Job summary

MaintainX is building a dedicated team to accelerate how developers build and ship software with AI. You will own the agent infrastructure, from isolated dev environments to agent orchestration, ensuring consistency across dev, CI, and production.

You will integrate agents with internal tooling, instrument runs with OpenTelemetry, and establish MCP standards. This role partners with product and platform teams to drive adoption and provide enablement across the company.

Qualifications

• 4+ years of experience in platform development, developer experience, or infrastructure.
• Hands-on experience with AI coding tools and interest in agentic workflows.

• Design and maintain reproducible developer environments, ensuring dev, CI, and agent environments are identical by construction.
• Integrate agents with internal and external tooling so agents can be triggered from anywhere and agents have the context they need to act.
• Instrument agent runs with OpenTelemetry to produce traces of tool invocations, CI outcomes, and failure points, turning AI pipelines from black boxes into observable systems.
• Establish standards for MCP tool development and agent configuration sharing so teams can author capabilities once and reuse them across repos.
• Collaborate with product and platform teams as internal customers, running enablement, demos, and office hours to drive adoption of the agent platform.
