Zusammenfassung

Wonder is seeking a Senior Principal Engineer to help stand up an early-stage AI-enabled developer tooling team. You will design and ship context aggregation, MCPs/CLIs, and sub-agents that safely access Wonder's codebases and systems, enabling improved AI-assisted workflows for review, testing, documentation, and code generation.

You will drive external patterns into Wonder's practices, shape pre-review tooling, and optimize AI costs while ensuring scalable, production-ready solutions across

Qualifikationen

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• 5+ years of professional software engineering experience, including recent hands-on work with or on top of LLM-based tooling (agents, MCP servers, coding assistants, or similar).
• Direct experience integrating AI tools into real development workflows — code review, testing, code generation, or documentation — beyond individual use as an end user.
• Strong system design skills and a track record of owning tools or platforms end-to-end, from design through adoption.
• Comfort operating with ambiguity: this is a new team without established playbooks, and you'll be shaping them.
• Experience designing and consuming APIs, webhooks, or other integration/message-based systems.
• Experience building developer tooling, internal platforms, CI/CD systems, or other software used by engineers as its primary users.

Aufgaben

• Build AI-Native Developer Tooling: design and ship context aggregation solutions, MCPs/CLIs, skills, and sub-agents that give AI coding tools access to Wonder's codebases, services, and systems.
• Help define and stand up Wonder's autonomous development agents and cloud agent solutions.
• Bring outside patterns in: translate best emerging practices into standards that fit Wonder's stack and scale.
• Raise the ceiling on review: contribute to pre-review and triage tooling to automate issues.
• Instrument for efficiency: design systems that optimize AI costs and route tasks to the right model at the right cost.
• Guide technical outcomes: scope, design, and ship tooling with minimal oversight and cross-team collaboration.
• Communicate effectively: write clear specs and documentation and incorporate feedback.
