Required
The below is a starting point. We always make space for exceptional people, so if you don't fit this role exactly, tell us where you would.
You've shipped production code in Go, Python, or TypeScript, and you pick up whatever language the problem demands.
You've built real features on LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, or open-weight models), MCP servers, and agentic frameworks.
You work daily with AI coding tools like Claude Code and Cursor, and you get agents doing useful work autonomously alongside you.
You identify problems, design the solution, and ship it without waiting for direction or approval.
You've moved fast under deadline while leaving foundations that other engineers extended after you moved on.
You've sat the on-call rotation or worked beside the people who do, and you've turned operational pain into systems that made the pager quieter.
Your product taste shows in what you've shipped: interfaces the engineers on the rotation call obvious, and workflows that match how the work actually happens.
Bonus: Production engineering or SRE on large GPU fleets. Hardware qualification or burn-in frameworks. BMC, Redfish, or IPMI tooling. CMMS, DCIM, or asset management systems. BMS/EPMS or SCADA. Prometheus and Grafana.
