Write clear design docs, give thoughtful code reviews, and help teammates adopt agentic development practices.
A day in the life
You might start the morning reviewing overnight evaluation results and spotting a class of network failures your agent misdiagnosed. You trace the gap to a missing data source, then sit down with the principal engineer who owns that subsystem to agree on how to expose their tool to the agent. After lunch you build the integration and add new test cases, then review a teammate's pull request. Late afternoon, you join an operations review where an operator walks through a real incident your agent helped resolve, and you leave with a clear next priority.
About the team
We are an AI-native team of software engineers and applied scientists in Redmond, and we move fast. We use AI in how we build, not only in what we build, so a good idea can be a working experiment the same week and a production capability the next. We think beyond how things have been done, test our ideas against real problems, and keep only what proves itself. We ship lightning fast, and we hold a high bar for quality and production readiness while doing it.
