Software Engineer, Bugbot

About This RoleAI processing…

Key Responsibilities

• 1
  Launch new Bugbot features end-to-end from defining the feature and building the UI to wiring up the backend and iterating on model behavior so that each release meaningfully improves code review quality. You can check out Bugbot blog post for some examples of how Bugbot was improved in the past: https://cursor.com/blog/building-bugbot .
• 2
  Evolve the review pipeline adapting prompting strategies, model routing, context selection, and agent orchestration to take advantage of new capabilities while managing cost and latency.
• 3
  Build integrations that embed Bugbot into every engineer's workflow making AI-assisted review a seamless, default part of the development loop.
• 4
  Own product quality and reliability monitor precision and recall, triage false positives, improve observability across the review pipeline, and ensure Bugbot earns trust with every review it posts.
• 5
  Design onboarding and adoption flows that help teams go from first install to daily active usage.
• 6
  Partner with ML, infrastructure, and product teams to inform model improvements with real-world review data, shape the Bugbot roadmap, and scale the system as adoption grows.
• 7
  You will own Bugbot's product surface end-to-end: features, integrations, review pipeline, onboarding, configuration, and the user experience of AI code review.
• 8
  You will not own foundation model training or core infrastructure services — but you will be a key consumer and collaborator, driving requirements based on what Bugbot needs.
• 9
  You will not be a backend-only engineer or an ML researcher who doesn't ship product. This role requires you to move fluidly between the model layer and the product layer.
• 10
  Quality is the product. A code review assistant that posts noisy or unhelpful comments is worse than no assistant at all. You'll be obsessive about making Bugbot's output genuinely useful. You obsess about your evals.
