Senior Software Engineer II (AI Enablement)

About this role

Aledade's AI Enablement team builds and runs the platform that the rest of Aledade's AI adoption depends on. The AI Enablement Platform Engineer is the engineer accountable for the substrate: the MCP Gateway that brokers every tool call between agents and Aledade's systems, the plugin marketplace and installer that distribute agentic capability to engineers and non-engineers alike, the model gateway configuration that determines what Aledade spends on inference and how well it performs, and the telemetry that makes all of it measurable.

This is a platform role with unusually direct business consequences. The model-routing and harness-evaluation work this engineer owns is what distinguishes a diversified, cost-optimized inference strategy from a single-vendor one. It is the right role for an engineer who wants platform depth without platform abstraction: real users, real spend, measurable adoption, and a short line between a design decision and its effect.

### Primary Duties:

• Own and extend the MCP Gateway and connector platform. Build and harden MCP server integrations (Glean, Slack, Jira, Snowflake, Salesforce, Monday, Tableau, Databricks and beyond) on the gateway; own auth, scopes, tenancy, rate limiting, and read/write policy enforcement for non-BAA tools; partner with Security and platform owners on safe-by-default access paths.
• Own the distribution layer, run the marketplace publishing pipeline: versioning, CI/CD, plugin PR review, release hygiene, and the developer tooling sync processes. Build and maintain shared plugins, skills, hooks, and Spec-Driven Development tooling consumed across PTA teams, plus the authorship guides that let other teams contribute without hand-holding.
• Own platform observability, model-gateway configuration, and cost attribution. Extend the usage-rollup and telemetry pipeline so adoption, tool-call health, and inference spend are attributable by team, workload, and model. Define model routing and build the benchmarks an...
