Overview

GitHub is shaping the future of software development in the age of AI agents. The GitHub Cloud Agent platform provides the secure, scalable infrastructure that enables agents to autonomously perform complex software-development tasks for millions of developers and organizations. We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer to help shape the future of Agentic software development at GitHub.com and advance the next generation of AI-powered developer tools.

On this team, you’ll build intelligent, context-aware experiences that integrate directly into the workflows developers use every day. You’ll partner with engineers, product managers, and designers across GitHub to transform cutting-edge AI into reliable, high-impact capabilities at global scale.

Just as important as what we build is how we build it. We value thoughtful collaboration, strong technical craftsmanship, and a culture of ownership and continuous learning. We believe diverse perspectives make better products, and we create space for curiosity, experimentation, and healthy debate. Great software reflects the teams behind it — and we’re intentional about building a team that’s inclusive, supportive, and energized by shared purpose.

If you’re passionate about improving the daily experience of developers and building tools that truly make their lives easier, we’d love to meet you. Responsibilities: * Design, develop, test and ship high-quality technical solutions that scale across multiple GitHub services and become intimately familiar with the systems you build and take pride in writing
