Software Engineer

About Us

We believe the future of software development is AI-native — where engineers operate at a higher level of abstraction and quality remains non-negotiable. 

Incubyte is a software craft consultancy where the “how” of building software matters as much as the “what”.  

We partner with companies of all sizes, from helping enterprises build, scale, and modernize to early-stage founders bring their ideas to life. 

Our engineers operate in an AI-native development model, using AI as a collaborator across the SDLC to accelerate development while upholding the discipline of software craftsmanship. Guided by Software Craftsmanship and Extreme Programming practices, we build reliable, maintainable, and scalable systems with speed, without compromising quality. If this way of building software resonates with you, we’d like to talk.

Job Description

This is a remote position.

Experience Level  

The Staff Software Craftsperson is a technical leadership role equivalent to an SDE-4/SDE-5. We are looking for seasoned engineers with 8+ years of hands-on experience who have transitioned from building great software to shaping the engineering culture and technical strategy of an entire organization. 

As a Staff-level crafter, your focus shifts from solving well-defined problems to identifying and solving the most complex, ambiguous technical challenges that impact our clients and our internal engineering standards. 

What You’ll Do as a Software Craftsperson  

• Technical Vision & Architecture: Lead the architectural direction for complex, large-scale systems. You will balance the immediate needs of the business with long-term system health, ensuring our solutions remain simple, scalable, and resilient. 
• Engineering Excellence at Scale: Champion disciplined engineering practices (TDD, Pair Programming, CI/CD) across multiple teams. You don’t just follow the bar; you raise it by introducing better patterns and tooling. 
• AI Strategy & Mentorship: Drive our AI-native development model. You will experiment with and define how we use AI to accelerate the SDLC, ensuring the team uses these tools to enhance—rather than replace—deep technical judgment. 
• Cross-Team Leadership: Act as a force multiplier. You will mentor senior engineers, conduct high-impact code reviews, and foster a culture of continuous learning and craftsmanship. 
• Strategic Client Partnership: Work as a technical consultant for high-stakes client engagements, translating vague business goals into robust technical roadmaps and navigating complex stakeholder environments. 
• Systemic Problem Solving: Beyond resolving production issues, you identify "class-level" problems in our infrastructure or codebase and implement systemic changes to eliminate them permanently. 

Requirements

What We're looking for 

• 8+ years of experience building and maintaining high-scale production systems. 
• Mastery of Fundamentals: Expert-level understanding of object-oriented design, functional programming, and system architecture (Microservices, Event-driven, etc.). 
• Polyglot Mindset: High proficiency in Ruby on Rails and React/Angular, with the proven ability to architect solutions across multiple tech stacks (Python, Go, etc.) as needed. 
• Influence without Authority: Demonstrated ability to lead through persuasion and technical excellence rather than just hierarchy. 
• Advanced AI Collaboration: Deep experience integrating AI into a professional workflow to explore architecture, automate toil, and peer-review logic. 
• Proven Ownership: A track record of taking a project from a nebulous idea to a successful, maintained production system. 
• Communication: Exceptional ability to explain complex technical trade-offs to non-technical stakeholders and executive leadership. 
• Clear thinking and strong problem-solving ability, with the capacity to break down complex problems into simple, well-structured solutions.
• A strong sense of ownership — you take responsibility for outcomes, care deeply about quality, and are not comfortable shipping work that does not meet your standards

Core Responsibilities

Operational Tools Architecture & Feature Planning 

• Own the feature roadmap for operational tools — Odoo, Redmine, GitHub, and adjacent systems — from business-process discovery through design, planning, and phased delivery 
• Serve as the subject-matter expert on how business processes (deal onboarding, delivery, support, finance, engineering operations) map onto tool capabilities, and where the gaps are 
• Design cross-tool workflows and integrations so that work items, code, and business records flow between systems as one coherent operational fabric 

Agentic Implementation & Modernization 

• Design agent-operable surfaces on each tool: typed, secure APIs, Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, and webhook-driven automation that let AI agents read, create, and resolve operational work safely 
• Lead incremental modernization of legacy tool deployments — upgrading versions, retiring brittle customizations, and replacing manual processes with agentic workflows without disrupting live operations 
• Optimize agentic loops that operate on the tools for cost, speed, and integrity, with guardrails, audit trails, and human-in-the-loop checkpoints where they matter 

Plugin & Extension Engineering 

• Architect and build Redmine plugins in Ruby on Rails, Odoo modules, and GitHub Apps/Actions that extend the products cleanly rather than forking them 
• Engineer enhancements to be upgrade-safe across product versions — tracking upstream releases, isolating customizations behind stable interfaces, and planning migration paths 
• Prioritize contract-first API design between human intent, agent execution, and the underlying tools 

Governance & Quality Control 

• Act as the architectural reviewer for changes to Central tooling, including AI-generated pull requests and agent-authored configuration 
• Mandate testing and characterization coverage around customizations so upgrades and agentic changes land deterministically 
• Establish operational standards — access, data integrity, observability — for agents acting inside business-critical systems 

Required Qualifications 

• 10+ years in software engineering, business-systems architecture, or platform engineering, with deep SME knowledge of operational tools such as Odoo, Redmine, GitHub, or comparable ERP/ITSM/DevOps platforms 
• Expert-level proficiency in Ruby on Rails, including production experience building or maintaining Redmine plugins or comparable Rails-based extensions 
• Strong command of business processes across delivery, support, and operations — able to translate how a business runs into how a tool should behave 
• Practical agentic development experience: MCP, LLM tooling, AI-assisted automation, or agent-orchestrated workflows in production 
• Proven track record building plugins, modules, and extensions that survive product version upgrades, with disciplined API and integration design 
• Commitment to clean, tested, production-grade systems — including when the author of the code is an agent 

Preferred Qualifications 

• Python and Odoo module development experience; PostgreSQL fluency 
• Experience modernizing or migrating legacy tool deployments across major versions 
• Background in SaaS transformation, scale-up, or PE-backed environments
