• Turn emerging technology into reliable products: Experiment with new AI and agentic capabilities, then strengthen them for secure, robust, and scalable enterprise use.
• Drive technical direction: Bring structure to ambiguous problems and lead complex initiatives from architecture through implementation, launch, and iteration.
• Design and build: Develop scalable full-stack solutions with a strong focus on backend systems, APIs, security, reliability, and performance.
• Raise the engineering bar: Lead technical reviews, mentor other engineers, and improve the architecture and practices that support the team’s long-term growth.

Qualifications

• Staff-level engineering leadership: 10+ years of software engineering experience, leading complex technical initiatives, influencing architecture, and helping other engineers make better technical decisions.

• Full-stack expertise with backend depth: Significant experience building scalable systems, APIs, and platform capabilities, with strong judgment around security, reliability, performance, and maintainability.
• AI-native engineering: Experience using AI throughout the development workflow and building LLM-powered products, agentic workflows, MCP integrations, or similar AI-enabled systems.
• Pragmatic technical judgment: Ability to balance long-term architectural investments with speed, customer needs, and measurable product impact.
• Clear communication and collaboration: Ability to bring structure to complex problems, explain technical trade-offs clearly, and build alignment across engineering, product, and design.

Requirements

• Experience building enterprise SaaS products in an early-stage or high-growth environment.
• Experience with identity and access management, including technologies such as OAuth/OIDC, SSO, SCIM, or role-based authorization.
• Experience designing APIs and third-party integrations within enterprise ecosystems.
• Experience with infrastructure as code, particularly Terraform.
