Lead AI-Native Software Engineer shaping software development at DevIQ specializing in cloud and data solutions. Oversee technical architecture and lead project delivery in a client-facing role.

Responsibilities:

  • Lead the architecture, design, and implementation of modern software solutions for clients, serving as the senior technical voice on consulting engagements
  • Use agentic AI tools (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or similar) as a primary development workflow, delegating implementation, testing, and refactoring tasks to agents while maintaining rigorous quality standards
  • Design codebases to be agent-friendly, with clear conventions, strong automated test coverage, and documentation that enables AI tooling to work effectively
  • Establish review and verification practices for AI-generated code, ensuring correctness, security, and maintainability in everything the team ships
  • Build and maintain prompts, custom agents, and CI/CD integrations that automate routine engineering work across client projects
  • Serve as a trusted advisor to clients, communicating complex technical concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders, setting realistic expectations, and building lasting relationships
  • Listen actively and empathetically to client needs, asking thoughtful questions and translating business goals into pragmatic technical roadmaps
  • Mentor and coach engineers on AI-native development practices, raising the velocity and quality of every team you work with
  • Partner with sales and leadership on pre-sales activities, including technical discovery, solution design, and estimating
  • Foster a collaborative, inclusive team culture, giving and receiving feedback constructively, navigating disagreement respectfully, and owning the problem as a team
  • Evaluate emerging AI development tools and patterns and decide which earn a place in the stack

Requirements:

  • 8+ years of professional software engineering experience, including experience leading technical teams or serving as a technical lead
  • Real-world, production experience using agentic AI coding tools (such as Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor) to accelerate software delivery, beyond autocomplete-style assistance

  • Strong expertise in at least one modern language and ecosystem (such as TypeScript/Node, Python, C#/.NET, or Java) and experience delivering on at least one major cloud platform (AWS or Azure)
  • Deep grounding in software engineering fundamentals, including architecture, automated testing, CI/CD, and code review, and the judgment to know when to trust agent output and when to inspect it closely
  • Exceptional communication skills, including the ability to explain technical trade-offs to non-technical audiences, facilitate meetings, present with confidence, and write clearly
  • Strong interpersonal skills, including empathy, active listening, patience, and professionalism under pressure
  • Adaptability and curiosity, with a demonstrated habit of learning rapidly evolving tools and helping others do the same
