About the role

  • We are hiring a Senior AI Software Engineer to change the way we work with AI across the whole company.
  • We want you to be part of the team that provides the engineering rigor to make this platform reliable, secure, and easy to use.
  • Over the next six months we are standing up MCP connectors to the systems we run on, a shared library of agent skills every team composes from, and the infrastructure that turns a one-off prototype into durable tooling.

Responsibilities

  • Design and ship secure MCP (Model Context Protocol) connectors to Extend's internal systems and the third-party SaaS we run on: finance, CRM, data warehouse, expense management, product analytics, support, ATS, and the long tail beyond.
  • Build and curate the shared library of agent skills that every team at Extend composes from. Ship skills, codify patterns, and raise the floor for what a safe, high-quality skill looks like.
  • Build the tooling that lets non-engineers create reusable agent skills securely and reliably.
  • Fill the open phases of the lifecycle that governs how skills are designed, reviewed, and shipped, so non-engineers can build and ship intelligent automation end to end.
  • Build toward a connector-building agent: a meta-agent that discovers APIs, scaffolds MCP servers, and provisions access automatically. The end state is a platform that is itself an agent.
  • Own the employee experience for the agentic platform.
  • Help onboard employees to the tools with self-serve guides, build skills people can learn from, and run the feedback loop between what's shipped and what adopters actually need.
  • Design credential scoping and vending for agent connectors: how API keys are provisioned, rotated, and scoped per user, per skill, per connector. OAuth/OIDC where it fits, least-privilege everywhere.
  • Build the risk-tier and review model for shared agent skills: what's safe at personal, team, and org level

Requirements

  • Direct experience with Claude Code, MCP, or another agent framework (LangChain, CrewAI, AutoGen, OpenAI Agents SDK).

Nice to have

  • Experience with AWS CDK, CloudFormation, or similar infrastructure-as-code.
  • Experience with OpenTelemetry, Coralogix, or equivalent observability tooling.
  • Background in platform engineering, internal developer platforms (IDPs), or enterprise integration.
  • Prior IC role at an early-stage startup with a small team, wide surface area, and high pace.
  • Experience with LLM application security: OWASP LLM Top 10, prompt injection defense, agent sandboxing.
  • Background in supply chain security, dependency scanning, or SBOM tooling.
  • Individual salaries are determined based on a number of factors including, but not limited to, job-related knowledge, skills and experience.
  • Working with a great team from diverse backgrounds in a collaborative and supportive environment.

Skills

  • Proficient in at least one of Python, TypeScript/Node, or Rust.
