• Enhance agent capabilities by equipping them with the most intelligent tools available in our IDEs.

• Create novel AI features with no direct market analogues, experimenting with and exploring the new possibilities brought by modern AI technologies.

• Measure and evaluate the performance of agents and other AI features to achieve reliability and reproducibility.

We are looking for engineers who:

• Want to help build the best IDEs in the world and push the boundaries of developer tools.

• Have strong knowledge of Java, Kotlin, or similar languages.

• Are comfortable designing and developing complex software systems.

• Are self-driven and able to take end-to-end ownership of challenging features.

• Possess strong communication skills in English, both written and verbal.

Experience that would be especially valuable:

• Building AI-powered features, especially with LLM-based systems.

• Developing IDEs, code editors, or complex desktop applications.
