Role
Who you are
- 3+ years of experience as a software engineer or in a similar role
- Proficiency leveraging AI tools to accelerate engineering outcomes through discovery, design, implementation, and rollout of software systems
- Experience or strong interest in using LLMs to improve developer workflows (e.g., failure summarization, smart code generation, AI-native CLIs)
Desirable
- Familiarity with our stack: Python, Golang, Bazel, AWS, Kubernetes, Github Actions
- Built or maintained CLI tools, scaffolding systems, or internal frameworks used by other engineers
- Experience with test data management, integration/E2E test infrastructure, or bad-test detection
- Hands on experience in
- CLI development
- YAML/Jinja2-style templating
- Modern type hints and typing discipline (e.g., typing, dataclasses / attrs, Pydantic-style patterns)
- Testing with standard frameworks like pytest/Ginkgo or similar
- Shared library and service development (gRPC/HTTP)
- Authoring reusable workflows
What the job involves
- Abnormal AI is looking for a Software Engineer II to join the Dev Accelerator Team. The Dev Accelerator team builds and operates our internal developer platform: the tools, libraries, and infrastructure that let 100+ engineers design, build, test, and ship products quickly and safely
- Autonomous PR generators for rolling out migrations and linter rule enforcement
- Testing frameworks for enabling clear end to end test support with data generation and coverage tooling
- Optimizing CI execution speeds
- Developer CLI tooling: a “Prompt-to-Product” style CLI that scaffolds services end to end, environment and credentials tooling, and a broad set of internal developer scripts
- Large scale code migrations to improve the shape of the codebase for AI efficacy
- Develop and evolve the internal developer platforms that supports development across Abnormal
- Own high-leverage projects across CLI tooling, CI/CD, shared libraries, and test infrastructure
- Work across Python, Go, Bazel, Kubernetes, AWS, and CI systems to make our Golden Path fast, reliable, and intuitive
- Shape abstractions and workflows that are AI-native, consumable by both humans and AI agents
- This is an individual-contributor role with ownership of multi-quarter initiatives. Success requires close collaboration with product engineering, Infrastructure, SRE, Security, and other partner teams
Our take
Fraud involving impersonation is one of the top causes of online financial crime. Criminal tactics like email account spoofing, where the criminal impersonates an official account to steal personal information or money, are rife. Abnormal AI is a startup aimed at handling these hyper-targeted and personalised email attacks by analysing communications and identifying potential fraud before it can take place.
The fraud detection space is extremely competitive, but Abnormal AI differentiates itself through its focus on the threat of impersonation rather than a spectrum of threats. This has allowed it to amass a wealth of data relating specifically to high-risk impersonation attacks, analyzing over 45,000 signals to detect any anomalies.
Its specialised approach has fuelled rapid growth, leading to a $5B valuation after a Series D Funding round in 2024. Now, Abnormal plans to double down on product development and expand internationally, prioritising markets where data security laws necessitate a local presence. By staying focused on impersonation, Abnormal AI positions itself as a formidable force in the fight against online financial crime.
