About the Team
CoreWeave is The Essential Cloud for AI™ — the infrastructure that the world's leading AI labs, researchers, and enterprises depend on. The Developer Experience (DevEx) team owns the platform, services, and systems that enable every engineer at CoreWeave to build and ship software faster, more safely, and with greater confidence. Our scope spans the full developer lifecycle: onboarding, developer environments, CLIs, SDKs, CI (continuous integration) and build infrastructure, test experience, delivery systems, artifact storage and distribution, internal developer platforms, and the agentic AI tooling that is redefining how engineers move from idea to production.
This is a high-leverage technical leadership role. You won't be operating tooling — you'll be designing and building the platforms other engineers depend on every day. The work you do will directly shape developer velocity, system reliability, and the agentic developer experience across a rapidly scaling engineering organization.
What You'll Do
• Set technical direction for key DevEx platform subsystems. Drive architectural decisions across SDKs, CLIs, inner development loop, CI pipeline infrastructure, test experience, artifact management, developer environments, and agentic tooling. Lead multi-quarter initiatives from design through production.
• Design and build the core services that power developer productivity. Build pipeline services, test experience platforms, progressive rollout systems, artifact registries, ephemeral development environments, and the APIs that tie them together.
• Architect and evolve our agentic developer platform. Elevate agentic DevEx capabilities so engineers can delegate development tasks and move faster in an AI-native way.
• Build for real scale. DevEx systems must reliably serve thousands of application instances and engineering workflows across 40+ data centers with diverse infrastructure profiles.
• Mentor other senior and mid-level engineers, own design reviews, establish engineering patterns, and consistently raise the quality bar across the team.
• Partner closely with infrastructure, security, and product engineering teams to design and implement developer experience foundations that are fast, safe, and compliant at scale.
• Lead post-mortems and drive continuous improvement cycles that harden DevEx systems against failure modes and reduce operational burden for engineering teams.
• Set the standard for documentation and onboarding across the platform, so engineering teams at CoreWeave can discover, adopt, and self-serve the tools your team builds.
What We're Looking For
• 6+ years of software engineering experience with building production platforms, developer tooling, delivery infrastructure, or distributed storage systems.
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field.
• Strong systems design skills. You think in distributed services, event-driven architectures, and APIs. You approach developer platform problems as software engineering problems, not configuration exercises.
• Proficiency in Go, Python, or similar languages with production experience shipping services in cloud-native environments.
• Deep experience with Kubernetes. You understand how workloads are packaged, scheduled, and managed at the cluster level, and can design platform services that integrate at that layer.
• Experience with or strong technical interest in LLM-integrated developer tooling, such as agent frameworks, MCP-style tools, or AI-assisted developer workflows.
• Proven track record of setting technical direction, making sound architectural trade-offs, and driving engineering decisions that hold up as systems and teams scale.
• Effective cross-functional collaborator. You can align stakeholders, influence without authority, and translate complex technical trade-offs for technical and non-technical audiences alike.
• Experience mentoring engineers and consistently raising the technical quality bar of the teams you work on.
Nice to Have
• Experience designing platform APIs, SDKs, or developer tools that were adopted broadly across an engineering organization.
• Experience building or extending CI and Build infrastructure at scale, including GitHub Actions, Buildkite, Bazel, or similar build systems.
• Experience designing and operating progressive delivery systems at scale, including SLO-based quality gates, automated multi-stage pipeline orchestration, and custom Kubernetes operators, across heterogeneous deployment environments.
• Hands-on experience with artifact management, including distributed storage, caching, versioning, or multi-region artifact distribution (e.g. JFrog Artifactory, Cloudsmith, or custom-built systems).
• Direct experience building agentic systems, including MCP servers, tool-augmented LLM workflows, and incorporating these capabilities into DevEx platform features with consistent value-add.
The base salary range for this role is $165,000 to $242,000. The starting salary will be determined based on job-related knowledge, skills, experience, and market location. We strive for both market alignment and internal equity when determining compensation. In addition to base salary, our total rewards package includes a discretionary bonus, equity awards, and a comprehensive benefits program (all based on eligibility).
