About the Role
We’re looking for a Software Engineer II with AI development tool experience to help change how software is built by moving the organization to an AI-first development model. This role focuses on designing AI-powered development workflows and agents that actively participate in engineering work—things like generating and validating tests, assisting with code reviews, and improving CI feedback. At the same time, you’ll tackle real, long-standing friction like slow local environments and long test cycles. This is a hands-on engineering role with broad impact. You’ll work across teams, partnering directly with engineers to understand how they work today and to roll out changes that stick.
Who you are
- You are a software engineer first—you like writing code and making systems better
- You actively use AI tools in your daily development work and look for ways to push them further
- You keep up with new AI capabilities and enjoy figuring out which ones are worth adopting
- You care about how other engineers work and want to make their jobs easier
- You’re comfortable working across teams and incorporating feedback, even when it’s conflicting
- You’re opinionated but practical—you optimize for real improvement, not theoretical perfection
- You’re willing to challenge existing workflows when they’re slowing people down
What you get to every day
- Stay current on AI tooling and techniques and introduce changes that meaningfully improve productivity
- Collaborate with engineers across teams to shape and adopt AI-assisted workflows
- Design and build AI agents and skills used in the development process (e.g., test generation, code review assistance, CI feedback)
- Improve and modularize local development environments
- Reduce CI pain by speeding up tests and improving signal quality
- Build internal tools that remove friction from everyday development
- Drive adoption through collaboration and usefulness, not mandates
What you bring to the role
- Strong software engineering fundamentals and hands-on coding experience
- Experience building systems or tools other engineers rely on
- Experience with Docker, local dev environments, and CI systems
- Familiarity with automated testing and test performance issues
- Proficiency in at least one general-purpose language (Python or JavaScript/TypeScript) required
- AWS and Postgres experience
- The ability and desire to work in a fast-paced challenging environment
- Outstanding communication skills and ability to effectively work cross-functionally in a fast-paced challenging environment
- English proficiency (written and oral) is required
- This position is based in Mexico. Must reside in Mexico and have permanent residency. AlertMedia does not sponsor
Nice to Have
- Experience designing or integrating AI agents or LLM-based tools
