## About the Role

* 1+ years of professional software engineering experience, or an equivalent track record of shipping real products
 * Strong backend fundamentals. You've built APIs, databases and services that run in production. Our stack is Python, Postgres, OpenSearch and gRPC on AWS.
 * You're AI native. You understand how agents work under the hood: tool calls, MCP servers, hooks and context.
 * You're comfortable with ambiguity. You've worked somewhere small and fast, you start before the spec is finished, and you change direction when customers tell you something new.
 * You take ownership. This is a high-intensity role on a product that's still finding product market fit. We work hard and move fast, and we want people who are excited by that.
 * Nice to have: experience with endpoint or client software (MDM, software that runs on laptops), a security or identity background.

## Description

* Ship backend features end to end, from a rough customer ask to running in production, often in days rather than weeks.
 * You don't just ship to a spec, rather you ensure value is delivered to customers. You are a valued member of the oncall rotation.
 * Build the testing systems and harnesses that let agents ship changes safely.
 * Work directly with customers when issues arise.
 * You utilize agents heavily in your day to day work, but you have a deep understanding of the system architecture and can whiteboard it for a coworker at a moment's notice.
