Senior Software Engineer, AI Platform

About the role

Turn intent into production software — and build the platform that does it. Bolt is McKesson's AI-first platform for rapid enterprise application development. Instead of hand-writing every line, or vibe coding fragile systems, teams describe their intent — and Bolt's agentic harness turns it into enterprise-grade, production-ready software, with design, security, and data standards baked in from the first commit.

We're hiring a Senior Software Engineer to help build the platform itself: the harness, tooling, and guardrails that let AI agents (like Claude Code) ship real enterprise software — safely and fast. This is a build role at the frontier of AI-assisted software development.

Responsibilities

• Design and build core components of the Bolt harness — skills, commands, platform tools, and the guardrails that keep AI-generated code safe and standards-compliant
• Develop tooling that makes agentic development reliable and efficient — orchestration, context/token optimization, and reusable templates
• Strengthen the enterprise guarantee layers: design systems, shift-left security, data integration, and automated verification & validation
• Own the path from spec to shipped software across multiple environments, including CI/CD and secrets management
• Set the technical bar through architecture, code review, and mentorship

Requirements

• Minimum Requirement: Degree or equivalent and typically requires 7+ years of relevant experience
• 7+ years of professional software engineering experience
• 5+ years building and shipping production software
• Strong system-design fundamentals and clean, testable, well-architected code
• Full-stack breadth: TypeScript, Python, Go, modern frontend, APIs, and backend services
• Strong with cloud infrastructure and IaaS (AWS, Azure, GCP), containers, and CI/CD in an enterprise setting
• A proven automation mindset — a track record of eliminating toil and building things that scale without manual effort
• A customer-first mindset, with a habit of grounding technical decisions in real user needs
• Genuinely passionate about the fast-changing AI landscape and eager to build on the frontier of agentic development
• A track record of owning projects from ambiguity to launch
• Clear communication and a strong bias toward action

Nice to have

• Hands-on experience with LLMs or agentic AI systems — prompt/context engineering, tool use, agent orchestration
• Background in developer platforms, internal tooling, or SDKs
• Application security / DevSecOps or enterprise data-platform experience
• Healthcare or other regulated, large-scale enterprise environments

Benefits

• Shape a platform that's redefining how enterprise software gets built in Health Tech
• Real ownership and the autonomy to make it count
• A senior team that ships fast and sweats the details
• Competitive compensation, remote work, and a non-toxic work environment

Pay

Our Base Pay Range for this position is $137,500 - $229,100. In addition to base pay, other compensation, such as an annual bonus or long-term incentive opportunities may be offered.
