• Power user of Claude Code for real, shipped work — not just experimentation.
• Strong general engineering: Python and/or JavaScript/TypeScript, REST APIs, cloud services and webhooks.
• Experience building and operating Slack apps/bots (Slack API, event subscriptions, bot deployment).
• Excellent project management and communication — able to be the calm, organized front door for users while also going deep technically.

• Monitor platform health and adoption, and keep runbooks and documentation current.
• Build custom integrations, Slackbots, and agents that connect our AI tools to internal content and workflows.
• Make sure what you build is reliable in production, with monitoring and evaluation built in.
• Manage incoming AI use-case requests: scope, prioritize, and route each one to the right tool, and keep stakeholders updated along the way.
