Job description

from Cursor careers

Our mission is to automate coding. The first step in our journey is to build the best tool for professional programmers, using a combination of inventive research, design, and engineering. Our organization is very flat, and our team is small and talent dense. We particularly like people who are truth-seeking, passionate, and creative. We enjoy spirited debate, crazy ideas, and shipping code.

About the role

We're hiring a Software Engineer to work on Bugbot. Bugbot reviews pull requests, catches bugs, suggests improvements, and is becoming a critical part of how engineering teams ship software. As LLMs rapidly mature, the surface area of what Bugbot can do is expanding just as fast.

From the model integration and agent harness improvement to the product UI, integrations, and onboarding experience, you’ll maintain Bugbot being the industry's best AI code reviewer. This is a full-stack IC role where you'll ship features end-to-end and directly shape how millions of engineers interact with AI during code review.

What you’ll do

  • Launch new Bugbot features end-to-end from defining the feature and building the UI to wiring up the backend and iterating on model behavior so that each release meaningfully improves code review quality. You can check out Bugbot blog post for some examples of how Bugbot was improved in the past: https://cursor.com/blog/building-bugbot .
