AI-First Engineering - What This Means Here
Were building teams at the forefront of agentic coding. This isnt about using Copilot to autocomplete boilerplate. We mean engineers who:
- Design workflows where AI agents handle entire task loops from spec to PR.
- Think in terms of orchestration: what does a human review what does the agent own
- Build internal tooling and abstractions that make AI-assisted development faster and more reliable for the whole team.
- Stay curious and ahead of the curve - trying new models agents and tools as they emerge and forming strong opinions about whats genuinely useful vs. hype.
If you find yourself naturally asking can an agent do this before reaching for the keyboard youll fit right in.
