  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • Experience building developer tools, desktop applications, or runtime infrastructure used directly by developers.
  • Familiarity with the agentic software development ecosystem: how coding agents work and how tools like Claude Code, Codex, or similar agents interact with their environment.
  • Ability to reason about isolation and security boundaries: what a sandbox should and shouldn't expose, and how to make safe defaults obvious to users.
  • Experience driving architecture and technical strategy across multiple engineers or teams.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills.
  • Comfortable working with a high degree of autonomy in a remote-first environment.

  • Drive the reliability and performance of sandbox creation, session management, and teardown for AI agent workloads.
  • Collaborate with peers, Product, and adjacent teams to evolve the architecture as requirements grow.
  • Mentor engineers on the team and set the bar in design reviews and code reviews.

  • Participate in on-call rotations and respond to critical stability issues affecting users.
  • Document your work clearly and share knowledge with the rest of the team.
