AI Tooling Engineer

Job Description:

• Build and maintain Supabase's AI tooling, including surfaces such as MCP, agent skills, and other interfaces developers and agents use to work with Supabase.
• Progress Supabase's dashboard assistant into a genuinely useful self-serve product for debugging and day-to-day product workflows.
• Understand how customers are using AI tools and translate those workflows into better product experiences, abstractions, and documentation.
• Drive an eval-first approach by building and improving evaluation frameworks, instrumentation, and feedback loops across real use cases.
• Design and improve the ways documentation and product knowledge are exposed to agents.
• Build tools and patterns customers can use to incorporate AI into their own apps, including areas like MCP on Edge Functions, vector embeddings, and agents running on Edge Functions.
• Centralize shared AI logic and reduce duplicated patterns across our products and services.
• Ensure the tools we ship are **battle-tested**, with strong test coverage, benchmarking, and stress testing where appropriate.
• Work cross-functionally with docs, CLI, frontend, API, and other teams to deliver coherent developer experiences.
• Stay close to the fast-moving AI ecosystem and make good product and engineering decisions about what is actually useful to builders.

Requirements:

• Strong experience in TypeScript and the JavaScript ecosystem, including npm, ES modules, bundlers, and browser compatibility concerns.
• Deep familiarity with the AI ecosystem, including current tools, agent patterns, and practical tradeoffs.
• Experience building developer tools, product interfaces, or platform primitives used by other engineers.
• Experience designing or using evaluation frameworks to measure AI quality, reliability, and task success.
• Familiarity with Postgres and database best practices.
• Experience with vector databases and embeddings, ideally with pgvector or similar Postgres extensions.
• Strong judgment about where AI improves user workflows and how to avoid fragile or gimmicky experiences.
• Strong focus on writing tests and validating reliability in real-world conditions.
• Strong communication skills and the ability to work cross-functionally across product, engineering, and documentation.
