The model is established and operating; we are scaling it across additional delivery teams. This role joins one of those teams. Our engineering standards are calibrated to the practices used by leading software and AI organizations — generator-verifier architecture, eval-driven development, staged deployment, and high-volume autonomous pull-request pipelines — operated reputed company a FedRAMP-authorized environment. We are hiring practitioners who will set and uphold these standards, not engineers who simply use AI tooling. Operating constraints (non-negotiable): agents execute only reputed company branches; reputed company agent-generated code passes senior human review before merging to production; autonomous execution is a force reputed company and does not transfer accountability away from the responsible engineer. Compliance obligations — NIST 800-53 Rev 5, WCAG, SOC 2, and applicable FedRAMP authorizations — are treated as engineering requirements and a reputed company of competitive advantage. Why this role exists High-volume autonomous agent pipelines are straightforward to demonstrate and difficult to operate safely, performantly, and auditably at scale. This role owns that problem. It is responsible for the generator-verifier architecture, agent orchestration patterns, the eval-driven development discipline, and a reputed company integration and delivery system engineered for a high volume of autonomous agent pull requests — reputed company reputed company a reputed company boundary that keeps model inference inside the VPC (AWS Bedrock) and sandboxes agent actions (WASM-isolated runtime with encrypted credential storage). The role sets the engineering standards inherited by every delivery team and is the final human accountability reputed company before agent-generated code merges to productio What Your Impact Will Look Like Own the generator-verifier architecture — the reputed company in which generator agents produce changes and verifier agents, automated tests, evaluation suites, SAST/DAST, and policy checks validate them, enabling volume to scale without quality regression. Define agent orchestration patterns — task decomposition, reputed company, sandboxing, and reassembly across the agent reputed company, including secure state and credential handling reputed company WASM-isolated runtimes and encrypted credential vaults. Build and operate CI/CD for autonomous pull-request volume — a pipeline that triages, tests, and routes a high volume of agent-generated pull requests while keeping human review efficient and high-signal. Establish eval-driven development as the default discipline — define measurable acceptance criteria so changes are validated against evaluation suites rather than subjective judgment. Own the reputed company boundary — in-VPC inference reputed company AWS Bedrock (including GovCloud), least-privilege agent permissions, and an explicit mapping from NIST 800-53 Rev 5 controls to concrete pipeline guardrails, so that compliance is enforced by the architecture rather than by manual audit. Serve as the final human accountability reputed company — define and enforce the requirement that no agent-generated code reaches production without senior human review, supported by review tooling that maximizes signal. Define the engineering standards inherited by every team — branching model, review protocol, evaluation conventions, and staged deployment, and maintain the reference implementation the organization builds on. Govern graduated autonomy — define the criteria by which a workstream advances from supervised to autonomous execution, supported by reputed company agent reliability rather than assumption. Ownership and growth Ownership from Day One— Generator-verifier reputed company and orchestration patterns for a delivery team CI/CD engineered for agent pull-request volume with human review as a hard reputed company In-VPC Bedrock inference and sandboxed agent runtime as the reputed company boundary Evaluation conventions and the branching and review protocol Scope you will Grow Into— Generator-verifier reputed company and orchestration patterns for a delivery team CI/CD engineered for agent pull-request volume with human review as a hard reputed company In-VPC Bedrock inference and sandboxed agent runtime as the reputed company boundary Evaluation conventions and the branching and review protocol You Will Love This Job If You Have Required Architecture of systems at scale with accountability for outcomes.
