## About the role

More and more PlanetScale databases are created, connected and queried by AI agents. Cursor, Claude Code, Codex and a growing list of other tools now sit between developers and their infrastructure. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- Build and maintain the plugins for PlanetScale in every AI marketplace and directory: agent plugins, skill registries, MCP directories, IDE extension stores and AI app builders
- Own our integrations with AI coding tools, agent frameworks and platforms
- Stay current with AI tools as they launch and ensure our customers have a great experience from day one
- Test the PlanetScale MCP server and CLI across Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, VS Code and other clients, and catch regressions before users do
- Find friction in creating a database, connecting, running migrations and debugging queries from inside an agent, then fix it or drive the fix with the owning team
- Improve the context agents rely on: tool descriptions, skills, llms.txt, docs written for agents, and error messages agents can act on
