• Provide feedback on agent performance to senior engineers via defined channel.
• Ensure code in Go, Python, or TypeScript is correct and secure.
• Contribute to design discussions, draft documentation, and test approaches.

Job description

Responsibilities:

• Take ownership of well-scoped projects end-to-end, directing agentic pipelines through technical design, implementation, testing, and deployment.
• Apply authoritative technical judgment to approve or reject agent-generated output.
• Relay structured feedback on agent performance and failure modes to Level III software engineers via a defined channel, so issues in agentic development are resolved at the source.
• Ensure source code written in Go, Python, or TypeScript is correct, secure, and adheres to team standards.
• Contribute to technical design discussions, using all available tools to explore trade-offs, draft documentation, and pressure-test approaches.
• Ensure final decisions and submitted code reflect your own reasoned analysis.
• Build, maintain, and debug ETL pipelines and data integrations, applying AI-assisted debugging and log analysis to identify root causes faster, and validating fixes with appropriate test coverage.
• Proactively identify risks, ambiguities, and systematic errors in agent output within your project scope. Surface them early and propose fixes, both to the immediate problem and to the agent's approach.
• Train and lead Level I software engineers in effective validation techniques for agentic output (what to check, common failure patterns, when to escape).

Experience:

• 2–4 years of professional software engineering experience, with at least one example of owning a feature or project from design through production deployment.
• Working proficiency in one or more of Go, Python, or TypeScript, with demonstrated ability to learn additional languages or frameworks as needed.
• Familiarity with cloud infrastructure concepts (preferably GCP) and comfort operating in containerized environments.
• Experience writing and debugging data pipelines or API integrations, with an understanding of data quality and failure modes.
• Ability to read and navigate an unfamiliar codebase, make targeted changes confidently, and write tests that cover meaningful cases.
• Clear written and verbal communication skills.
• Ability to document your own work, ask precise questions, and flag blockers without prompting.
• Experience working in K–12 education or a mission-driven organization is preferred but not required.

Requirements:

• Experience working in software development.
• Strong communication skills and the ability to effectively collaborate with team members.
• Understanding and strong ability to utilize AI workflows.
• Great medical, dental, and vision insurance options
• In addition to 14 observed holidays, team members have unlimited paid time off
• 401(k) plan with employer match
• Employer Paid Life Insurance
• Competitive Bonus Structure
• Awesome Collaborative Office Space located in Downtown Fresno
