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: 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 role for a technical leader who operates across team boundaries. You'll own the hardest problems in developer productivity at CoreWeave, by setting the technical strategy for DevEx, removing systemic friction across the engineering org, and shaping the agentic developer platform that will define how engineers build software here for years to come.
What You'll Do
- Define and drive the technical strategy for the DevEx platform. Set the long-term architectural direction across CI pipeline infrastructure, test experience, delivery systems, artifact management, and agentic developer tooling, balancing engineering excellence with business priorities and org-wide scale.
- Solve the highest-complexity developer productivity problems at CoreWeave. Identify systemic bottlenecks that span teams, design solutions that operate reliably across 40+ data centers, and drive execution from architecture through production.
- Lead the agentic developer platform from a technical standpoint. Evolve the architecture of MCP servers, tool integration, and agent-accessible DevEx APIs so that autonomous workflows become a first-class primitive for every engineer at CoreWeave.
- Drive cross-team technical initiatives. Work across DevEx, infrastructure, security, SRE, and product engineering to align on platform direction, resolve deep architectural trade-offs, and establish engineering standards that raise the bar org-wide.
- Mentor and develop Senior II engineers. Actively coach ICs, elevate technical decision-making across the team, and build the engineering depth needed to sustain DevEx as CoreWeave scales.
- Proactively reduce systemic risk. Identify technical debt and reliability gaps before they become incidents, and drive durable improvements to platform resilience, efficiency, and developer trust.
