TL;DR · Sr. Staff Engineer – AI Enablement & Engineering Excellence - Hybrid

As a Sr. Staff Engineer at this innovative company, you will lead the technical strategy for integrating AI into software development across a large engineering organization. Your daily responsibilities include evaluating and selecting AI tools, designing integration patterns, and building internal playbooks to embed AI in the development lifecycle. You will also establish metrics to measure AI's impact on engineering velocity and quality, ensuring responsible adoption that aligns with organizational policies. The role requires deep expertise in AI/ML tooling, LLM integration, and prompt engineering practices, along with hands-on experience with tools like GitHub Copilot and Cursor. Ideal candidates have a background in platform engineering or developer tooling, and can drive technical adoption without direct authority, influencing roadmaps at the director and VP level. This role offers the opportunity to shape how AI transforms software delivery for hundreds of engineers daily.

What you'll do

  • Own the organization-wide strategy for AI in software development lifecycle.
  • Pilot and operationalize AI tooling across the SDLC to enhance developer productivity.
  • Define adoption frameworks that ensure responsible use of AI tools.
  • Establish metrics to measure AI's impact on engineering velocity and quality.
  • Provide architectural guidance for integrating LLMs into production systems.
  • Identify and close engineering gaps that impede AI adoption at scale.
  • Influence engineering roadmaps through clear, evidence-based technical recommendations.

What we're looking for

  • 10+ years of software engineering experience with at least 3 years in AI/ML tooling and LLM integration.
  • Deep expertise in AI developer tools like GitHub Copilot, Cursor, and LLM-powered code review systems.
  • Strong understanding of LLM fundamentals including prompt engineering, context management, and evaluation frameworks.
  • Proven track record of designing and deploying AI-integrated systems at scale with cost and quality considerations.
  • Ability to drive technical adoption across large organizations without direct authority using clear communication skills.
  • Experience in defining and implementing engineering standards for AI-assisted development workflows.
