Company Overview:

About Us:
Atlanta-based Incident IQ is the leading workflow management platform built exclusively for K-12 districts. Trusted by over 2,000 districts, Incident IQ powers mission-critical services for more than 12 million students and educators nationwide. By connecting technology and operational workflows, Incident IQ enables schools to streamline processes, reduce administrative burdens, and focus on what matters most: supporting students.

Purpose:
Incident IQ is committed to creating a future where every K-12 district operates with seamless efficiency. When operations are unified on a single platform, districts gain the clarity and control needed to build a stronger foundation for student success. We're focused on delivering the tools, support, and partnerships that help make that vision a reality.

Mission:
Incident IQ is on a mission to eliminate the friction of disconnected systems and clunky workflows that slow schools down. We're reimagining the critical work that happens behind the scenes, bringing visibility, efficiency, and impact to the processes that keep classrooms running. By streamlining the complex, automating the routine, and surfacing the insights that matter most, we can create the conditions for educators to teach, students to thrive, and districts to shape the future of education.

AI DevEx Engineer Overview:

We are looking for a pragmatic and forward-thinking AI DevEx Engineer to join our AI Tooling team. In this role, you will be instrumental in building the skills, plugins, commands, and internal tools that empower our engineering team and cross-functional departments to work smarter and faster.

Initially, your primary focus will be expanding our custom plugins and agentic skills for Claude Code, which is heavily utilized by our engineering teams. As we grow, you will scale these efforts into multiple targeted plugins across different engineering disciplines. We need someone who is relentlessly focused on solving real business problems through Full Stack Agentic Development (FSAD). You will architect practical AI solutions, shape the "brain" of our agents, pioneer how we test AI outputs, and clearly articulate your decision-making process to the team. We are building complex, non-deterministic systems, which means this role requires deep resilience, patience, and a persistent focus on long-term goals despite inevitable setbacks.

AI DevEx Engineer Responsibilities:

• Claude Code Tooling: Design and build out robust skills, tools, and agents for our internal Claude Code plugins, eventually scaling this architecture to support multiple distinct engineering workflows.
• Agent Intelligence (The "Brain"): Manage, structure, and expand our internal reference library. You will be responsible for ensuring our agents have the right context and documentation to make highly accurate, business-aligned decisions.
• Monitoring & Troubleshooting: Actively review agent runs, interactions, and logs generated by the engineering teams. You will identify failure points, debug complex agentic loops, and deploy fixes to improve reliability.
• Pioneer FSAD Testing: Design and implement a comprehensive testing suite from the ground up tailored for Full Stack Agentic Development. You will establish robust methodologies to effectively test, evaluate, and benchmark non-deterministic AI results.
• Architectural Leadership: Make sound architectural decisions across the stack (primarily utilizing .NET and React) to ensure scalability, security, and performance of our AI infrastructure.
• Process Transparency: Clearly document and explain your code, architectural choices, and the step-by-step process used to achieve your solutions to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Mentorship & Advocacy: Actively mentor and teach engineering teams, creating comprehensive documentation and maintaining an open, feedback-receptive mindset toward the tools you build.
• Empathetic Development: Approach development with deep empathy for existing workflows, ensuring that new solutions enhance our current processes rather than disrupting them for the sake of 'the latest' tech.

AI DevEx Engineer Requirements:

• Technical AI Proficiency: Strong command of LLM/Agentic orchestration, including MCP integrations, AI debugging/evaluation methodologies, and core CS fundamentals. A focus on data security and privacy is critical.
• Collaboration & Communication: Exceptional ability to listen, translate complex technical jargon into actionable insights for non-technical stakeholders, and advocate for user-centric solutions.
• Cultural Fit & Pragmatism: A pragmatic approach to problem-solving that favors simple, scalable solutions over over-engineering. We value autonomy, adaptability to rapidly shifting AI landscapes, and a positive alignment to advancing our AI strategy.
• Development: Strong general understanding of coding and architectural understanding, with highly preferred experience in .NET (backend) and React (frontend).

What Success Looks Like:

Your customers include the engineers, Product Owners, and Designers who rely on your tools. Success means broad adoption of your solutions and measurable improvements in their daily workflows. You will be a champion of the FSAD process, delivering solutions that align with company goals while navigating feedback to solve immediate issues without losing sight of our long-term vision. You will act as an AI Ambassador at IIQ—not only creating new frameworks but actively teaching others and serving as a key resource for those growing their AI proficiency.

Bonus Points:

• Experience with Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines, vector databases, or knowledge graphing.
• Experience building internal Developer Experience (DevEx) tools.
• Familiarity with AI evaluation (Evals) frameworks for scoring agent performance.

What makes Incident IQ different:

• We facilitate whole-person growth where employees can develop personally as well as professionally.
• We offer an energetic and collaborative environment; everyone's opinion matters!
• We produce software that empowers K-12 schools to run efficiently, allowing for a better classroom experience for students to THRIVE!
• We provide excellent work/life balance. Two amazing offices - a Downtown Atlanta office location and one at Halcyon in Alpharetta!

Incident IQ offers a competitive salary based on experience with a benefits package for full-time employees that includes medical, dental, vision, life insurance, 401k match, and paid-time off (PTO).
