Job Description
Engineer building infrastructure for fast, autonomous feature development teams at Workweek. Focusing on safety in development processes and automating documentation, testing, and observability.
Responsibilities:
- Own the AI context layer — write and maintain CLAUDE.md and skill files with the same rigor you'd apply to a CI/CD pipeline. These are the primary guardrail for non-engineers using Claude Code.
- Own the CI/CD layer — feature flag enforcement, automated PR review, Playwright smoke tests, Cloudwatch alerts.
- Enforce frontend standards automatically — not through checklists, but through gates that reject non-compliant code before it merges.
- Keep observability tight — automated alerting on platform changes and key experiment metrics, so regressions surface before anyone notices.
- Contribute to dead code removal on both frontend and backend, reducing the risk surface and giving Claude a cleaner codebase to reason about.
- Automate documentation so it stays in sync with the codebase — Claude should never be working off stale context.
- Help close out the ongoing Rails to AWS migration, a dependency for the broader platform guardrails work.
- Contribute to the shared infrastructure that makes the whole team faster, not just your own work.
Requirements:
- 4 or more years of experience in platform, DevEx, or infrastructure engineering, with strong CI/CD depth — GitHub Actions, automated testing pipelines, enforcement gates
- Enough frontend range to write meaningful automated PR review rules, enforce component standards, and understand what a missing feature flag actually means in practice
- AWS and observability fluency — Cloudwatch, alerting, and a working model of what platform changes can break and how to detect it fast
- Experience working in a lean, fast-moving codebase — you know how to add guardrails without adding drag, and you default to automation over process
- Claude Code or Cursor experience — you've used AI-assisted coding in a real codebase and understand how context quality affects output quality. Writing CLAUDE.md is not a novelty to you.
- High agency. You identify the risk surface and close it without waiting to be asked.
- Bonus: You've written skill files or system prompts that encode domain-specific rules, worked on a Rails codebase through an AWS migration, or built tools that let non-engineers ship safely without needing to ask an engineer every time.
Benefits:
- Competitive pay (we don't pay based on location, we assign value to the role)
- Equity in Workweek
- Remote operations with the ability to work in the time zone of your choice (or work IRL in our Austin, TX office)
- Unlimited PTO with a minimum of 3 days/quarter used
- 100% health insurance coverage, 75% coverage for dependents, and $150/month towards an HSA (or $150/month health stipend if insurance not used)
- 120 days of parental leave to use within one year of childbirth (available 12 months after your start date and only available every 365 days)
- 401(k) plan with 3.5% company match
- $500 one-time stipend for any home office needs used after the first 90 days
- 5-week sabbatical after 4 years on staff
- 2 volunteering days per year
- 1x/year in-person team retreat
- $100/month book stipend
