Responsibilities
Evaluate the AI SDLC / spec-driven development landscape (e.g., GitHub Spec Kit, OpenSpec, BMAD-METHOD) and make the call on whether GumGum adopts or builds its own platform
Architect the platform end-to-end - spec authoring, agent orchestration, and validation gates - owning the roadmap from prototype to company-wide rollout
Build the tooling and services that make spec-driven development the default, paved-road workflow for every engineering team
Instrument the platform to track adoption, delivery velocity, and friction, using that data to shape what gets built next
Design for self-service, so product managers and other non-engineers can author and iterate on specs on their own
Partner closely with DevOps to wire the platform into CI/CD, Kubernetes, and deployment infrastructure
