About Resolve AI
  • At Resolve, we’re building Agentic AI that empowers software engineers by automating production engineering and SRE workflows. Our models deeply understand production systems — from code to databases — taking on repetitive, high-pressure tasks and handling critical incidents autonomously, so engineers can focus on building.

  • Our founders (Spiros Xanthos and Mayank Agarwal) are the core creators of OpenTelemetry and led Splunk Observability. They have had 2 successful exits to Splunk and VMware.

  • We raised a $35M Seed round from top-tier investors like Greylock, Unusual Ventures, Jeff Dean (Chief Scientist, Google DeepMind), Thomas Dohmke (CEO, GitHub), Matt Garman (CEO, AWS), Reid Hoffman (Founder, LinkedIn) and Fei Fei Li (Professor, Stanford).

Joining Resolve AI at this stage of our journey is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. You’ve already decided that you want to work at an AI-native company that’s pushing the limits of how engineers work, and now you’re looking for the right one. 

At Resolve, we’ve brought together experienced (and successful) entrepreneurs, experts in understanding our customers, and leading innovators in AI and distributed systems. Now we need the right people to help us tell that story—one prospect at a time. Join Resolve as a founding go-to-market team member, helping us build and execute the playbook to drive repeatable revenue while also building a respected brand within the engineering community.

What You'll Do
  • Lead or own the design of large subsystems and drive the implementations

  • Follow the best software development practices, and hold the high engineering bar for the team by regularly leading design, code review and test plan reviews

  • Incorporate excellence in reliability, scalability, and performance in the design of distributed systems

  • Participate in on-call rotations, post-incident reviews, and other operational duties to ensure service delivery quality

  • Participate in customer and design partner discussions, develop a deep understanding of customer problems and incorporate those in system design

What We're Looking For
  • 4+ years of relevant industry experience with a bachelor’s degree; or 2+ years and a master’s degree

  • Strong skills in building and deploying robust backend and storage services, emphasizing scalability and high performance in high-concurrency environments.

  • Experienced with cloud platforms (especially AWS) and Kubernetes, with a strong understanding of databases and messaging systems for secure, scalable cloud-native applications

  • Strong ability and desire to lead the creation and implementation of customer-facing features from start to finish, prioritizing users and owning customer success

  • Eager to deepen expertise in AI, with a keen interest and some experience in developing applications powered by Large Language Models (LLM)

Why Join Resolve AI?
  • Make a Real Impact: Join a mission-driven team tackling complex challenges that deliver meaningful outcomes for customers and revolutionize engineering operations.

  • Shape Agentic AI’s Future: Help build the next frontier in enterprise software and define its transformative impact.
