We’re building across an open-source platform, enterprise software, and a managed data-services business that runs on our own product. We need to make delivery more predictable while giving engineers more ownership – not add another layer of approvals.

Responsibilities

  • Delivery: Planning, scoping, and shipping quality software against a roadmap you help shape. You make tradeoffs explicit and push back when we’re asking the team to do more than it can do well.
  • How the team works: Enough structure to make delivery predictable, not so much that it slows a small team down. You remove friction, address recurring blockers, and improve how we use AI tooling.
  • People: Hiring, clear expectations, regular feedback, growth, promotions, and exits when they’re necessary.
  • Technical judgment: Staying close enough to the code and architecture to challenge decisions and support engineers without becoming the approval gate for everything.
  • The engineering response to escalations: Getting the right people involved, making priority calls, and addressing recurring causes across customer, services-team, and open-source issues. You’re accountable for the response, not expected to personally fix every problem.
  • What we’re building
  • A ground-up rebuild of the annotation editor, with interfaces generated by coding agents instead of hand-configured.
  • Native evaluation of agent trajectories: trace ingestion, replay, and hybrid human-plus-model-judge workflows.
  • Continuous calibration: treating automated evaluators as instruments that can drift and need ongoing checks against human ground truth.
  • The workforce platform behind our managed services business.
