YOUR ROLE

You are the engineering anchor of Zip’s new Internal AI team. The Internal AI team operates in a hub-and-spoke model: we own a central roadmap of internal product and platform capabilities that accelerate AI adoption across every non-software engineering use cases at Zip and we partner with those teams so their own roadmaps ship safely and well.

This role is the technical anchor of that hub. You will build central capabilities used across the org, serve as the architecture funnel for non-product AI, and operate as a central interface into Zip’s core Engineering organization — so the rest of the business can move fast without creating chaos for Foundation and Security. This is an application engineer with infrastructure sensibility.
