Set the long-term architectural direction across CI pipeline infrastructure, test experience, delivery systems, artifact management, and agentic developer tooling, balancing engineering excellence with business priorities and org-wide scale.
- - Solve the highest-complexity developer productivity problems at CoreWeave. Identify systemic bottlenecks that span teams, design solutions that operate reliably across 40+ data centers, and drive execution from architecture through production.
- - Lead the agentic developer platform from a technical standpoint. Evolve the architecture of MCP servers, tool integration, and agent-accessible DevEx APIs so that autonomous workflows become a first-class primitive for every engineer at CoreWeave.
- - Drive cross-team technical initiatives. Work across DevEx, infrastructure, security, SRE, and product engineering to align on platform direction, resolve deep architectural trade-offs, and establish engineering standards that raise the bar org-wide.
- - Mentor and develop Senior II engineers. Actively coach ICs, elevate technical decision-making across the team, and build the engineering depth needed to sustain DevEx as CoreWeave scales.
- - Proactively reduce systemic risk. Identify technical debt and reliability gaps before they become incidents, and drive durable improvements to platform resilience, efficiency, and developer trust.

- Proficiency in Go, Python, or similar languages with a track record of shipping large-scale production services in cloud-native environments.
- Expertise in Kubernetes and IaaC (Infrastructure as Code) at the platform design level. You understand the scheduler, the API machinery, and the extension points.
