- Translate ambitious business and executive goals into concrete technical implementations, building custom integrations, extensions, and solutions using Blitzy's AI capabilities
- Write production-quality code that integrates Blitzy with existing enterprise systems, while developing reusable patterns, scripts, and tools that accelerate customer adoption
- Debug complex issues spanning customer infrastructure and the Blitzy platform, and create technical demos that showcase advanced use cases and demonstrate customer value
- Drive successful POCs that expand into enterprise-wide deployments, while identifying expansion opportunities based on technical insights and customer needs
- Become a trusted technical advisor to engineering leaders, earning their confidence through hands-on expertise and the ability to translate technical possibilities into business outcomes
- Decompose executive vision into actionable engineering roadmaps and identify recurring customer patterns that influence product priorities and roadmap decisions
- Collaborate with our product and engineering teams to turn field experience into platform improvements, technical documentation, reusable best practices, and contributions to the core Blitzy platform
Qualification - 4+ years of software engineering experience with a track record of shipping production code
- Fluency in multiple programming languages, including Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, Java, Go, or C#
- Strong understanding of modern software development practices, including CI/CD, microservices, cloud architecture, and Agile/Scrum
- Experience with enterprise software development lifecycles, Jira, legacy system modernization, and large-scale migrations
- Proven ability to navigate complex technical environments and build strong relationships with technical and business stakeholders
- Strong communication skills, with the ability to explain complex technical concepts to audiences ranging from interns to CTOs
- Experience in customer-facing engineering, high-growth startups, AI/ML, developer tools, or enterprise modernization is a plus
