• Design and build reliable platform capabilities shared across webAI products
• Develop backend and systems software with a focus on performance, security, maintainability, and operational reliability
• Create clear, stable APIs and SDKs for internal and external developers
• Own features from architecture and implementation through testing, packaging, release, and production support
• Build and improve CI/CD pipelines for multi-platform builds, automated testing, artifact publishing, and releases
• Establish sound practices for API evolution, versioning, compatibility, and migration
• Write documentation, examples, and reference implementations alongside the APIs they explain
• Diagnose performance, concurrency, reliability, and integration problems across complex systems
• Collaborate with product and engineering teams to turn product needs into reusable platform capabilities
• Improve developer tooling and workflows as the platform and SDK ecosystem grow
