Responsibilities

• Build and ship across the full stack. Own meaningful product capabilities end to end, including application architecture, data models, backend services, APIs, integrations, AI systems, and user experiences. Work directly with product managers and designers to turn customer problems into simple, high-quality products. Move comfortably between prototyping and production engineering, making thoughtful decisions about when to optimize for speed and when to invest for scale, security, and reliability.
• Build AI-native products. Design and implement agentic systems, including model interactions, tool use, retrieval, orchestration, state management, evaluations, observability, and guardrails. Build products that perform reliably against complex, real-world industry workflows rather than only in controlled demonstrations. Evaluate model and system behavior rigorously, understand failure modes, and improve the product through evidence.
• Work in an AI-native engineering model. Use coding agents and AI development tools extensively throughout the engineering lifecycle. Create the context, specifications, tests, development environments, CI pipelines, and evaluation systems that allow agents to produce high-quality work safely and efficiently. Direct multiple streams of agent-assisted work where appropriate, review outputs critically, and remain accountable for everything that reaches production.
• Set technical direction. Translate ambiguous product opportunities into clear technical approaches and executable plans. Make sound architecture decisions for new product areas and carry those decisions from prototype through production. Balance speed, simplicity, extensibility, security, cost, and operational reliability. Identify where the team should build, buy, integrate, or deliberately defer.
• Own product and production outcomes. Stay close to users and customers and understand the workflows your software is changing. Use customer feedback, product data, evaluations, and operational signals to improve the product continuously. Own reliability, observability, security, performance, and maintainability in production. Treat successful adoption and customer outcomes as engineering concerns.
• Raise the engineering bar. Provide rigorous technical review on the work that matters most. Help other engineers improve their judgment, execution, and use of AI-native development practices. Contribute to the shared architecture, tools, standards, and operating practices of the broader product engineering organization. Help define how small, AI-native product teams should work as the company grows.
