Responsibilities
• Set the technical direction for AI-enabled workflow automation across build, CI, test, and release. • Build the shared foundation, including the agent harness and tool integrations into GitLab, Jira, test results, logs, and observability data. • Develop evaluation methodology to measure whether an automation saves time and preserves correctness. • Define guardrails and standards for where AI acts autonomously, where it proposes and a human decides, and how every change stays auditable. • Deliver the first Quality Engineering automations, including cross-layer failure attribution, failure clustering and defect deduplication, coverage-gap analysis, and release-readiness summaries. • Raise the bar across engineering through shared patterns, design reviews, and mentoring. • Determine when an agent, a deterministic tool with a narrow model step, or a simple script is the right solution, and teach that judgment to others. • Extensive production software engineering experience, with strong Python skills. • Enough Rust and/or C++ experience to understand build flows and diagnose compiler errors. • Experience shipping AI-enabled tools or automation that others relied on in production, beyond demos. • Deep hands-on experience with LLM APIs, agent harnesses, tool integration, and context engineering. • Experience designing evaluations for nondeterministic systems, showing that an automation helped without breaking something else. • Sound judgment about when AI is the right tool, including examples of choosing not to use it. • Strong fluency across the development lifecycle, including CI/CD, testing, and release processes. • A track record of setting technical direction across teams that do not report to you.
