AI Developer Tools Engineer

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in United Kingdom, +2 more countries.

📋 Description

• Enable Midnight to be buildable through AI coding agents by refining tooling, context, and documentation.

• Take ownership of and enhance tooling, context files, SDKs, and documentation tailored for AI coding agents.

• Design, construct, and optimize agent harnesses and orchestration workflows for tasks related to Midnight development.

• Identify and address shortcomings where agentic tooling falters, hallucinates, or generates erroneous Midnight-specific code.

• Create and sustain reference implementations, prompts, and examples.

• Assess new agentic coding tools and protocols, including MCP servers.

• Oversee the usage of Midnight by builders and agentic tools, including successes, failure modes, and workarounds.

• Compile usage and community feedback into structured insights for the core protocol roadmap.

• Communicate trends and obstacles related to developer and agent experiences to Product and Engineering teams.

• Advocate for the AI-assisted builder perspective in discussions regarding the roadmap and prioritization.

• Ensure the accuracy and reliability of Midnight Expert and other AI-enhanced developer tools.

• Keep knowledge bases, embeddings, and reference content up to date as the protocol evolves.

• Address and resolve AI developer tooling issues reported by the community.

• Establish and monitor quality metrics for AI-enabled developer tools.

⛳️ Requirements

• Hands-on experience in building, integrating, or maintaining AI coding assistants or agentic development tooling (e.g., Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, MCP servers, RAG-based coding assistants).

• Practical understanding of how AI coding agents utilize context—prompting, retrieval, tool usage—and what contributes to their success or failures within a specific codebase or protocol.

• Familiarity with smart contract or protocol-level development (Cardano/partner-chain, ZK-based systems, or similar) is highly advantageous, although not essential at this level.

• Experience in transforming qualitative user or usage feedback into structured product or roadmap input.

• Strong technical writing abilities.

• Ability to work asynchronously and independently across a broad range of working hours (UTC-5 to UTC+5).

• Bonus: experience building an application on Midnight or another privacy network.

🏝️ Benefits

• Engaging work environment with opportunities for growth and development.

• Flexibility in working hours to accommodate various schedules.

• Chance to contribute to cutting-edge technology in the AI and developer tooling space.
