [Do TypeScript without TypeScript](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/327-do-typescript-without-typescript) - [Developer Experience in the Age of AI](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1118-developer-experience-in-the-age-of-ai) - [Unleash the power of 5G in your code: transform your apps](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1567-unleash-the-power-of-5g-in-your-code-transform-your-apps) - [Vuejs and TypeScript- Working Together like Peanut Butter and Jelly](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/127-vuejs-and-typescript-working-together-like-peanut-butter-and-jelly) - [AI Driven Development](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100340-ai-driven-development) ## Related Articles - [Transforming Software Development: The Role of AI and Developer Tools](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/527-transforming-software-development-the-role-of-ai-and-developer-tools) - [What is Software Engineering in the Age of AI?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/640-what-is-software-engineering-in-the-age-of-ai) - [Navigating the AI Shift](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/629-navigating-the-ai-shift) - [Top AI Tools for Developers in 2025](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/560-top-ai-tools-for-developers-in-2025) - [Dev Digest 121 - AI goes offline](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/456-dev-digest-121-ai-goes-offline) - [How to Become an AI Engineer](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/331-how-to-become-an-ai-engineer)
