You write production code, shape architecture alongside our senior engineers, and set the quality bar. Your highest leverage, though, is pulling the rest of the team into AI-native development — proving what's possible with agentic tooling, codifying the patterns that work, and refusing to let the team default back to old habits.What You'll Own\r\nShip at exponential pace.Build full-stack features end-to-end using agentic development workflows. Default mode is ship-to-learn behind feature flags — not month-long spec cycles.\r\nPull the team forward on AI.You are the team's accelerant for agentic development. Demonstrate, codify, and evangelize the workflows that turn a two-week feature into a two-day feature.\r\nArchitect for agents.Shape full-stack systems where agents are first-class components — planning loops, tool use, memory, evaluation. Make pragmatic calls on quality, cost, and latency.\r\nSet the engineering bar.Drive code quality, testing, observability, and security — at AI-native speed, never as a brake.\r\nShip LLM-powered features responsibly.RAG pipelines, tool-use integrations, evaluation harnesses. Manage hallucination, prompt injection, and runaway cost.\r\nMentor and unblock.Coach through code review, pairing, and design reviews. Remove obstacles so the team can ship.\r\nOwn production reliability.Lead incident response and drive blameless postmortems.\r\nWhat We're Looking For\r\nAI-Native Mindset (this is the filter)\r\nYou use Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, or equivalent agentic tools every day in production work — not as an experiment, not as a side toy.\r\nStrong opinions on what to delegate to agents, what to verify, and where humans still need to drive.\r\nYou've shipped LLM-powered features in production: prompting, structured output, tool/function calling, streaming.\r\nHands-on experience designing agentic systems: planning loops, tool use, memory, multi-step execution, evaluation.\r\nFamiliarity with RAG, embeddings, and vector stores (Azure AI Search).\r\nWorking knowledge of LLM evaluation: offline evals, golden datasets, LLM-as-judge, guardrails, prompt injection mitigation.\r\nVoracious curiosity. You track the frontier — papers, model releases, new tools — and pull what actually works back to the team.\r\nEngineering Foundation\r\n7+ years of professional software engineering, including 2+ years as a technical lead or leading teams. Shorter timeline is fine if you've shipped harder things faster than that implies.\r\nStrong CS fundamentals: data structures, algorithms, concurrency, distributed systems.\r\nDeep experience in a modern back-end stack: C#/.NET 8+, TypeScript/Node, Go, Python, Java, or Kotlin. REST and gRPC API design.\r\nProficiency with a modern front-end framework (React, Next.js, Angular, or Vue) plus TypeScript.\r\nStrong SQL (Postgres, SQL Server, or MySQL) plus a non-relational or event store (Redis, Mongo, DynamoDB, Kafka).\r\nCloud-native delivery on Azure, AWS, or GCP. Containers, orchestration, and IaC (Terraform, Bicep, or Pulumi).\r\nCI/CD discipline (Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions). Git workflows with disciplined review.\r\nObservability (OpenTelemetry, Datadog, App Insights) and secure-by-default development.\r\nTrack record of shipping and operating non-trivial production systems end-to-end.\r\nLeadership\r\nYou lead by demonstration.
