The opportunity

WRITER is where the world's leading enterprises orchestrate AI-powered work. Our vision is to expand human capacity through superintelligence.

What you'll do

  • Design and deliver secure, scalable AI integration platforms that connect: enterprise systems and power mission-critical automation.

  • Contribute to the design and evolution of our AI integration client: ecosystem, defining how AI applications securely connect to external tools, data sources, and enterprise systems.

  • Own backend service design for high-throughput, low-latency APIs that enable: reliable agent workflows and complex cross-system orchestration.

  • Set technical direction for identity, auth, and trust boundaries across: integrations (OAuth, API key, service-to-service), balancing developer velocity with security and compliance.

  • Partner with product and cross-functional engineering leaders to shape: roadmap, define technical strategy, and translate ambiguous business goals into durable platform capabilities.

  • Lead production excellence through a metrics-first reliability strategy,: defining and enforcing SLOs/SLAs, maturing observability, and driving resilience, incident readiness, and performance optimization at scale.

What they're looking for

  • Raise the engineering bar through architecture reviews, pragmatic design: standards, rigorous testing strategy, and mentorship of senior and mid-level engineers.
  • + years of software engineering experience building and operating production: backend systems using Typescript, Deno, Node.js, or Bun; scope and leveling can flex across Senior to Staff based on architectural impact and leadership.
  • Strong experience designing and shipping API-driven platform services and: distributed systems, including microservices, event-driven patterns, and secure service-to-service communication.
  • Practical expertise building AI integration layers (e.g., MCP: clients/servers, tool orchestration, external API connectors, auth mediation), not just prompt or model experimentation.
