The Role:

We’re looking for a Staff Engineer to join the Core Developer Experience (Core DX) team and help make AlphaSense an exceptional environment for building software. In this role, you’ll focus on enabling engineers to work at high velocity, with confidence and flow, by reducing friction and improving the speed and quality of feedback in local development. You’ll design and evolve the tools, environments, and workflows that support fast, reliable iteration for ~400 engineers globally.

Core DX owns the inner loop of development, the day-to-day experience of writing, building, and testing code, along with the internal developer platform, self-service tooling, and developer productivity insights that support it. This is distinct from Cloud Platform DX (outer loop), which owns CI/CD and production infrastructure. You’ll work closely with Cloud DX to ensure a seamless SDLC experience from local development to production, while staying focused on the developer-facing side of that journey.

A key part of this role is embedding AI into the SDLC in a way that meaningfully augments engineers’ day-to-day workflows, from code authoring to debugging and testing, while ensuring consistent quality and safe adoption at scale.

Responsibilities:

• Improve the inner development loop (local dev, build, test) for fast, reliable feedback
• Integrate and advance AI across the SDLC (coding, testing, documentation, workflows)
• Improve developer experience around CI/CD collaboration with CloudDX
• Identify and eliminate friction across the developer journey
• Build and evolve self-service tooling and internal platforms (DX/IDP)
• Establish and improve developer productivity metrics and engineering insights (e.g., DORA, DX)
• Enable engineering scalability thr
