About Zencoder At Zencoder.ai , we build and orchestrate AI agents that ship real work - code, research, operations, and more. What started as developer tooling is becoming a platform where people and agents collaborate across knowledge work tasks. The Opportunity We're looking for an experienced engineer to raise the bar on how our organization builds, tests, ships, and operates software - for both human engineers and AI coding agents. This is AI harness engineering: the discipline of making the fundamentals (CI/CD, testing, IaC, observability, secure delivery) so solid and well-shaped that agents can work productively inside them. Developer experience and platform engineering are a subset of that work. When the harness is good, humans ship faster and agents stop getting stuck on things that shouldn't be hard. Security is inseparable from this. AI agents are accelerating both the pace and the shape of vulnerabilities, and secure delivery has to be built into the same stream as everything else - not bolted on. Product teams own their services, pipelines, and tests. Your job is to raise the ceiling across the org - defining standards, building leverage, and helping teams level up their workflows, tooling, infrastructure, security posture, and necessary changes to get the most out of coding agents. Key Responsibilities This is a hands-on lead role - you'll be deep in the code, infra, and pipelines yourself. • Shape the platform and infrastructure that everything else runs on - the foundations product teams build on top of; • Improve the full developer loop: local development, remote agents, CI/CD, deployment, observability; • Build shared tooling, templates, and golden paths that create real leverage - paved roads teams actually want to use; • Stay ahead of the shifting security landscape as AI agents reshape both how vulnerabilities emerge and how they're exploited. Essential Qualifications • Strong software engineering background - you will be building both tooling and managing core infrastructure in this role; • Real fluency with AI coding agents - how they work, where they fail, and what makes them effective; • A product mindset toward internal tooling - treating engineers and agents as users, and measuring whether the platform actually makes them faster; • Deep experience with CI/CD, automated testing, IaC, Cloud and developer tooling; • A passion for software security and secure delivery practices (shift-left / SecDevOps etc) in both the classical context and the new AI agent context. Why Join Zencoder? • Impact AI is reshaping how work gets done, and you'll be at the forefront of that shift, building a product that enables teams to get more done with AI. We use our own products every day, so you'll see how your work lands right away. • AI-First We use AI to expand what one person can accomplish. You'll constantly rethink how you work: what to hand over to AI, and where your own judgment matters most. • Ownership We keep the team small and give people real scope, autonomy, and equity. You'll take initiative, make decisions, and see your work through to real outcomes, raising the bar with every iteration. • High Talent Density A small team of highly capable people moves faster and builds better. You'll work directly with senior teammates and our founder, Andrew Filev, in a flat structure where ideas win on merit, not titles. • Remote-First We hire globally, prioritizing talent over location, so you can work where you're most productive. Prefer in-person? We have a hub in Barcelona with weekly co-working. Zencoder is an equal-opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.

About Zencoder At Zencoder.ai , we build and orchestrate AI agents that ship real work - code, research, operations, and more. What started as developer tooling is becoming a platform where people and agents collaborate across knowledge work tasks. The Opportunity We’re looking for a passionate Senior Software Engineer to collaborate on building the next-generation AI coding platform. This is a rare opportunity to join an early-stage company founded by Andrew Filev (founder of a unicorn startup) — to help scale it into a thriving, world-changing business. Together, we’re shaping the future of software development — closing the gap between idea and reality, and influencing not only how code is written, but how progress happens across every field that depends on software. Key Responsibilities You’ll take ownership of designing and building key features. Our stack currently consists of TypeScript and Kotlin and you may be expected to work across all of them. This is not a “just code what’s assigned” role — we’re looking for people with a product mindset, who think deeply about users, bring ideas for product growth, and aren’t afraid to propose and launch new things. We value people who make things happen through their own enthusiasm, rather than waiting for managers to tell them what to do. Here, individual contributors hold the highest status — they are the driving force behind the company’s progress. You’ll work alongside top professionals in an environment that celebrates curiosity, creativity, and results. Essential Qualifications • 10+ years of experience building complex, production-grade applications, including deep expertise in backend development in Java / Kotlin / TypeScript. • Strong computer science foundation combined with a deep understanding of modern software architecture and design principles — and a proven record of applying them effectively in real-world, user-facing products. • Product mindset — you think beyond code, care about the “why” behind the feature, and proactively contribute ideas that make the product better for users. • Strong sense of ownership — you take initiative, drive projects from concept to launch, and thrive when given autonomy and accountability for outcomes. • Deep familiarity with AI assistants, a solid grasp of the evolving AI landscape, and the ability to translate trends and capabilities into practical product improvements. • Proven ability to collaborate effectively within a fast-moving, cross-functional team — communicating clearly, sharing context, and supporting others to achieve shared goals. • Passion for continuous learning, experimentation, and innovation — you stay curious, adapt quickly, and always look for ways to push the boundaries of what’s possible. • Comfort working in dynamic, fast-changing environments — ideally with prior experience in start-ups or early-stage teams where clarity must often be created, not awaited. • Experience or a strong interest in building collaborative, real-time systems is beneficial. Why Join Zencoder? • Shape the Future of Software Creation: We’re not just improving how developers write code — we’re redefining how ideas turn into reality. By closing the gap between concept and execution, we’re creating tools that will influence every industry that relies on software. • Massive Impact, Real Ownership: At Zencoder, you’ll have full visibility into how your work moves the product and the company forward.
