Job Description

Job Description

Description :

Tivly helps more than a million small-business owners each year get the insurance they need—fast. We believe a small, senior team super-charged by AI out-delivers a large org. Cursor, Claude, Copilot, and Blitzy are your everyday co-workers, so you’ll spend far more time shipping code than sitting in meetings.

WHY THIS ROLE IS DIFFERENT

  • 70–80% hands-on coding; zero head-count KPI. We grow output with AI, not people.
  • Direct access to executives — shape product and architecture without inheriting a hiring budget.
  • AI at every layer : Blitzy for repo-wide refactors, Cursor / Claude / Copilot for the inner loop, CodeRabbit for automated PR reviews.
  • $3,000 annual AI stipend + paid seats for any tool you need.
  • 10% exploration time each sprint to try new agents, write internal posts, or contribute to OSS.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

  • Design, build, and ship features across Laravel, PHP / Laravel for front-end and back-end on AWS.
  • Orchestrate large Blitzy runs for sweeping refactors; review and harden the resulting PRs.
  • Establish AI-assisted development standards—prompt patterns, validation gates, automated testing.
  • Drive technical strategy with Product, ensuring we solve the right problems, not just write more lines of code.
  • Automate CI / CD and infrastructure with Docker, Kubernetes, and Terraform so deployment stays self-service and fast.
  • Requirements :

    YOU’LL THRIVE HERE IF YOU

  • Bring 8+ years of production web experience and have nuanced points of view on various AI coding tools.
  • Default to writing tests even when AI drafts the first pass.
  • Have been an engineering management leader before, but would prefer to focus on technical leadership and individual contribution.
  • Communicate crisply—concise RFCs, Loom walk-throughs, thoughtful code reviews.
  • Stay current on AI research, blogs, and podcasts, and can cite a recent insight that changed your perspective.
