Job Description

  • Drive enterprise adoption of GitHub Copilot, Copilot Chat, and next-gen agentic AI tools that support refactoring, documentation, code review, and complex workflows
  • Define best practices for agent orchestration-covering prompting standards, goal assignment, validation, and fallback strategies
  • Establish AI usage policies, secure defaults, and governance frameworks, particularly for semi- or fully autonomous agents in development environments
  • Collaborate with security and governance teams to identify and mitigate risks around agentic behavior, data sensitivity, and unauthorized actions
  • Design and maintain an AI Integration Framework to embed AI across developer workflows (GitHub, Jira, IDEs, testing, CI/CD pipelines)
  • Partner with DevOps/DevSecOps to enable AI in CI/CD-e.g., automated test generation, impact analysis, and change intelligence
  • Ensure safe agent operation in toolchains via version control, sandboxing, human-in-the-loop approvals, and monitoring mechanisms
  • Assess AI's impact on productivity and code quality using telemetry, surveys, and developer feedback
  • Track KPIs such as PR cycle time, AI code reuse, adoption vs. rejection of suggestions, and post-release error rates
  • Enhance code consistency and coverage with AI-driven linters, analyzers, and automated refactoring
  • Develop onboarding guides, playbooks, and live workshops to help developers collaborate effectively with agentic tools
  • Build a practice community around AI-enabled development, fostering champions, feedback loops, and knowledge sharing
  • Work with DevRel and HR to frame AI adoption as an opportunity for upskilling rather than replacement
  • Define AI usage guidelines for both modern (TypeScript, Python, Java, Go) and legacy stacks (Java 8, .NET Framework, COBOL)
  • Recommend AI-assisted approaches for documentation, test generation, code search, and migration in older systems
  • Implement feedback loops and retraining to continuously improve agent performance
  • Maintain transparency by logging agent actions for auditing, reproducibility, and incident response
  • Align adoption with ethical AI principles, governance models, and responsible use standards
  • Coordinate with platform and compliance teams on data residency, PII handling, and model control in agent-enabled environments
