About you:
- BS / BA college degree or relevant experience
About you:
- AI-first is your default operating mode
- You have a genuine passion for building internal platforms where agents are first-class tenants; designing the APIs, guardrails, and observability that let humans and autonomous systems ship together without friction.
- You exhibit proficiency in programming languages such as JavaScript, TypeScript with hands-on experience with modern web technology such as React, Node.js, Tailwind.css, and frameworks such as Next.js and Remix.
- You have a solid grasp of containerization and orchestration tools like Docker and Kubernetes and extensive experience designing APIs
- You possess a deep understanding of monorepo management, including the design and architectural patterns required to maintain performance and developer sanity at scale.
- You can navigate the trade-offs between Developer Experience (DX) and platform-native technologies, ensuring our stack (JavaScript, TypeScript, React, etc.) remains both modern and maintainable.
- You are committed to establishing "paved paths" and self-service capabilities that allow teams to bundle, build, and deploy code—both within and outside the monorepo—with minimal friction.
- You effectively connect the dots across multiple engineering teams, collaborating with senior leaders to architect high-quality solutions that balance speed with security and stability.
- You are committed to cultivating an inclusive team culture and mentoring other engineers to foster a high-performance, continuous-learning environment.
- You stay curious and open to growth — demonstrating a proactive embrace of AI, and actively building and applying fluency in emerging technologies to elevate how we work, drive faster outcomes, and expand collective impact.

- Invest in your future. A 401(k) with 100% employer match (up to $6,000/year) in the U.S., and support for retirement savings globally.
