Обязанности
- AI is rapidly changing who can build software and how quickly they can do it. At , we’re strongly leaning into that opportunity across the company: helping engineers ship better software faster, and helping people in sales and other business teams build tools that solve their own problems.
- You’ll help us build two teams, each with its own manager:
- AI Developer Experience: Build the tooling, agent workflows, practical testing infrastructure, and development environments that accelerate our engineering organization.
- AI Business Enablement: Give non-technical employees the tools, training, and secure infrastructure to build and run useful apps and automations with AI.
- These teams share a goal: make it easy to turn an idea into working software, with the right standards for how that software is built, connected, and maintained.
- We already have AI tools, internal tooling, and cloud environments in place. Your job is to turn that foundation into a consistent way of working that people want to adopt—and a measurable improvement in how quickly the company delivers.
- Set a clear strategy across both teams, balancing shared infrastructure with the different needs of engineers and business users.
- Lead and develop two managers, hire strong teams, and set a high bar for technical execution and user experience.
- Stay close to the technology: evaluate tools, prototype workflows, and make sound decisions about what to build and what to buy.
- Drive adoption through useful products, strong defaults, and close partnerships with Engineering, Security, IT, and business leaders.
- Measure results through shorter delivery cycles, reliable software, time saved, and sustained use of the tools your teams provide.
- Keep improving the approach as models and tools evolve, turning promising advances into practical capabilities.
Требования
- Hands-on AI experience and a clear point of view. You use coding agents regularly and have changed how a team builds software with AI. You can explain what worked, what failed, and how you measured the difference.
- Technical and organizational depth. You bring 10+ years in software engineering and 4+ years leading engineering teams, including experience managing managers.
- Strong platform fundamentals. You’ve built developer tooling, test infrastructure, or development platforms for complex systems, and understand what makes engineers trust and adopt them.
- Sound judgment about safe AI development. You understand agent workflows, context, sandboxed environments, permissions, evaluation, and cost management.
- A product mindset. You learn how people work, identify their biggest obstacles, and build tools they choose to use.
- The ability to serve different audiences. You can work credibly with senior engineers and help non-technical colleagues turn a business problem into a useful, maintainable tool.
- High standards for leadership. You develop managers, give direct feedback, make thoughtful talent decisions, and stay close enough to the work to guide it.
- You'll get competitive perks and benefits , from health & wellness to equity, to help you bring your best self to work.
