The role

You will build a shared AI engineering platform and set its target architecture. You will develop a golden path for AI-assisted engineering and deploy agents to perform end-to-end engineering tasks.

What you will do

• Set the target architecture for the AI engineering platform
• Make build or adopt decisions on agents, orchestration and developer tooling
• Ship a golden path for AI-assisted engineering with shared context, tools and guardrails
• Put agents to work on real engineering jobs such as feature implementation and code migrations
• Run agents in sandboxed environments with audit trails
• Shorten the path from merged code to production for regulated software
• Measure engineering changes with numbers such as agent pull request merge rates
• Take on hard cross-team technical problems

Required qualifications

• Designed and built platforms or core infrastructure that other engineers relied on
• Deep backend and distributed systems experience in production
• Engineering is AI-first using agents for work previously done by hand
• Able to take a clear position on hard technical questions with incomplete information
• Engineers outside your own team changed how they work because of something you built
• Able to work from our London, New York or Stockholm office

Nice to have
