Responsibilities

  • As our AI DevEx Engineer, you will lead the charge in transitioning AI from "experimental" to "essential." Your core responsibilities will include:
  • AI Tooling Orchestration: Lead the trials and deployment of next-generation engineering tools, including Claude Code, Kiro, and Opencode, ensuring they integrate seamlessly into the developer inner loop.
  • Infrastructure & Connectivity: Design and maintain our MCP (Model Context Protocol) registry, establishing a secure and scalable process for approving and deploying new servers and tools.
  • Agentic Workflows: Develop and maintain "Shared Agents" and agents.md standards to standardize coding styles and automate repetitive architectural tasks.
  • Spec-Driven Development: Build and evangelize "Build Your Own" AI solutions and low-code automations that support spec-driven development, reducing the gap between requirements and production code.
  • Enablement & Governance: Author high-quality onboarding documentation, security guidelines, and "Golden Path" examples that help engineers leverage AI safely and effectively.
  • Performance Analytics: Architect and automate the tracking of AI Impact Metrics, specifically focusing on the volume of AI-generated contributions within PRs and their correlation to code quality and velocity.
  • Security & Cost Optimization: Partner with security and finance teams to ensure our AI usage reinforces our security safeguards and remains cost-efficient at scale.
  • About You
  • Production-Grade AI Implementation: You have experience building and running production systems, but you're also deeply curious about the "LLM-ops" lifecycle-moving beyond chat interfaces to integrated agentic workflows.
  • Systems Thinker: You possess a solid foundational knowledge of distributed systems and understand how to integrate third-party AI APIs (like Claude or OpenAI) without compromising system reliability or latency.
  • Infrastructure as Code & Beyond: You have hands-on experience with AWS in production, and you treat AI prompts, MCP configurations, and agent definitions with the same version-control rigor as your infrastructure.
  • The DevEx Mindset: You are passionate about developer productivity. You don't just build tools; you build experiences that make an engineer's day-to-day life easier and more creative.
  • Security & Governance First: You understand the risks of AI (data leakage, prompt injection) and can design approval processes and security guardrails that protect the business without slowing down innovation.
  • Data-Informed: You enjoy defining and automating metrics-like tracking AI-generated code volume or PR velocity-to prove the value of the too
