TL;DR · Intermediate Backend Engineer, Platform Readiness

Intermediate Backend Engineer, Platform Readiness will join the Developer Experience team to build internal developer tooling that ensures features ship successfully across four distinct deployment platforms. You will develop and maintain agentic workflow components on the Duo Agent Platform, evolve a platform requirements knowledge base, and create integration surfaces for feature teams within issues, merge requests, and CI/CD pipelines. The role focuses on solving late-stage compatibility issues by embedding readiness intelligence into the software development lifecycle. Required skills include proficiency in TypeScript/Node, Python, or Golang; experience with Kubernetes; and comfort working with YAML or JSON Schema. You should also have exposure to LLM APIs, prompts, or agentic frameworks. The role involves collaborating with infrastructure, security, and data teams to translate technical expertise into structured requirements while utilizing AI as a core productivity multiplier.

What you'll do

  • Build and maintain agentic workflow components on the Duo Agent Platform.
  • Write tests, documentation, and evaluations to validate agentic-workflow behavior.
  • Contribute to and evolve the platform requirements knowledge base and schema.
  • Develop validation tooling for structured requirement data.
  • Build integration surfaces in issues, merge requests, and CI/CD pipelines for feature teams.
  • Translate technical expertise from infrastructure, security, and data teams into readiness artifacts.

What we're looking for

  • Experience in software engineering with a backend focus.
  • Proficiency in TypeScript/Node, Python, or Golang.
  • Comfort reading and contributing to schemas such as YAML and JSON Schema.
  • Operational exposure to Kubernetes and reasoning about failure modes.
  • Ability to work asynchronously and communicate clearly in written form.
  • Experience with LLM APIs, prompts, or agentic frameworks.
  • Ruby familiarity (preferred).
  • Experience with GitLab-style development workflows, open source contributions, or interest in developer experience (preferred).
