Role overview
This is a senior-level individual contributor on the Engineering Enablement team. The team builds the shared CI/CD infrastructure, AI development tooling, and sandbox environments that hundreds of R&D engineers depend on. A core part of that mission is advancing MeridianLink's AI-native development program — building the harnesses, agent infrastructure, and shared tooling that move engineering teams from ad-hoc AI usage toward autonomous, repeatable development pipelines. This role owns a significant chunk of that platform and drives adoption across engineering teams.
This is a hands-on role: real code, real infrastructure, direct engagement with engineering teams. The measure of success is how much faster you make everyone else.
What it means to be a Senior Engineer at MeridianLink
Senior individual contributors own their work end-to-end, identify problems before they're surfaced, and make the engineers around them better. Senior engineers at MeridianLink are active, daily users of AI-assisted development tools.

Writes tests that catch regressions without over-engineering the suite
Monitors shipped work, responds to issues, and follows incidents to resolution
Puts institutional knowledge into shared systems rather than individual heads
Designs pipeline abstractions (templates, shared jobs, reusable configs) that work across multiple teams and tech stacks

About MeridianLink
This is a deeply technical, hands-on engineering role and an integral part of the platform itself. You will write the code that traces agent actions across a multi-agent workflow, adopt and extend leading open-source explainability and observability frameworks, and build the primitives product teams use to surface explanations to lenders, credit unions, and their borrowers. You should have real hands-on experience with LLM-based systems and a strong pull toward the problems of trust, tracing, and evaluation. You do not need to be an expert in all of it. This is a place to build that expertise while the platform is being built, working alongside a Staff engineer team lead and architects who will invest in your growth.
What it means to be an L2 AI Engineer at MeridianLink
L2 AI Engineers handle a broad range of work independently, from bug fixes to feature development. They have developed a specialization and are deepening it. They write code that other engineers trust, ask good questions, and are starting to help the engineers around them. L2 AI Engineers at MeridianLink are active, daily users of AI-assisted development tools.
Completes assigned features and bug fixes independently, with limited need for day-to-day guidance
Designs components within a well-defined scope; escalates questions on complex system design rather than guessing
Participates in code review and provides constructive feedback
