About the role
- Use and continuously improve our existing agentic orchestration to build and iterate on features end to end.
- Plan the work, direct the agents, review the output, and improve the process
- Learn our codebase and domain, and help tighten and refine the platform as it exists today
- Take new product ideas and feature requests from concept to implementation plan to deployable code — creating specs through voice-first, AI-assisted workflows, not traditional writing
- Implement and manage product observability: track user behavior, click paths, time-on-task, drop-off points
- Use AI tools to dogfood the app — surface areas where things look difficult, take too long, or require too many steps, and suggest improvements
- Improve AI's ability to test the platform for usability and troubleshoot technical issues
- Work with our personas and user research to ensure features serve the people who actually use the product — attorneys, CASA volunteers, caregivers, families
Requirements
- Strong engineering background — you need to be able to truly evaluate AI-generated code quality, not just the UI it produces
- Strong understanding of UX/UI principles and what makes software intuitive
- Ability to take a product idea from concept to implementation plan
- Experience creating acceptance tests or user-story-driven test cases
- The technical depth to evaluate AI-generated output at the code level — you need to know if it's good code, not just good-looking output
- Experience with modern Rails frontend technologies (Hotwire, Turbo, Stimulus)
- Product-minded — you think about who's using this and why, not just what it does
- Strong communicator — you can produce feature descriptions, help docs, and specs that actually communicate, using voice-first and AI-assisted workflows
- Self-directed — you see what needs improving and go improve it
- Excited about pushing the boundaries of AI-assisted development
Benefits
- Professional development opportunities
