Our team owns the surfaces through which humans and agents connect to the company - including the the company MCP Server, Agent Skills, our Intelligent Assistant Platform, and purpose-built agents. In short: if it's how an agent talks to the company, we're building it.

You'll integrate with fast-moving, often unproven technologies, make pragmatic calls in the face of ambiguity, and own high-visibility projects end to end with minimal guidance. We're looking for product-minded engineers who thrive on autonomy and take pride in shipping. the company engineering teams pride themselves on building high-quality software and living our cultural values every day - we value intellectual curiosity and honesty, and building together in an environment that prioritizes collaboration over competition.

• Take ownership of ambiguous problems and drive them to completion independently, making sound decisions as requirements evolve
• Contribute to shaping architecture, code reviews, and development practices, as well as developer experience, as the teams and product grow
• Mentor fellow engineers and assume ownership and accountability of projects

Qualifications

• Strong background in building core components for scalable, high-availability web applications and services
• 5+ years of experience building backend systems, primarily in Node.js and TypeScript, with an interest in working across a polyglot codebase
• Proven success in designing, writing, testing, debugging, and performance tuning software systems in large, long-lived code bases
• Track record of identifying problems, implementing solutions, and delivering complex projects independently with minimal guidance
• A product-minded approach to engineering, with the judgment to make pragmatic tradeoffs and the comfort to operate amid ambiguity and rapidly evolving technologies
