What We're Looking For
Must Have
- Experience building and shipping AI-powered products
- Demonstrated leadership and hands-on expertise in adopting agentic development practices across the full software development lifecycle (SDLC), leveraging tools such as Codex, Claude Code, and Google Antigravity to accelerate engineering productivity, code quality, and delivery velocity
- Hands-on experience working with large language models (LLMs) and AI application architectures
- Ability to rapidly move from concept to MVP in fast-paced environments
- Experience integrating AI capabilities into business processes and operational workflows
- Strong ownership mindset with a bias toward execution and accountability
