Platform & Product Mindset * Have shipped developer platforms that real engineers adopted. * Have measured developer friction and shown clear before/after impact from tooling, CI, build, release, or workflow improvements. * Have strong intuition for developer experience, paved paths, and long-term maintainability. * Are comfortable owning the full lifecycle: design doc, MVP, hardening, adoption. * Can help teams adopt new tools and migrate existing workflows through clear documentation and practical support. Production & Reliability * Have owned developer-facing systems with real uptime and operational responsibility. * Are familiar with observability tooling and incident response. * Bring strong fundamentals in retries, idempotency, queueing, and failure modes for reliable build and automation systems. ## Description You'll join the team that owns the Software Factory: the development environments, build systems, CI/CD, and engineering automation that set the ceiling on how fast every other engineer at Brain Co. can ship high-quality software. This is a force-multiplier role: your work compounds as we add teams, services, and customers. You'll shape how engineers develop, test, review, and ship software, combining developer tooling, reliable infrastructure, and AI-assisted workflows to improve speed and quality across Brain Co. Your job is to discover, measure, and remove developer friction. You should be comfortable going from "this workflow is slow or confusing" to instrumented evidence, a shipped improvement, and clear before/after impact. Own developer environments and build infrastructure Own the local development experience, monorepo, build systems, and shared tooling. Make it easy for engineers to set up, develop, and test software, with fast and reliable workflows as the company scales. Build delivery workflows and engineering automation Own CI/CD, PR workflows, code-review automation, and shared tooling for product quality assurance. Integrate AI-assisted development and coding agents where they improve speed and quality, supporting delivery across cloud, regulated, and air-gapped environments. Measure and improve developer experience Discover, measure, and remove friction across the development lifecycle. Combine developer feedback with instrumentation to shorten feedback loops, improve reliability, and demonstrate clear before/after impact. Drive onboarding, enablement, and adoption Help engineers become productive quickly through intuitive tooling, documentation, and practical support. Guide teams through new workflows and migrations, and drive adoption through quality, not mandates. Operate the developer platform as a product Own the full lifecycle: architecture, implementation, rollout, reliability, and iteration based on internal user feedback. Partner closely with engineering, Infrastructure, and Security to build a platform teams trust and want to use. You Might Be a Great Fit If You… We're looking for engineers who treat developer experience as a product - engineers who reach for users, not just specs., * Built or integrated coding agents, automated code review, or AI-assisted testing into engineering workflows, with measurable improvements in speed or quality. * Experience with sandboxed code execution, credential scoping, or security controls for development agents. * Built or significantly contributed to a remote build cache, custom build system, or hermetic build pipeline (Bazel, Nix, etc.). * Led a polyrepo monorepo (or reverse) migration at scale. * Experience applying DORA / SPACE or other DX metrics in practice. * Background in release engineering, supply-chain security (SLSA, Sigstore), or artifact management. * Built internal PaaS, dev environments, or scaffolding generators. * Built shared quality-assurance infrastructure, such as end-to-end test harnesses, Storybook / visual-regression tooling, accessibility checks, or performance budgets across apps. * Open-source contributions to Nx plugins, GitHub Actions, coding-agent tooling, or related developer platforms. * Exposure to multi-tenant, regulated, or air-gapped deployment environments. Why This Role Matters You'll set the ceiling on how fast every other engineer at Brain Co. can ship. As we grow from a handful of teams to dozens - building AI systems for governments and regulated industries - the platform that lets us move quickly without breaking what matters becomes one of the highest-leverage systems in the company.
