As a Developer Experience Engineer at Clarity, you will build the tooling, workflows, and AI-enabled development practices that help every engineer move faster. You will treat Engineering as your customer, identify the highest-friction parts of the software development lifecycle, and ship practical improvements that make development simpler, faster, and more reliable. This is a high-ownership role for someone who loves building for builders and wants to shape how AI becomes part of day-to-day engineering work.

In this role, your responsibilities would include:

• Building internal tools, templates, scripts, and workflows that reduce friction across local development, testing, CI/CD, deployment, observability, and code review.

• Leading practical AI adoption across Engineering by evaluating tools, designing usage patterns, creating examples, and helping teams apply AI safely in real delivery work.

• Partnering with product engineers to discover bottlenecks, prioritize the highest-impact improvements, and measure whether tooling changes improve speed, quality, or developer satisfaction.

• Creating and maintain golden paths for common engineering workflows, including new services, environment setup, recurring development tasks, and release processes.

• Improving documentation, onboarding, and self-service support so engineers can solve common workflow problems without interrupting other teams.

• Designing automation that removes repetitive work, reduces manual handoffs, and makes engineering systems easier to operate.

• Contributing production-quality code and collaborate closely with platform, product engineering, security, and data teams.

Required Skills:

• Experience building internal developer tools, platform tooling, engineering productivity systems, CI/CD workflows, or comparable software infrastructure.

• Strong software engineering ability in at least one modern programming language, with enough range to work across scripts, services, APIs, and developer-facing integrations.

• Practical experience with AI-assisted development tools, coding agents, workflow automation, or applying AI to software delivery.

• Ability to turn ambiguous developer pain points into clear problems, lightweight experiments, and shipped tooling improvements.

• Experience with modern development workflows, including Git, code review, automated testing, CI/CD, observability, and production operations.

• Clear written communication and documentation habits, especially for internal technical audiences.

Preferred Skills:

• Experience with developer portals, service templates, internal platforms, Backstage, or similar self-service tooling.

• Experience in a high-growth fintech, marketplace, or regulated technology environment.

• Familiarity with infrastructure as code, containers, cloud platforms, or deployment automation.

• Experience creating internal enablement programs, engineering playbooks, or AI adoption guidelines.

• Vancouver, BC: $160,000-$220,000

• Remote, Canada : $160,000-$215,000
