Set the team’s AI-native operating model, including agent use, review standards, delegation boundaries, and maintenance of shared context and evaluation assets. Stay hands-on by directing AI agents on real repository work and calibrating what good agent-assisted engineering looks like. Own quality outcomes by defining automated gates for tests, evaluations, security scanning, dependency policy, and release readiness.

Run agile execution with strong judgement around AI-produced estimates, scoping, planning artifacts, and delivery commitments. Represent the Austin technical position in cross-site decisions and keep the team aligned with EMEA counterparts across time zones. Grow the team by interviewing for AI-native judgement, onboarding quickly, and maintaining a high hiring bar while scaling the hub. Requirements 8+ years of software engineering experience, including hands-on expertise in at least one relevant technology stack and a proven track record of leadership or technical mentoring within agile environments. Practical experience using AI coding agents in production software development, with the ability to articulate what was delegated, what required review, what failed, and how issues were identified and resolved. Proven ability to define and implement quality and security gates for code contributions, including automated testing, evaluations, static analysis, security scanning, and dependency management. A critical approach to reviewing agent-generated output, with accountability for correctness, security, maintainability, and overall software quality. Strong understanding of clean code principles, modern software architecture, distributed systems, and the security and networking considerations relevant to TeamViewer products. Working knowledge of agentic development environments, custom tools, MCP or comparable tool protocols, repository-level instructions, and sub-agent architectures. Deep understanding of common AI failure modes, including hallucinations, context degradation, prompt injection, non-determinism, and silent regressions, along with effective mitigation strategies.
