Senior Developer Tooling Engineer

We are looking for a Senior Developer Tooling Engineer to join our team and help build a next-generation API Review Agent platform and developer tooling ecosystem. The platform enables engineers to validate, review, govern, and automate API quality using AI-powered workflows.

Our vision extends beyond backend services — we are creating world-class CLI tooling, SDKs, plugins, and developer experiences that can be distributed globally and adopted across thousands of engineers.

The ideal candidate is passionate about developer productivity, command-line tooling, software distribution, observability, and telemetry, and is equally comfortable building Go-based CLIs, release automation, update mechanisms, and analytics pipelines that help teams understand how tooling is used in production.

Responsibilities

• Design and develop production-grade CLI tools using Golang
• Build command-line experiences for API governance, review automation, developer workflows, and platform operations
• Create extensible plugin architectures and SDKs for internal and external consumers
• Design and implement software distribution strategies across macOS and Windows
• Build release pipelines, package managers, installers, auto-update mechanisms, and version management solutions
• Implement telemetry frameworks that measure adoption, usage patterns, performance, reliability, and feature engagement, ensuring collection follows privacy, compliance, and enterprise governance requirements
• Develop authentication, configuration, and credential-management capabilities for developer tools
• Build integrations with GitHub, GitLab, CI/CD systems, IDEs, and developer portals
• Create excellent documentation, tutorials, examples, and developer onboarding experiences
• Participate in architecture reviews, code reviews, and platform-wide engineering initiatives
• Drive reliability, scalability, security, and maintainability across the tooling ecosystem

Requirements

• 3+ years of experience in developer tooling or platform engineering
• Proficiency in Golang
• Background in building and maintaining production-grade CLI applications
• Deep understanding of software packaging and distribution technologies (Homebrew, npm, standalone binaries, installers, containers, etc.)
• Expertise in implementing telemetry, analytics, and usage instrumentation within developer tools
• Knowledge of OpenTelemetry, metrics collection, and observability best practices, including logging
• Skills in release engineering, CI/CD automation, and artifact management
• Understanding of API design, OpenAPI specifications, and developer experience principles
• Showcase of building SDKs, plugins, extensions, or developer productivity platforms
• Familiarity with authentication mechanisms, including OAuth, API keys, and enterprise SSO integrations
• Experience working with cloud-native and distributed systems, including GitHub Actions
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to work independently in ambiguous environments and drive technical decisions
• Strong English communication skills (B2 level or higher)

Nice to have

• Proficiency in TypeScript
• Background in developer platform engineering and open-source tooling ecosystems
• Familiarity with AI-assisted tooling and agent-based workflows
• Knowledge of software supply chain and artifact distribution
• Expertise in cross-platform desktop tooling
• Understanding of enterprise telemetry and analytics platforms, API governance, and developer portals
