CTO AI Lab Architect

CTO AI Lab ArchitectAbout the LabWe manage the software supply chain for 80% of the Fortune 100 - packages, container images, ML models, agent skills, MCP servers, and AI-generated code. The rules are changing fast, and we need someone who can build the next generation of tools to manage, govern, and secure it all.Our CTO Lab is a small, senior team building what comes next. We sit across the entire platform - Artifactory, Xray, Curation, AppTrust, ML, AI Catalog, Fly, Runtime, Distribution - and our job is to figure out how AI changes all of it. We run focused experiments, prototype fast, demo often, and grow what works into products alongside our product and engineering groups.This role has two modes. In Build mode, you'll work across the full breadth of the platform - from artifact management and security to ML lifecycle and developer experience. In Scout mode, you'll be our antenna - evaluating new AI frameworks as they drop, scanning for emerging patterns in agentic AI, supplדרישות:Must Have7+ years building distributed systems (or equivalent depth) - you've shipped production software, not just prototypes.Hands-on with AI/ML systems -you've built something real with LLMs, embeddings, RAG, or agent frameworks (LangGraph, LangChain, Claude API, OpenAI API, or similar). You understand prompt engineering, context windows, token economics, evaluation, and failure modes.Strong coding in Python and/or Go - clean, fast working code. Prototypes that demo, with a clear sense of where shipping begins.Judgment under ambiguity - you can take a hard, open question and come back with a working prototype and data. You'll kill your own project when the evidence says it doesn't work, and you'll be proud of what you learned.Strong AdvantageExperience building AI agent systems - tool use, function calling, MCP, multi-step reasoning, sandboxing, and the security/governance of giving agents access to real infrastructureHands-on with MLOps or ML model management - model regist
