We're building for developers, with developers — and we believe AI should feel like magic and make you more productive. Our team is small, passionate, and laser-focused on solving big problems with clean code and even cleaner UX.
We’re now hiring a Senior Software Engineer in a unique Pre-sales Deployed Engineer role to join us at the intersection of tech and customer success.

* Act as the technical expert in sales conversations — whether it’s with developers or the C-suite.
* Lead product deep dives, live demos, and technical evaluations that highlight our AI-powered magic.
* Translate real-world customer feedback into meaningful product insights for our Engineering and Product teams.
* Build resources that scale — from internal tools to developer guides, blog posts, and onboarding materials.
* Collaborate cross-functionally with Sales, Product, and Engineering to drive adoption and success.
Key Challenges You’ll Help Solve
* How can we help enterprises adopt AI coding tools at scale — fast and effectively?
* What are our customers’ toughest questions, and how do we answer them with clarity and confidence?
* What big, painful problems are we uniquely positioned to solve?
* How do we continue being the best AI company to work with?
Who You Are
* You’re a senior-level software engineer with strong communication skills and a customer-first mindset.
* You’ve worked closely with customers or cross-functional teams and can break down complex ideas into clear technical solutions.
* You enjoy thinking on your feet, solving real-world problems, and helping users succeed.
* Bonus: You’ve worked in a startup or fast-paced environment, and you’re excited by ambiguity and impact.
