Job description

We are building a next-generation API Review Agent platform and developer tooling ecosystem. Our platform enables engineers to validate, review, govern, and automate API quality using AI-powered workflows.

Our vision extends far beyond backend services—we are creating world-class CLI tooling, SDKs, plugins, and developer experiences that can be distributed globally and adopted across thousands of engineering teams.

We are looking for engineers who are passionate about developer productivity, command-line tooling, software distribution, observability, and telemetry. You should be equally comfortable building Go-based CLIs, TypeScript developer tooling, release automation, update mechanisms, and analytics pipelines that help teams understand how tooling is used in production.
