ABOUT BASETEN Baseten powers mission-critical inference for the world's most dynamic AI companies, like Cursor, Notion, OpenEvidence, Abridge, Clay, Gamma and Writer. By uniting applied AI research, flexible infrastructure, and seamless developer tooling, we enable companies operating at the frontier of AI to bring cutting-edge models into production. We're growing quickly and recently raised our $1.5B Series F , led by Altimeter Capital, Conviction Partners, and Spark Capital. Join us and help build the platform engineers turn to to ship AI products. THE ROLE Baseten's engineers want to work in an AI-first way. What's missing isn't enthusiasm — it's the platform underneath it. Today everyone assembles their own agent config, context files, and MCP servers, so the good patterns stay trapped in individual setups instead of becoming defaults everyone inherits. You'll build that platform: the agent configurations tuned to our monorepo, the context and tooling layer that makes agents competent in our codebase, the evals that tell us which approaches actually work, and the rollout mechanics that get a new engineer productive with agents in week one. You are not here to mandate how engineers use AI — you're here to make the good path the easy path. Success looks like teams adopting what you build because it beats what they'd cobble together themselves, not because a policy requires it. Platform engineer, not AI evangelist. Ship infrastructure, measure it, kill what doesn't work, let adoption be the referee. The playbook for AI-first SDLC doesn't exist at any company yet. You'll write ours. WHAT YOU'LL BUILD Agent substrate — Repo-level context infrastructure that makes agents competent in our codebase ( CLAUDE.md/AGENTS.md conventions, architecture and domain context, and the tooling to keep it accurate as code moves). Internal MCP servers giving agents scoped access to CI, observability, incident tooling, deployment state, and docs. Shared skills, subagents, and hooks th

P.S: We highly recommend reading The "API-First World" graphic novel to understand the bigger picture and our vision at Postman. About the Role We’re looking for a Senior Developer Advocate to join our Developer Relations team and help developers everywhere build better APIs, faster. You’ll serve as a trusted technical voice for Postman by creating compelling content, building community, and championing developer needs back into the product. This is a high-visibility, high-impact role. You won’t just talk about Postman, you’ll be hands-on with APIs, AI agents, and emerging protocols like MCP , translating complex workflows into accessible, inspiring content that reaches millions of developers. What You’ll Do Create technical content at scale: Write tutorials, blog posts, videos, sample projects, and livestreams that demonstrate API best practices using Postman and adjacent tools.

About Sentry Software runs the world and the pace is faster than ever. Sentry helps developers fix errors and performance issues before users notice, so teams can spend less time firefighting and more time building. Trusted by 200,000+ organizations, Sentry is today’s application monitoring standard and our team is building its AI-native future. About the role Sentry provides tools that help developers find and fix issues in their applications. The Developer Infrastructure team owns the systems that make every engineer at Sentry more effective at shipping high quality software: developer environments, CI/CD for our open source and closed source codebases, the golden path for building new services, our SDK and library publishing tooling, and the metrics and dashboards that keep it all healthy. Our goal is straightforward: developers should spend their time thinking about the software they build for customers, not the software they use to build it. That means everything from local and cloud development environments, to the CI/CD pipeline that gets code out safely and quickly, to the tooling that catches flaky tests before they cost someone a day. As AI coding agents become part of how engineers work, we're also investing in making sure our environments, CI, and deployment systems support that shift. As a Software Engineer on Dev Infra, you'll help build and scale this infrastructure end to end. In this role, you will Build and maintain the tooling that powers local and cloud-based developer environments Improve CI for our codebases and CD for our deployment pipeline, keeping both fast and reliable as the org and its infrastructure grow Define and evolve the golden path for building new services and libraries at Sentry Contribute to our SDK and library publishing tooling and release processes Build the metrics, dashboards, and flaky test detection that give the org visibility into deployment health and CI reliability Build tooling that gives engineers, and the AI codin
About the Team The Applied AI team safely brings OpenAI's technology to the world. We released ChatGPT, Plugins, DALL·E, and the APIs for GPT-4, GPT-3, embeddings, and fine-tuning.
