Job description

Join Emergent, a leader in autonomous coding agents, and revolutionize software development. We generate, test, and deploy production applications directly from plain-language intent, powering millions of real-world applications.

Our platform runs at a global scale, serving over 10 million users across 190+ countries and building more than 12 million applications. We're backed by top investors and composed of seasoned founders, Olympiad medalists, and alumni from premier institutions like IIT & IIM. We are seeking passionate engineers who thrive on ownership, speed, and making a global impact.

We are dedicated to solving the most complex challenges in AI-driven software creation, focusing on correctness, reliability, security, and scalability in production environments.

Responsibilities

Take ownership of a team's strategic area, encompassing critical systems like agent job orchestration, sandboxing, or the serving layer for routing, quotas, cost, and reliability. You will define roadmaps, ensure quality, manage on-call responsibilities, and drive root cause analysis.

Develop essential tooling, evaluation frameworks, and workflows that empower the entire engineering team. You will maintain and enhance CI/CD pipelines and test frameworks, ensuring that agent-built changes can be deployed with auditable verification.

Your leadership will ensure new engineers and their agents become productive within your domain swiftly, fostering an environment of rapid onboarding and development.

Qualifications

Demonstrate the ability to present and defend comprehensive design documents and RCAs, including thorough consideration of alternatives, failure modes, and rollout/rollback strategies.

Showcase experience leading architectural changes across multiple systems, quantifying bottlenecks, and ensuring compatibility during migrations. Your contributions should be extendable by others without requiring core redesign.

Exhibit a strong track record of mentoring and growing engineers through calibrated feedback on designs. You will collaborate with product teams as a peer, driving innovation and delivering impactful solutions.
