About the role

  • You'll apply agentic development and AI-assisted workflows, using behavior-oriented prompts and specifications to guide AI agents to generate both implementation and verification.
  • A core component of this role involves working directly with customers to modernize their technology estates and raise their quality bar, with the goal of supporting business growth.

Responsibilities

  • Contribute to the end-to-end delivery of solutions - from scoping through implementation, verification, and deployment - building trust as a reliable partner for both features and quality.
  • Create structured, behavior-oriented prompts and specifications that guide AI agents to generate implementation code and the tests that verify it.
  • Feature Development: Build production-grade features alongside your quality work.
  • Design for Quality: Build with testability, resilience, and observability in mind from the outset. Participate in implementation reviews to ensure alignment with patterns, performance, and security expectations.
  • Support customer engineers in adopting agentic development, AI-assisted workflows, shift-left testing, and modern architectural practices so solutions remain sustainable long-term.
  • By sharing and embracing unique backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives, we learn from each other, innovate, and create a dynamic environment where we can be and achieve our best.
  • Carbon60 is committed to an equitable employee experience, opportunity, and support.
