📋 Description

• Design, build, deploy, and support core harness components, including guides, feedback loops, guardrails, and shared context • Own and evolve feedforward guides, agent instruction files, reusable skills, architectural rules, reference documents, and codemods • Drive team-wide standardisation for agent-generated engineering output • Build feedback sensors such as custom linters, static analysis, structural and architecture-fitness tests, verification loops, and LLM-as-judge reviewers • Own quality gating and release criteria for agent-produced work • Define authority boundaries for unaided agent merges and escalation rules for human review • Establish LLM testing infrastructure and evaluation approaches for AI-generated output quality and safety • Apply consumer/contract testing where service integration reliability matters • Run the steering loop to prevent repeated agent mistakes and maintain repository knowledge as the system of record • Decide where controls run across the path to production, including pre-commit, post-integration, and continuous drift monitoring • Improve observability into agent work and track metrics such as cost per merged PR, time-to-merge, review velocity, defect escape rate, and agent-PR survival rate • Partner with product and platform teams to turn specifications and acceptance criteria into enforceable controls • Serve as technical expert and mentor engineers in harness practices and responsible AI-tool use

🎯 Requirements

• Bachelor's/Master's in Computer Science or related disciplines, or relevant commercial experience in software architecture, design, development, and testing • Seasoned software engineer with experience in large, complex codebases • Strong foundation in architecture and design • Hands-on experience with AI coding agents (e.g. Claude Code, Codex, or similar) • Experience building engineering tooling across a modern stack, including linters and static analysis, CI/CD pipelines, containerised build/test environments, and instrumentation/observability • Familiarity with agent instruction conventions such as AGENTS.md • Experience with spec-driven development, context engineering, agent orchestration, fitness functions, and developer-platform work • Ability to encode engineering standards into mechanical, repeatable rules • Understanding of deterministic computational controls versus inferential LLM-based controls and their cost, speed, and reliability trade-offs • Experience owning quality-gating processes and defining release criteria • Working knowledge of autonomous-agent security, including prompt injection, tool/permission scoping, sandboxed execution, audit trails, and least-privilege guardrails • Experience with consumer/contract testing approaches such as Pact • Excellent communication skills and ability to articulate design with architects and drive standards across teams
