The Cloud DX team owns the outer loop of software development at AlphaSense, everything from the moment code is pushed to source control to the moment it reaches production, for ~400 engineers distributed across the globe. We've built a solid delivery foundation and we're now raising the bar toward industry-leading CI/CD. Progressive delivery, canary deployments, automated rollbacks, trunk-based development, GitOps workflows: these aren't aspirations but the direction we're actively building, and we're looking for passionate engineers to help shape what best-in-class looks like.
This is a Staff Engineer role with real breadth. It requires both operational and software development skills, the ability to lead projects and collaborate across timezones with Engineering leaders and very senior Engineers across dozens of teams. You'll design and operate production-grade delivery infrastructure, contribute hands-on in Go and Python, and help shape the engineering practices a global organisation depends on.
We're looking for someone who genuinely embraces AI tooling in their day-to-day work, appreciates the productivity value it brings, and is motivated to push that further, both in their own practice and by helping embed AI-assisted workflows into the SDLC for the wider engineering organization.

Builds AI search tools for market research
AlphaSense builds market intelligence software for investment professionals and corporate teams researching companies, competitors, and business trends. Its platform brings company filings, earnings calls, industry news, and expert interviews into a searchable library, so analysts work across sources rather than opening each document separately. AI tools interpret research questions, summarize findings, and link answers to the underlying material for review. Organizations also connect their internal research to the platform and pay subscription fees for access to its software and content. AlphaSense launched in 2011 and is headquartered in New York City.
