About the role

We use AI every day, and not as a productivity add-on. It's woven into how we work at every level. We're rethinking how work gets done, who does what, and what a small team can accomplish. If you've already built AI into how you work, you'll hit the ground running. If you haven't, you'll need to be ready to learn fast and work differently than you have before.

What they're looking for

  • You have deep knowledge in AWS, infrastructure as code (Terraform), Kubernetes, and Postgres, with production experience operating a large web and mobile application surface area
  • You have experience putting coding agents and LLM tooling to work in a real software lifecycle: CI integration, evaluation, guardrails, and cost control. You have improved how an engineering org adopts them
  • You have a grounded view on CI/CD, know what a regression suite platform should cover, how to keep it fast and trusted, and how to help engineers move from manual to automated testing
  • You are fluent in delivery and reliability metrics and able to use them to coach a team rather than rank people
  • You are a clear writer who builds alignment through proposals and decision records in a remote and asynchronous company
  • You are curious and experimental with new tools, with a track record of independently adopting generative AI to accelerate your own work and your team's
