Full Job Description
What you could work on
  • Build and evolve Codesmith, our background coding agent - designing the workflows, UI, and infrastructure that let engineers delegate coding tasks to AI and ship faster
  • Create tools that help engineers and AI agents debug flaky CI jobs: surfacing patterns in test failures, correlating logs with infrastructure signals, and making root cause analysis fast and intuitive
  • Work closely with design to ship polished, high-performance product surfaces across our analytics and observability platform, where engineers go to understand their CI systems
  • Prototype and iterate rapidly on AI-powered features - from natural language interfaces to automated fix generation - and own the full stack from prompt design to backend service to UI
  • Contribute to the architecture of the agent platform: how we run sandboxed workspaces, and orchestrate agent sessions

You are a good fit if you
  • Have strong CS fundamentals and a deep understanding of React and modern frontend development.
  • Can work closely with design to build polished, high-performance UIs - and aren't afraid to go deep on browser performance, rendering bottlenecks, or complex component architecture.
  • Have 3+ years of software development experience.
  • Enjoy working in person 5 days a week in NYC.
  • Enjoy working at a very early-stage startup and are comfortable with ambiguity.

Bonus
  • You've dabbled in your own side hustles or start-up projects.
  • You're comfortable creating new processes and iterating on them quickly.

Compensation and benefits
  • Medical, Vision, and Dental insurance.
  • Competitive base + equity.
  • 401K match.
  • Unlimited PTO.
  • Annual offsite.
  • Early-exercise stock options
  • 12 weeks fully paid parental leave (US)
