Overview

We're looking for an AI Enablement Engineer to join our Team. You'll work directly with Developer Marketing Operations teams to turn repetitive work into practical, AI-supported workflows. You'll also find high-friction processes and build agents, prompts, bots, templates, CLI-assisted workflows, and automation patterns, then package what works so other teams can reuse it. This is a forward-deployed role: you will work alongside teams, learn how their work actually gets done, and help them move from manual or blank-page work to AI-supported first drafts. People stay in control of judgment, quality, and final decisions.

You will build with the newest AI tools every day and watch real people use what you ship. The patterns you write get picked up by other teams, so a good first version spreads well beyond the team you started with.

Responsibilities

What you'll do:

  • Use AI tools and practices across the software development lifecycle to turn repetitive Developer Marketing Operations work into AI-supported workflows.


  • Learn how each team's work actually gets done, and translate what you see into agents, prompts, bots, templates, and CLI-assisted automation.


  • Lead design discussions for each workflow, test design hypotheses, and write clear specifications for what you build.


  • Build first-draft automations (context prep, summaries, updates, analysis, next steps) for Hubbers to review and decide on.


  • Write code and workflows that are extensible, maintainable, well-tested, and secure, and use debugging tools to confirm they hold up in daily use.


  • Review and harden what you ship: test coverage, adherence to standards, and security built into each layer.


  • Package what works so one team's win becomes a pattern other teams adopt without an engineering ticket.


  • Help non-engineering Hubbers feel confident using AI in real, everyday work.
