- Take features from initial scoping to ongoing refinement alongside product, design and customer-facing teams.
- Help set the standard for AI-assisted development practices on the team.
Requirements
What we're looking for
- 6 to 10 years of software engineering experience.
- Experience at top-tier, fast-growing technology companies.
- Track record of driving a product from initial scoping and architecture through launch and follow-up improvements.
- Hands-on work shipping AI-powered software features that real users depend on, such as streaming, agent-based systems, evaluation or search.
