Job Summary: As a Software Engineer on the Platform team at AutogenAI, you will work on a combination of application infrastructure and developer infrastructure challenges to make our product and product team go faster 🚀 This can include many topics; improving auth/RBAC, building feature flag tooling to facilitate rollout of new features, spotting re-usable tooling and packaging it, or transitioning our repositories to a monorepo to improve build times. This role is a mix of traditional backend software engineering work and platform engineering work, where you’ll help with supporting some of our US-specific infrastructure while contributing to the application development. You will be joining a global team of DevOps Engineers and Software Engineers.

This is an ideal role for a backend-focused software engineer who wants to upskill and move closer to SRE/DevOps work. While a lot of the work has a focus on improving things behind the scenes, we are expecting to play a key role in the business this year as more enterprise customers onboard and require platform changes to effectively integrate with them – so there are many opportunities ahead to have direct business impact through this role. Location: 📍 This role is preferably based in the Northern Virginia/DC Metro GovCon corridor, including Tysons, Reston, Herndon, Chantilly, Arlington, Fairfax, and the surrounding DC market.

NYC may be considered for an otherwise exceptional candidate. Some travel may be required in the DC-area for customer meetings, with periodic travel to the Midtown NYC office as needed.

Requirements

due to our FedRAMP High authorization. This means we need folks onshore in the USA to support this. This is a strategic business focus for the company.

To this end, you’ll be part of an oncall rotation for this environment. g. auth, RBAC, logging, monitoring.

You will work closely within your team to make major improvements and changes to the application infrastructure. Improving the developer experience at AutogenAI: This encompasses deployment pipelines, local/remote development tooling, and anything that might improve the developer experience. This will be a combination of planned major improvements, and ad hoc improvements that you might spot and implement in an agile way.

Collaborating with the wider engineering team: you will have a lot of autonomy in this role to suggest the next improvements to implement; this means you should be building ties with the wider engineering team so you can figure out what might help them.
